Operation Guide 5240

Important!

ξThe watch will not be able to produce correct temperature readings if you make a mistake during the correction procedure. Check to make sure that the value you use for correction produces correct temperature readings.

ξBefore performing the following procedure, remove the watch from your wrist and leave it for about 20 or 30 minutes to allow the case temperature to become the same as the air temperature.

1.While the hands are indicating a temperature reading, pull out the crown.

2.Rotate the crown to adjust the temperature setting.

Holding down Aand Bat the same time will return the temperature reading to the factory default setting.

ξEach rotation of the crown moves the hands by 1°C (2°F).

ξYou can adjust the temperature reading within the range of –10 to 60°C (or 14 to 140°F).

Important!

ξTo cancel a temperature reading correction setting, hold down Aand Bat the same time. The watch will beep.

3.Push the crown back in.

ξ After about ten seconds, regular timekeeping will resume.

Important!

ξIf you do not perform any operation with the crown for about two minutes after pulling it out, crown operations will become disabled and the watch hands will no longer move when you rotate the crown. If this happens, push the crown back in and then pull it out again.

Temperature Reading Precautions

Body temperature, direct sunlight, and humidity all have an effect on temperature readings. To help ensure more accurate temperature readings, remove the watch from your wrist, wipe it dry of any moisture, and place it in a well-ventilated location not exposed to direct sunlight for about 20 to 30 minutes before taking temperature readings.

Checking the Current Time in a Different Time Zone

You can use World Time to view the current time in one of 29 time zones around the globe. The currently selected city is called the “World Time City”.

3.Rotate the crown to move the x Second Hand to the city code you want to select as the World Time City.

ξEach time you select a city code, the z Hour Hand, c Minute Hand, and n Day Indicator move to the current time and day for that city code. For details about city codes, see the “City Code Table” at the back of this manual.

ξIf you think that the time indicated for the selected World Time City is not correct, it probably means that there is something wrong with your Home City settings. Use the procedure under “To configure Home City settings” (page E-34) to correct the Home City settings.
