P800/P802
White Paper, January 2003
Lunar CalendarThe P802 has two calendars, one based on the Western solar calendar system and one based on the Chinese lunar system. Before the solar calendar was adopted, China exclusively followed a lunar to decide the times of planning, harvesting and festival occasions. Today the solar calendar is used for most practical matters of daily life but the lunar calendar is still important because it determines numerous seasonal holidays such as the Traditional New Year. When Chinese is the selected language, the lunar calendar is the default.
