Setting the Analog Time
Digital Time and Date
Perform the procedure below when the time indicated by the analog hands does not
match the time of the digital display.
Use the Timekeeping Mode to set and view a digital display of the current time and date.
When setting the digital time, you can also configure settings for summer time
(Daylight Saving time or DST), your Home City code (the code for the city where you
normally use the watch), and the 12/24-hour format.
To adjust the analog time
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, press C five times to enter
the Hand Setting Mode.
• This watch is preset with a number of city codes, each of which represents the time
zone where that city is located. When setting the digital time, it is important that you
select the correct city code for your Home City. If your location is not included in the
preset city codes, select the preset city code that is in the same time zone as your
location.
• Note that all of the times for the World Time Mode city codes are displayed in
accordance with the digital time and date settings you configure in the Timekeeping
Mode.
2. Hold down A until the current digital time starts to
flash, which indicates the analog setting screen.
3. Press D to advance the analog time setting by
20 seconds.
• Holding down D advances the analog time setting at
high speed.
• After you correctly set your Home City time and date, you can set the watch up for
timekeeping with a different city code simply by changing the Home City code in the
Timekeeping Mode.
• If you need to advance the analog time setting a long way, hold down D until the
time starts advancing at high speed, and then press B. This locks the high-
speed hand movement, so you can release the two buttons. High-speed hand
movement continues until you press any button. It will also stop automatically
after the time advances 12 hours or if an alarm (daily alarm or countdown beeper)
starts to sound.
To set the digital time and date
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down A until the
seconds start to flash, which indicates the setting
screen.
2. Press C twice to move the flashing to the Home City
code setting (see the illustration below), and then use
B and D to select the code you want.
• Make sure you select your Home City code before
changing any other setting.
4. Press A to exit the setting screen.
• The watch will automatically adjust the minute hand slightly to match its internal
second count when you exit the setting screen.
• To return to the Timekeeping Mode, press C.

Auto Return Feature
If you leave a screen with flashing digits on the display for two or three minutes
without performing any operation, the watch automatically exits the setting screen.
Scrolling
The B and D buttons are used in various modes and setting screens to scroll
through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a scroll
operation scrolls through the data at high speed.
Initial Screens
When you enter the World Time or Alarm Mode, the data you were viewing when you
last exited the mode appears first.
Timekeeping
• Resetting the seconds to
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 without changing the minutes.
• With the 12-hour format, the P (PM) indicator appears on the display for times in the
range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and no indicator appears for times in the range of
midnight to 11:59 a.m.
• With the 24-hour format, times are displayed in the range of 0:00 to 23:59, without
any indicator.
• The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2039.
• 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 after you have the watch’s batteries replaced.
World Time
• The World Time Mode times are calculated from the current Home City time setting
in the Timekeeping Mode, using the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) differentials
associated with each city code.
• The GMT differential is a value that indicates the time difference between Greenwich
Mean Time and the time zone where a city is located.
• GMT differential is calculated by this watch based on Universal Time Coordinated
(UTC) data.
Backlight Precautions
The backlight uses an EL (electro-luminescent) panel that causes the entire display to
glow for easy reading in the dark. In any mode, press B to illuminate the display for
about two seconds.
• The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after very long
use.
• The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under
direct sunlight.
• The watch may emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is
due to vibration of the EL panel used for illumination, and does not indicate
malfunction.
• The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
• Frequent use of the backlight shortens the battery life.
