Adjusting the Time Zone
The device automatically assigns time stamps to recorded

The time zone setting uses Coordinated Universal Time (UTC),
which is similar to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). For example,
Central European Time (CET) is UTC +1, and Pacific Standard
Time (PST) is UTC - 8. If your location observes daylight saving
time or summer time, you must consider the time of year when
setting the time zone.
TIP: To check the time zone setting for accuracy, you can
observe the time stamp on a video recorded after you change
the setting.
