No booklet, no <strong>instructions <\/strong>on how to set the hours, minutes, year, month, or date.<\/p>\n<p><h2>NOTHING!<\/h2>\n<p>\n<strong>I figured out how to set the HOUR easily<\/strong>. You just push the <strong>one and only button<\/strong> down for a couple of seconds, and the hour flashes, allowing you to then push the button a few more times <strong>until the correct HOUR appears<\/strong> (Keep an eye on the <strong>A<\/strong> and <strong>P<\/strong>, for <strong>AM<\/strong> and <strong>PM<\/strong>).<\/p>\n<p><h2>Easy Peasy<\/h2>\n<p>\nBut then, when I tried to advance to <strong>set the correct minutes<\/strong>, I couldn&#8217;t figure it out. I would push the button again, and all it would do is to <strong>keep changing the HOUR<\/strong>, which was <strong>extremely frustrating<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><h2>Trial and Error<\/h2>\n<p>\nThrough much trial and error, <strong>literally DAYS<\/strong>, I finally got it&#8230; <strong>Once you set the correct hour<\/strong>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><h2>Hold The Button Down AGAIN!<\/h2>\n<p>\nWhile it&#8217;s still in <strong>function mode<\/strong>, hold the button down again <strong>for a few seconds more<\/strong>, and the blinker will <strong>advance to the minutes<\/strong>. Which you can then push the button to cycle to the right minutes. Then <strong>hold the button down again<\/strong> for a few more seconds until the blinker <strong>advances to the year<\/strong> (indicated by a <strong>Y<\/strong>).
