Crawlee - how to set timezone?

Ok, I know in which country are my proxies/IPs, so I can set locale:
const crawler = new PlaywrightCrawler({
    ...
    fingerprintOptions: {
        fingerprintGeneratorOptions: {
            locales: [ ... ],
    ...

BUT! How to set the timezone corresponding to the country?

This is not a theoretical question: this site: https://pixelscan.net
checks timezone, detects "Africa/Abidjan", compares it with my IP in German datacenter
and says "Look like you spoofing your location". (attached - two parts of the huge screenshot made in headless mode with PlaywrightCrawler)

So how to set/control timezone?
