REFERENCE
This section contains more detailed and technical information about watch operation.
It also contains important precautions and notes about the various features and
functions of this watch.
Auto Display
Auto Display continually changes the contents of the
digital display. Note that you cannot use any of the
watch’s other functions (except for the backlight) while
Auto Display is turned on.
To turn off Auto Display
Press any button (except for the
B
button). This returns
to the Timekeeping Mode.
To turn on Auto Display
Hold down
D
for about one to two seconds until the watch beeps.
•
Note that Auto Display cannot be performed while a setting screen is on the display.
Auto Return Features
•
After you perform an operation in any mode, pressing
D
returns to the Timekeeping
Mode.
•
If you leave the watch in the Data Bank, Alarm, or Hand Setting Mode for two or
three minutes without performing any operation, it automatically changes to the
Timekeeping Mode.
•
If you leave a screen with flashing digits or a cursor on the display for two or three
minutes without performing any operation, the watch automatically saves any
settings you have made up to that point and exits the setting screen.
Data and Setting Scrolling
The
B
and
E
buttons are used in various modes and setting screens to scroll
through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a scroll
operation scrolls through the data at high speed.
Initial Screens
When you enter the Timekeeping, World Time, Data Bank, or Alarm Mode, the data
you were viewing when you last exited the mode appears first.
World Time
•
The current time in all World Time Mode cities is calculated in accordance with the
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) differential for each city, based on the current Home
City time setting in the Timekeeping Mode.
•
The GMT differential is the time difference between the time zone where the city is
located and Greenwich Mean Time.
•
GMT differential is calculated by this watch based on Universal Time Coordinated
(UTC) data.
Backlight Precautions
In any mode, press
B
to illuminate the display for about one second.
•
The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after very 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.
