Set the clock on your Samsung TV
Not only does your TV or Odyssey Ark let you watch all your favorite shows, it can also tell you the time. When it's connected to the internet, you can make your TV or gaming screen automatically set the time and adjust itself during Daylight Savings Time. Or, you can always set the clock manually if desired.
Set the clock on your Samsung TV
Note
You must set the clock manually if the TV is not connected to the internet, broadcast signals are not received, or if the Clock Mode is changed from Auto to Manual.
Set the clock automatically
Note
If the Clock setting is greyed out, it is because you are in an app on your TV. Exit the app and change your TV to the TV source, and then try to set the time again.
- Using the remote, navigate to and select Menu, then select Settings (All Settings), and then select General (General & Privacy). Select System Manager.
- Select Time, and then select Clock. Select Clock Mode, and then select Auto to set it automatically.
You can also change the time in Auto mode by selecting Time Offset and choosing your desired time lapse. However, if you enable Auto mode, you may not be able to adjust the Time Zone or DST (Daylight Saving Time).
If you disabled DST when you went through the initial setup on your TV, you will have to turn it on by navigating to Settings (All Settings), and then selecting General (General & Privacy). Select Reset, and then select On or Auto. When you have the time set to Auto, many of the settings will be greyed out. If it's greyed out, it means the function is unavailable.
