b Lower Dial Hand move to the current time for that city code. Do not perform the next operation until these hands stop moving.

2.Press Bto toggle the time for the city code of the currently selected Home City between STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving time).

3.After all the settings are the way you want, press Ato return to the Timekeeping Mode.

Note

After you specify a city code, the watch will use UTC* offsets in the World Time Mode to calculate the current time for other time zones based on the current time in your Home City.

**Coordinated Universal Time, the world-wide scientific standard of timekeeping. The reference point for UTC is Greenwich, England.

Selecting some city codes automatically makes it possible for the watch to receive the time calibration signal for the corresponding area. See page “Radio Controlled Atomic Timekeeping” for details.
