This setting only changes how the hours are presented on the LCD display.

If you need to alter how the hours are printed on the time card, see How to set the print format on the Seiko QR-395.

The Seiko QR-395 can display the hours in either 12 hour format (AM/PM) or 24 hour format (00:00 to 23:59) and can be selected from one of the following two styles.

Option Description Example
1 AM/PM 3:30P
2 24 Hour 15:30


If you need to set or alter the display hours on your Seiko QR-395 time clock, follow the procedure below.


If you are already in program mode and are continuing from a previous date/time option, you can jump ahead to step 3.

If you have progressed past the last date/time option and the Seiko QR-395 has exited program mode, you will need to start again from step 2.

  1. If you haven't already done so, with power applied to the Seiko QR-395, unlock and remove the top cover.  This will enter program mode.
