Timekeeping
•
The day of the week is automatically displayed in accordance with the date (year,
month, and day) settings.
•
The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2039.
•
The watch’s built-in full automatic calendar automatically 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 battery replaced.
•
The current time for all city codes in the Timekeeping Mode is calculated in
accordance with the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) differential for each city, based
on the your Home City time setting.
•
GMT differential is calculated by this watch based on Universal Time Coordinated
(UTC
*
) data.
*
The letters “UTC” stands for “Universal Time Coordinated,” which is the world-wide
scientific standard of timekeeping. It is based upon carefully maintained atomic
(cesium) clocks that keep accurate to within microseconds. Leap seconds are
added or subtracted as necessary to keep UTC in sync with the Earth’s rotation.
The reference point for UTC is Greenwich, England.
12-hour/24-hour Timekeeping Formats
The 12-hour/24-hour timekeeping format you select in the Timekeeping Mode is also
applied in all other modes.
•
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 the 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, with
24
indicator.

• See the “Character List” for information about the characters you can input.
Data Memory Management
Data memory can hold up to 315 characters total, while each record can contain up to
63 characters. This means that 40 records can be stored in data memory when each
record contains seven characters of text or less.
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
L
to illuminate the display for about one second.
•
The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after ver y 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.
