Adjusting Home Positions

 

Illumination

Strong magnetism or impact can cause the hands of the watch to be off. When this happens, you can adjust the hand home positions to ensure correct timekeeping.

Hand home position adjustment is not necessary as long as the hands are indicating time correctly.

To adjust home positions

1. Enter the Hand Home Position Adjustment Mode (page E-16).

The digital display will show HS, followed by the current Timekeeping Mode time. You can use the digital display to check if the hand positions are correct and to confirm whether the analog time indication matches the digital time.

2. Hold down E until each of the following steps occurs.

Hold SET appears on the digital display. SEC 00 flashes.

The second hand should move to 12 o’clock at this time. If it doesn’t, use A (+) to move the second hand so it aligns with 12 o’clock.

3. After the second hand is aligned correctly, press D.

The hour and minute hands should move to 12 o’clock. If they don’t, use A (+) and C (–) to move them so they align with 12 o’clock.

Pressing D here returns to the second hand home position adjustment in step 2.

4. After adjusting the hour hand and minute hand home positions, press E.

The face of the watch is illuminated for easy reading in the dark.

The watch’s auto light switch turns on illumination automatically when you angle the watch towards your face.
