Illumination

This watch has an EL (electro-luminescent) panel that causes the entire display to glow for easy reading in the dark.

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 automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
• Frequent use of illumination runs down the battery.

To illuminate the display

In any mode (except when a setting screen is on the display), press Ⓑ to turn on illumination.

- You can use the procedure below to select either 1.5 seconds or 3 seconds as the illumination duration. When you press (B), the illumination will remain on for about 1.5 seconds or 3 seconds, depending on the current illumination duration setting.

To specify the illumination duration

1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down Ⓐ until the seconds start to flash, which indicates the setting screen.
2. While the seconds are II ashing, press Ⓗ to toggle the illumination duration between 1.5 seconds (♦) and 3 seconds (✗).
3. Press (A) to exit the setting screen.

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.

Button Operation Tone

Mute Indicator

The button operation tone sounds any time you press one of the watch's buttons. You can turn the button operation tone on or off as desired.

- Even if you turn off the button operation tone, the alarm, Hourly Time Signal, and Countdown Timer Mode alarm all operate normally.

To turn the button operation tone on and off

In any mode (except when a setting screen is on the display), hold down Ⓐ to toggle the button operation tone on (A not displayed) and off (displayed).

E-24

• Holding down Ⓗ to turn the button operation tone on or off also causes the watch's current mode to change.
• The mute indicator is displayed in all modes when the button operation tone is turned off.

Auto Return Features

• If you leave the watch in the Alarm 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.

Scrolling

The Ⓑ and Ⓓ 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 at high speed.

E-25

Initial Screens

When you enter the World Time or Alarm Mode, the data you were viewing when you last exited the mode appears first.

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 Home City 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.

- The rules governing global times (UTC offset and GMT differential) and summer time are determined by each individual country.
* As of June 2013, the official UTC offset for Caracas, Venezuela (CCS) has been changed from -4 to -4.5, but this watch still uses an offset of -4 (the old offset) for CCS.
** As of June 2013, the official 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.
