World time lets you display the current time in any one of 30 cities
(29 time zones) around the world.

When you enter the World Time Mode, the screen for the city that
was displayed when you last exited the mode appears first.

The seconds count in the World Time Mode is linked with the
Timekeeping Mode seconds count.

The same 12-hour/24-hour format you select for the Timekeeping
Mode time is also applied in the World Time Mode.

Important!
If the World Time Mode time is incorrect, correct the setting of the
current time or change to another Home City in the Timekeeping
Mode.

For information about configuring timekeeping settings, see “To
configure home time settings”.
