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

Timekeeping
•Resetting the seconds to 00 while the current count is in the range of 30 to 59 causes the minutes to be increased by 1. In the range of 00 to 29, the seconds are reset to 00 without changing the minutes.
•The day of the week is automatically displayed in accordance with the date (year, month, and day) settings.
•The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2099.

Illumination Precautions
•The
•The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.
•Illumination automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
•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.
•Frequent use of illumination runs down the battery.
Auto light switch precautions
•Wearing the watch on the inside of your wrist, movement of your arm, or vibration of your arm can cause frequent activation of the auto light switch and illumination of the display. To avoid running down the battery, turn off the auto light switch whenever engaging in activities that might cause frequent illumination of the display.
•Note that wearing the watch under your sleeve while the auto light switch is turned on can cause frequent illumination of the display and can run down the battery.
More than 15 degrees | • Illumination may not turn on if the face of the watch is |
too high | more than 15 degrees above or below parallel. Make |
| sure that the back of your hand is parallel to the ground. |
| • Illumination turns off in about one second, even if you |
| keep the watch pointed towards your face. |
| • Static electricity or magnetic force can interfere with |
| proper operation of the auto light switch. If illumination |
| does not turn on, try moving the watch back to the |
| starting position (parallel with the ground) and then tilt it |
| back towards you again. If this does not work, drop your |
| arm all the way down so it hangs at your side, and then |
| bring it back up again. |
•Under certain conditions, illumination may not turn on until about one second after you turn the face of the watch towards you. This does not necessarily indicate malfunction of the auto light switch.
•You may notice a very faint clicking sound coming from the watch when it is shaken back and forth. This sound is caused by mechanical operation of the auto light switch, and does not indicate a problem with the watch.
