Auto Return Feature
• After you perform an operation in any mode (except for the backlight
operation), pressing C returns to the Timekeeping Mode.
• If you leave a setting screen on the display for two or three minutes
without performing any operation, the watch automatically saves
anything you have input up to that point and exits the setting screen.
• If you leave the watch in the Site or Identification Mode for one to two
hours without performing any operation, it automatically changes to the
Timekeeping Mode.
Scrolling
The B and D buttons are used in various 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
• The day of the week is automatically displayed in accordance with the
date (year, month, and day) settings.
• The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2039. Going past
December 31, 2039 reverts to January 1, 2000.
• The watch’s built-in full automatic calendar automatically makes
allowances for different month lengths and leap years. Once you set
the date, there should be no reason to change it except after re-
charging of the watch’s battery after the charge reaches Level 5.
12-hour/24-hour Timekeeping Formats
The 12-hour/24-hour timekeeping format you select in the Timekeeping
Mode is also applied in the Dive Time Measurement, Site, and Alarm
Modes.
• With the 12-hour format, the P (PM) indicator appears to the left of the
hour digits for times in the range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and no indicator
appears to the left of the hour digits in the range of midnight to 11:59 a.m.
• With the 24-hour format, times are indicated in the range of 0:00 to
23:59, with the 24 indicator.
Site Mode
• The current time in all Site Mode sites is calculated in accordance with
the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) differential for each site, based on
the current Home Site time setting in the Timekeeping Mode.
• The GMT differential is the time difference of the time zone where the
site is located from Greenwich Mean Time.
• The second’s count of the Site Time is synchronized with the second’s
count of the Timekeeping Mode.
• GMT differential is calculated by this watch based on Universal Time
Coordinated (UTC) data.
Backlight Precautions
• 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, and does not
indicate malfunction.
• The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
• Frequent use of the backlight depletes the battery.
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 depletes
the battery. If you want to wear the watch on the inside of your wrist,
turn off the auto light switch.
• The backlight may not light 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.
• The backlight turns off in about two
seconds, 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 the backlight does not light, try moving the
watch back to the starting position (parallel with the ground) and then
tilt it back towards 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 the backlight may not light until about one
second after you turn the face of the watch towards you. This does not
necessarily indicate malfunction of the backlight.
