Operation Guide 4392

Auto Return Feature
•
If you leave a screen with flashing digits on the display without performing any
operation for two or three minutes, the watch saves any settings you have made up
to that point and exits the setting screen automatically.
•
The watch will change to the Timekeeping Mode automatically if you do not perform
any operation in the Temperature Data Recall Mode, Alarm Mode, or Hand Setting
Mode for two or three minutes.
Button Operation Tone
In any mode (except when a setting screen is on the display), hold down
C
for about
three seconds to toggle the button operation tone on and off. The button operation
tone off indicator (
) is displayed while the tone is turned off.
•
Even if the button operation tone is turned off, the daily alarm and countdown timer
alarm continue to sound when required.
Data and Setting Scrolling
The
B
and
D
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.
Timekeeping
•
Resetting the seconds to
00
while the current count is in the range of 30 to 59
causes the minutes to be increased by 1. In the range of 00 to 29, the seconds are
reset to
00
without changing the minutes.
•
With the 12-hour format, the
P
(PM) indicator appears on the display for times in the
range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and no indicator appears for times in the range of
midnight to 11:59 a.m.
•
With the 24-hour format, times are displayed in the range of 0:00 to 23:59, without
any indicator.
•
The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2099.
•
The watch’s built-in full automatic calendar makes allowances for different month
lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no reason to change
it except after you have the watch’s batteries replaced.
World Time
•
The seconds count of the World Time is synchronized with the seconds count of the
Timekeeping Mode.
•
All World Time Mode times are calculated from the current time in the Timekeeping
Mode using UTC time differential values.
•
The UTC differential is a value that indicates the time difference between a
reference point in Greenwich, England and the time zone where a city is located.
•
The letters UTC is the abbreviation for Coordinated Universal Time, which is the
world-wide scientific 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
•
The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after very long use.
•
Illumination 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.
•
Illumination turns off automatically whenever an alarm sounds.
•
Frequent use of illumination runs down the batteries.
Auto light switch precautions
•
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.
More than 15 degrees
too high
•
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.
•
Illumination turns off in about one second, even if you
keep the watch pointed towards your face.
•
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 toward 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.
•
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.
•
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.
