For details about configuring settings for the Power Saving feature, see “Power Saving Function”.

4.Press A to exit the setting screen.

The second hand will advance at high speed to the correct position in accordance with the digital time seconds count, and resume normal movement from there.

When you exit the setting screen, the analog hands are adjusted automatically to match the digital time. See “Analog Timekeeping” for more information.

Note

Auto DST (A) can be selected only while BER, PAR, LON, or ATH is selected as the Home City code. For more information, see “Daylight Saving Time (DST)” below.

Daylight Saving Time (DST)

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

The time calibration signals transmitted from Anthorn and Mainflingen includes both Standard Time and DST data. When the Auto DST setting is turned on, the watch switches between Standard Time and DST (summer time) automatically in accordance with the received time signal.

Auto DST (A) can be selected only while BER, PAR, LON, or ATH is selected as the Home City code.

The default DST setting is Auto DST (A) whenever you select BER, PAR, LON, or ATH as your Home City code.

If you experience problems receiving the time calibration signal in your area, it is probably best to switch between Standard Time and Daylight Saving Time (summer time) manually.

To change the Daylight Saving Time (summer time) setting

1.In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down Auntil the city code starts to flash, which indicates the setting screen.

2.Press Cto display the DST setting screen.

3.Use Dto cycle through the DST settings in the sequence shown below.

4. When the setting you want is selected, press Ato exit the setting screen.

The DST indicator appears on the display to indicate that Daylight Saving Time is turned on.

Analog Timekeeping

The analog time of this watch is synchronized with the digital time. The analog time setting is adjusted automatically whenever you change the digital time.

Note

The hands for the analog timepiece move to adjust to a new setting whenever any of the following occurs.

When you change the digital time setting manually

When the digital time setting is changed by time calibration signal reception When you change the Home City code and/or DST setting

If the analog time does not match the digital time for any reason, use the procedure described under “To adjust the analog time” to match the analog setting to the digital setting.

Whenever you need to adjust both the digital and the analog time settings manually, make sure you adjust the digital setting first.

Depending on how much the hands have to move in order to adjust to the digital time, it may take some time before they stop moving.

Power Supply

This watch is equipped with a solar cell and a special rechargeable battery (secondary battery) that is charged by the electrical power produced by the solar cell. The illustration shown below shows how you should position the watch for charging.

Example: Orient the watch so its face

Solar cell

is pointing at a light source.

 

The illustration shows how to position a watch with a resin band.

Note that charging efficiency drops when any part of the solar cell is blocked by clothing, etc.

You should try to keep the watch outside of your sleeve as much as possible. Charging is reduced significantly if the face is only partially

covered.
