ZERO-POSITION CHECK PROCEDURE
1.) If your timepiece malfunctions in some way or completely looses power, it will be necessary to first
check the Zero Position of the hands.
2.) To begin, pull the crown out one ‘click’.
3.) Next turn
the crown clockwise or counterclockwise, so that either tip of the Mode hand, is pointing to
the L-TM, or Local Time mode.
4.) Now
push
the crown one ‘click’, back to the closed position next to the case.
5.) Next, while still in the L-TM or Local Time mode, press and hold the upper right button pressed for 10
or more seconds until the hands start to move and then release the button. The hands will automatically
move to the zero-position stored in memory. The correct zero-position for each hand is as follows:
- The Hour, Minutes and Second hands should point to ‘12:00
- 24 Hour hand should point to ‘24’
- Function hand should point to ‘SUN’
- The Date should indicate ‘1’
6.) If any of the hands do not indicate their respective 0-position, or if the date does not indicate 1, please
go to the “All Reset” procedure to perform the all reset and zero-positioning correction procedure.
7.) Press and release the upper right button to resume normal operation in the Local Time mode.
Remember, if any of the hands did not indicate the correct 0-position, you must perform the ‘all-reset
and 0-positioning correction procedure.”
