•After confirming that the speed hand is in its correct home position, press C.

3.Check the positions of the hour and minute hands.

•The hands are in the correct home positions if they are pointed at 12 o’clock. If they aren’t, use D (clockwise) and B(counterclockwise) to adjust their positions.

4.When everything is the way you want, press Ato return to regular timekeeping.

•This will cause the hour and minute hands to move to the current Timekeeping Mode time and the speed hand to move to the 0 position.

•Pressing C here will return to the setting at the beginning of step 2.

Reference

This section contains more detailed and technical information about watch operation. It also contains important precautions and notes about the various features and functions of this watch.

Auto Return Features

•If you leave the watch with a flashing setting on the display for two or three minutes without performing any operation, the watch will exit the setting mode automatically.

•The watch will return to the Timekeeping Mode automatically if you do not perform any operation for two or three minutes in the Alarm Mode.

High-Speed Movement

•The D and Bbuttons are used to change setting in various setting modes. In most cases, holding down these buttons will start high-speed movement.

Initial Screens

When you enter the Stopwatch Mode, World Time Mode or Alarm Mode, the data you were viewing when you last exited the mode will appear first.

Timekeeping

• Resetting the seconds to 00 while the current count is in the range of 30 to 59

causes the minutes to be increased by 1. In the range of 00 to 29, the seconds are

reset to 00 without changing the minutes.

• The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2099.

• The watch’s built-in full automatic calendar makes allowances for different month

lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no reason to change

it except when battery has replaced.

• The current time for all city codes in the Timekeeping Mode and World Time Mode is

Illumination Precautions

•Illumination may be difficult 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

too high

more than 15 degrees above or below parallel. Make

 

sure that the back of your hand is parallel to the ground.

 

• Illumination turns off in about 1.5 seconds or 3 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 toward 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.

•Based on data as of June 2009.

•The rules governing global times (UTC offset and GMT differential) and summer time are determined by each individual country.
