New Zealand Daylight Saving Time

When do the clocks go back one hour?

When do the clocks go forward one hour?

Daylight Saving in New Zealand commences on the last Sunday in September, when 2.00am becomes 3.00am, and ends on the first Sunday in April the following year, when 3.00am becomes 2.00am. What time do I put the clock forward or back? The best way is just before going to bed. Keep user guides and instruction manuals for microwaves, ovens, alarm clocks, car stereos, home stereos, alarm systems etc as all these clocks have to be manually changed
  Start Date (forward 1 hour)
