The one second lag time is only used in determining whether to reset the clock or not. If the official had definite knowledge that the clock should have stopped at 0:33 and the clock is at :29, they reset it to :33. In the same instance, if the clock is actually at 0:32, no reset is allowed because you allow for the 1 second lag. That's how the lag is taken into account.
