Daylight Savings Time Technical Bulletin (Stiletto SL10, SL100)
Technical Bulletin
DST in 2007
March 8, 2007
At 2 a.m. Sunday, March 11, 2007, Daylight Saving Time (DST) starts three weeks earlier than usual in a federally mandated effort to save energy. At this time, the Stiletto 10 and 100 will not be able to automatically compensate for this recent change. If you live in a time zone which observes DST the time on your Stiletto will be one hour behind until April 1st, the previously observed beginning of DST. On April 1st, 2007, the time setting on the unit will be corrected.
In general, your device will continue to operate normally during the brief period the time setting is incorrect. There will be no impact to your ability to receive programming or use the LOVE function. However, if you intend to use timer recordings during this period, you will need to take steps to compensate for this offset.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)
Q. What should you do if you use timer recordings?
A. Following the beginning of DST in your area, you will need to temporarily select the
next neighboring time zone to your east until the previously observed beginning of DST,
as follows:

| Pacific | Mountain | Pacific |
| Mountain | Central | Mountain |

| Eastern | Atlantic | Eastern |
Q. What happens in the fall when DST ends?
A. We anticipate having a software update in place well before then that will permanently address this problem.
