Things to check before using the watch

1.  Check the Home City and the daylight saving time (DST) setting.
   Use the procedure under “To configure Home City settings” (page E-18) to configure your Home City and daylight saving time settings.
   Important!
   Proper World Time Mode data depends on correct Home City, time, and date settings in the Timekeeping Mode. Make sure you configure these settings correctly.

2. Set the current time.
   “Adjusting the Digital Time and Date Settings” (page E-21). The watch is now ready for use.

General Functions (All Modes)

• The functions and operations described in this section can be used in all modes.

Auto Return

• If you do not perform any operation for about two or three minutes while configuring settings (setting flashing on the digital display) in any mode, the watch will exit the setting operation and return to normal display.

Scrolling

• The B and D buttons are used on the setting mode 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.

Moving the Hands Out of the Way for Better Viewing

• You can use the procedure below to temporarily move the hour and minute hands out of the way to better view what is on the display.
• This operation can be performed in any mode. In the case of a setting mode (setting flashing on the screen), the hands will move out of the way automatically, even if you do not perform the below operation.

1. While holding down L, press C.
   This will cause the hour and minute hands to move to a location where they donot block your view of the digital display. Example: When the current time is 8:23
   

2. 2. Holding down L again as you press C will cause the hands to return to their normal positions (normal timekeeping).
   Note
   Watch button functions are the same regardless of whether the hands are moved out of the way or at their normal positions.
   Changing to another mode will cause the hands to move back to their normal positions.
   The hands also will move back to their normal positions automatically if no operation is performed for about one hour.

Timekeeping

2. Hold down A for about two seconds.

• This toggles the city code you selected in step 1 between Daylight Saving Time (DST indicator displayed) and standard time (DST indicator not displayed).
• Note that you cannot switch between standard time/ daylight saving time (DST) while UTC is selected as the World Time City.
• The standard time/daylight saving time (DST) setting affects only the currently displayed city. Other cities are not affected.

To swap your Home City and World Time City

• In the World Time Mode, hold down B for at least three seconds.
• This will cause SWAP Hold to flash on the display, and then your Home City and World Time City will be swapped.
• Example: To swap the Home City (TYO) and World Time City (NYC)

Using the Alarm

• You can set five independent daily alarms. When a daily alarm is turned on, an alarm tone will sound for about 10 seconds each day when the time in the Timekeeping Mode reaches the preset alarm time. One of the alarms is a snooze alarm that repeats every five minutes, up to seven
• times.
  You can also turn on an Hourly Time Signal, which will cause the watch to beep twice every hour on the hour.

To enter the Alarm Mode

• Use C to select the Alarm Mode as shown on page E-13. ? The snooze alarm screen is indicated by SNZ, while the

Adjusting Hand Positions

The watch hands can go out of alignment with the time on the digital display if it is exposed to strong magnetism or impact. If this happens, you should adjust the hand positions.

Important

• You do not need to perform the operation below as long as the analog hands indicate the same time as the digital display.

1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down A for about five seconds until 0:00 starts to flash. Release A after 0:00 flashes.
   This enters the hour and minute hand adjustment mode.
   

2.  If the hour and minute hands are not at 12 o’clock, use D (+) and B (–) to adjust them until they are. Holding down either button moves the hands at
   high speed.

3. Press A to return to the Timekeeping Mode. Check to make sure that the time indicated by the hands matches the time on the digital display. If the times don’t match, perform the correction procedure above again.

• Button Operation Tone You can turn the button operation tone on or off asdesired.
• Even if you turn off the button operation tone, the
• Target Time Alarm, alarms, the Hourly Time Signal,
• and other beepers all operate normally.
• To turn the button operation tone on and off

1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down A until the flashing SET Hold indicator disappears from the display and the currently selected city code flashes on the left side of the lower display.
2. Press C nine times to display the button operation tone On/Off screen (page E-22). The screen will show either KEY or MUTE.

Troubleshooting

• Hand Movement and Indications

• The time indicated by the hands is different from the digital time.
  This could indicate that the watch has been exposed to magnetism or strong

• impact, which has caused problems with proper hand alignment. Adjust the watch’s hand home position alignment (page E-49).

Time Setting

• The current time setting is off by hours.
• Your Home City setting may be wrong (page E-18). Check your Home City setting and correct it, if necessary.
• The current time setting is off by one hour. You may need to change your Home City’s standard time/daylight saving time
• (DST) setting. Use the procedure under “Adjusting the Digital Time and Date
• Settings” (page E-21) to change the standard time/daylight saving time (DST) setting.

World Time Mode

• The time for my World Time City is off in the World Time Mode.
• This could be due to incorrect switching between standard time and daylight saving time. See “To specify standard time or daylight saving time (DST) for a city” (page E-41) for more information.
