1.Press the button using an object with a long tapered tip such as a ballpoint pen.
When the button is pressed, the moon phase advances by one phase.
✽Round off the number of moon phases to the nearest whole number. (Example; 7.8 ➔ 8, 24.2 ➔24 )
✽Refer to the weather report of your lo- cal newspaper for current moon phase information.
✽Do not set the moon phase between 9 p.m. and 1 a.m., as the moon phase may not change to the correct display on the fol- lowing day.
