Things to check before using the watch
1. Check the Home City and the daylight saving time (DST) setting.
Use the procedure under “To confi gure Home City settings” (page E-18) to confi gure
your Home City and daylight saving time settings.
Important!
• Proper World Time Mode data depend on correct Home City, time, and date
settings in the Timekeeping Mode. Make sure you configure these settings
correctly.
2. Set the current time.
• See “Adjusting the Digital Time and Date Settings” (page E-21).
The watch is now ready for use.

3. After the setting is the way you want, press A to return to the Timekeeping
Mode.
Note
• After you specify a city code, the watch will use UTC* offsets in the World Time
Mode to calculate the current time for other time zones based on the current time
in your Home City.
* Coordinated Universal Time, the world-wide scientifi c standard of timekeeping.
The reference point for UTC is Greenwich, England.
E-18
Confi guring Home City Settings
There are two Home City settings: actually selecting the Home City, and selecting
either standard time or daylight saving time (DST).
To confi gure Home City settings
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down A until the
fl ashing Hold indicator disappears from the display
and the currently selected city code appears on the
right side of the upper display.
• This indicates the city code setting mode.
2. Rotate the rotary switch to scroll through city codes on
the digital display until the one you want to use as your
Home City is displayed.
• For details about city codes, see the “City Code
Table” at the back of this manual.

Note
• Watch button functions are the same regardless of whether the hands are moved
out of the way or at their normal positions.
• Changing to another mode will cause the hands to move back to their normal
positions.
• The hands also will move back to their normal positions automatically if no
operation is performed for about one hour.
E-15
1. While holding down B, press C.
• This will cause the hour and minute hands to move to a location where they do
not block your view of the digital display.
Example: When the current time is 8:23
Flashes while the hands are moved out of the way.
2. Holding down B again as you press C will cause the hands to return to their
normal positions (normal timekeeping).
E-14
• Quickly rotating the rotary switch three times in either direction will start high-speed
movement (hand movement or displayed setting scrolling) in the corresponding
direction (forward or back). To stop a high-speed operation, rotate the rotary
switch in the direction opposite that of the current high-speed movement, or press
any button.
Moving the Hands Out of the Way for Better Viewing
You can use the procedure below to temporarily move the hour and minute hands
out of the way to better view what is on the display.
• This operation can be performed in any mode. In the case of a setting mode
(setting fl
ashing on the screen), the hands will move out of the way automatically,
even if you do not perform the below operation.
E-13
Rotary switch Operations
Important!
• With this watch, you do not need to pull out the rotary switch before
rotating it. Pulling on the rotary switch can damage the watch and
cause malfunction.
• To protect against unintended operation, nothing happens for the fi
rst rotary
switch rotation. Continue rotating the rotary switch until the desired operation
is performed. If you do not perform any rotary switch operation for about three
minutes, you will need to rotate the rotary switch as described above before it
operates again.
• Note that the result of a rotary switch operation depends on the mode the watch is
in when you perform it.
• You can use rotary switch rotation to perform the operations described below.
− Timekeeping: Enter the Countdown Timer Mode
(when the countdown timer is stopped and reset to all zeros)
− World Time:

Auto light switch precautions
• Illumination may not turn on if the face of the watch is more than
15degrees above or below parallel. Make sure that the back of
your hand is parallel to the ground.
• Leaving auto light enabled can run down the watch's battery due
to frequent display illumination.
• 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 towards your face 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.
• 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.
• To protect against running down the battery, auto light switch operation
automatically disables approximately six hours after you enable it.
E-45
To enable or disable the auto light switch
In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down B for at least three
seconds to toggle the auto light switch between enabled
(LT displayed) and disabled (LT not displayed).
• The auto light switch enabled indicator (LT) is displayed
in all modes while the auto light switch is enabled.
Illumination Precautions
• The LED that provides illumination loses power after
very long use.
• Illumination may be hard to see when viewed under
direct sunlight.
• Illumination turns off automatically whenever an alarm
sounds.
• Frequent use of illumination runs down the battery.
Auto light switch enabled

E-44
• When you are wearing the watch, make sure that its auto light switch is
disabled before riding on a bicycle or operating a motorcycle or any other
motor vehicle. Sudden and unintended operation of the auto light switch
can create a distraction, which can result in a traffi c accident and serious
personal injury.
Note
• The auto light switch is always disabled, regardless of its on/off setting, when any
one of the following conditions exists.
While an alarm is sounding
While a hand shift operation is in progress
E-43
About the Auto Light Switch
Enabling the auto light switch causes illumination to
turn on, whenever you position your wrist as described
below in any mode.
Moving the watch to a position that is parallel to the
ground and then tilting it towards you more than
40degrees causes illumination to turn on.
Warning!
• Always make sure you are in a safe place whenever you are reading the
display of the watch using the auto light switch. Be especially careful when
running or engaged in any other activity that can result in accident or
injury. Also take care that sudden illumination by the auto light switch does
not startle or distract others around you.

* As of December 2013, the offi cial UTC
offset for Moscow, Russia (MOW) has
been changed from +3 to +4, but this
watch still uses an offset of +3 (the old
offset) for MOW. Because of this, you
should leave the summer time setting
turned on (which advances the time
by one hour) for the MOW time.

Troubleshooting
Time Setting
■ The current time setting is off by hours.
Your Home City setting may be wrong (page E-18). Check your Home City setting and
correct it, if necessary.
■ The current time setting is off by one hour.
You may need to change your Home City’s standard time/daylight saving time
(DST) setting. Use the procedure under “Adjusting the Digital Time and Date
Settings” (page E-21) to change the standard time/daylight saving time (DST) setting.
World Time Mode
■ The time for my World Time City is off in the World Time Mode.
This could be due to incorrect switching between standard time and daylight saving
time. See “To specify standard time or daylight saving time (DST) for a city” (page E-31)
for more information.
