 How to adjust the time zone

 Time zone adjustment

Precautions on time zone adjustment

If the time zone is adjusted near a time zone boundary, the 

time of the adjacent time zone may be displayed.

In some areas the boundaries observed by the watch may not 

exactly correlate to the actual time zone markers on the land.

This does not indicate a malfunction. In this case, set the 

time zone in the manual time zone setting mode.

When the time zone is adjusted while traveling on land, avoid 

time zone boundaries to carry out time zone adjustment in the 

representative cities in the time zone whenever possible. In 

addition, when the watch is used near time zone boundaries, 

make sure to check the time zone setting, and manually set the 

time zone as necessary. 

 When the stopwatch is operating, the reception function 

will not be activated.
