2. Hold down Ato toggle between Daylight Saving Time

 

(DST indicator displayed) and Standard Time (DST

 

indicator not displayed).

 

Turning on DST causes the GMT differential value to be

 

increased by one.

DST indicator

The DST indicator appears on the display whenever you
display a time zone for which Daylight Saving Time is

 

 

turned on.

The DST/Standard Time setting you configure affects only the currently displayed time zone. Other time zones are not affected.

Note that you cannot use the Dual Time Mode to change the DST setting of the Home Time Zone you currently have selected in the Timekeeping Mode. See “To change the Daylight Saving Time (summer time) setting” for information about turning the Home Time Zone DST setting on and off.

The (GMT: Greenwich Mean Time) time zone cannot be switched between Standard Time and Daylight Saving Time.

Setting the Time and Date Manually

Make sure you select your Home Time Zone before you change the current time and date settings. Dual Time Mode times are all displayed in accordance with the Timekeeping Mode settings. Because of this, Dual Time Mode times will not be correct if you do not select the proper Home Time Zone before setting the time and date in the Timekeeping Mode.

When setting the time and date, you can also configure settings for your Home Time Zone (the time zone where you normally use the watch) and summer time (Daylight Saving time or DST).

Adjusting the Home Positions

If the time and date settings are wrong even after the time calibration signal is received normally, use the following procedure to adjust their home positions.

You can use the procedure in this section to adjust the position of the second hand, the stopwatch minute hand and stopwatch 1/20 second hand whenever they do not align with the 12 o’clock position when you enter the Hand Setting Mode.

When you exit the setting screen, the analog hands are adjusted automatically to match the digital time.

Auto DST () can be selected only while –5.0, –6.0, –7.0, –8.0, –9.0, –10.0, +8.0, or +9.0 ( –4.0, –5.0, –6.0, –7.0, –8.0, –9.0, +9.0, or +10.0 while DST is turned on) is selected as the Home Time Zone. 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 include 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 signal it receives.

The auto DST setting can be turned on only while –5.0, –6.0, –7.0, –8.0, –9.0, –10.0, +8.0, or +9.0 ( –4.0, –5.0, –6.0, –7.0, –8.0, –9.0, +9.0, or +10.0 while DST is turned on) is selected as the Home Time Zone.

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 GMT differential value starts to flash, which indicates the setting screen.

2.Press Cto display the DST setting screen.3.Press Bto cycle through the DST settings in the sequence shown below.
