Press any button to turn off Auto Display.
To turn on Auto Display
In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down Cfor about three seconds until the watch beeps.
•Note that Auto Display cannot be performed while a setting screen is on the display.
Dot Animation
Four dots in the upper right corner of the display appear and disappear during certain watch operations. This animation is for appearance purposes only.
Auto Return Features
•If you leave the watch in the Alarm or Edit Mode for two or three minutes without performing any operation, it changes to the Timekeeping Mode automatically.
•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 saves any settings you have made up to that point and exits the setting screen automatically.
Scrolling
The B and Dbuttons are used in various modes and setting screens to scroll through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons scrolls at high speed.
Initial Screens
When you enter the Timekeeping, World Time, Alarm or Edit Mode, the data you were viewing when you last exited the mode appears first.
World Time
•The seconds count of the World Time is synchronized with the seconds count of the Timekeeping Mode.
•All World Time Mode times are calculated from the current Home City time in the Timekeeping Mode using UTC time differential values.
•The UTC differential is a value that indicates the time difference between a reference point in Greenwich, England and the time zone where a city is located.
•The letters “UTC” is the abbreviation for “Coordinated Universal Time”, which is the
Illumination Precautions
•Illumination may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.
•Illumination turns off automatically whenever an alarm sounds.
•Frequent use of illumination runs down the battery.
Auto light switch precautions
•Avoid wearing the watch on the inside of your wrist. Doing so causes the auto light switch to operate when it is not needed, which shortens battery life. If you want to wear the watch on the inside of your wrist, turn off the auto light switch feature.
More than 15 degrees | • Illumination may not turn on if the face of the watch is | |
more than 15 degrees above or below parallel. Make | ||
too high | ||
sure that the back of your hand is parallel to the ground. | ||
| ||
| • Illumination turns off in about one seconds, 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.
