Operation Guide 3422

*
In December 2007, Venezuela changed its offset from –4 to –4.5. Note,
however, that this watch displays an offset of –4 (the old offset) for the CCS
(Caracas, Venezuela) city code.
**
The above is current as of December 2012. This watch does not refl ect the
change in the Moscow (MOW) time offset to +4. Because of this, you should
leave the summer time setting turned on (which advances the time by one hour)
for Moscow (MOW).

The rules governing global times (UTC offset and GMT differential) and summer
time are determined by each individual country.

x
Under certain conditions, illumination may not turn on until about one second after
you turn the face of the watch towards you. This does not necessarily indicate
malfunction of the auto light switch.
x
You may notice a very faint clicking sound coming from the watch when it is shaken
back and forth. This sound is caused by mechanical operation of the auto light
switch, and does not indicate a problem with the watch.
E-41
Auto light switch precautions
x
Avoid wearing the watch on the inside of your wrist. Doing so causes the auto light
switch to operate when it is not needed, which shortens battery life. If you want to
wear the watch on the inside of your wrist, turn off the auto light switch feature.
x
Illumination may not turn on if the face of the watch is more
than 15 degrees above or below parallel. Make sure that the
back of your hand is parallel to the ground.
x
Illumination turns off after the preset illumination duration (see
“To specify the illumination duration” (page E-32)), even if you
keep the watch pointed towards your face.
x
Static electricity or magnetic force can interfere with proper
operation of the auto light switch. If illumination does not turn
on, try moving the watch back to the starting position (parallel
with the ground) and then tilt it back towards you again. If this
does not work, drop your arm all the way down so it hangs at
your side, and then bring it back up again.
E-40
x
The letters “UTC” is the abbreviation for “Coordinated Universal Time”, which is the
world-wide scientifi c standard of timekeeping. It is based upon carefully maintained
atomic (cesium) clocks that keep time accurately to within microseconds. Leap
seconds are added or subtracted as necessary to keep UTC in sync with the Earth’s
rotation.
Illumination Precautions
x
Illumination loses power after very long use.
x
Illumination may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.
x
Illumination turns off automatically whenever an alarm sounds.
x
Frequent use of illumination runs down the battery.
