To turn the Auto Display on

Hold down Cfor one to two seconds until the watch beeps.

•Note that the Auto Display function cannot be performed while you are making settings.

Auto Return Features

•If you leave a screen with flashing digits or a cursor on the display for two or three minutes without performing any operation, the watch automatically saves anything you have input up to that point and exits the setting screen.

•If you leave the watch in Telememo or Alarm Mode for about two or three minutes without performing any operation, it automatically changes to the Timekeeping Mode.

Data and Setting Scrolling

The B and D buttons are used in various modes and setting screens to scroll through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a scroll operation scrolls through the data at high speed.

Initial Screens

When you enter the Telememo or World Time Mode, the data you were viewing when you last exited the mode appears first.

World Time

•The current time in all World Time Mode cities is calculated in accordance with the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) differential for each city, based on the current Home City time setting in the Timekeeping Mode.

•Daylight Saving Time (DST) advances the time setting by one hour from Standard Time. Remember that not all countries or even local areas use Daylight Saving Time.

•The GMT differential is the time difference of the time zone where the city is located from Greenwich Mean Time.

•GMT differential is calculated by this watch based on Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) data.

Backlight Precautions

In any mode, press Lto illuminate the display for about two seconds.

•The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after very long use.

•The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.

•The watch may emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is due to vibration of the EL panel used for illumination, and does not indicate malfunction.

•The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.

•Frequent use of the backlight shortens the battery life.
