different month lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no
reason to change it except after the replacement of the watch’s battery.

advances the time for one hour, as is the custom in some areas during the
summer. Remember that not all countries or even local areas use Daylight Saving
Time.
ABOUT THE BACKLIGHT
Press
to illuminate the display for about 3 seconds.
The backlight of this watch employs an electro-luminescent (EL) light, which loses
its illuminating power after very long term use.
Frequent use of the backlight shortens the battery life.
The watch emits an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This does
not indicate malfunction of the watch.
The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under
direct sunlight.
The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
