Charging Guide
After a full charge, timekeeping remains enabled for up to about eight months.
• The following table shows the amount of time the watch needs to be exposed to light
each day in order to generate enough power for normal daily operations.
• For details about the battery operating time and daily operating conditions, see the
“Power Supply” section of the Specifications.
• Stable operation is promoted by frequent exposure to light.
Exposure Level (Brightness)
Outdoor Sunlight (50,000 lux)

• The above exposure time values are all for reference only. Actual required exposure
times depend on lighting conditions.
Hand Home Position Correction
The hands of the watch can be thrown off by exposure to strong magnetism or impact.
If that happens, check if the home positions of the hands are correct and adjust the
home positions as required.
To adjust the home positions
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down D for about three
seconds, until H-SET appears on the upper display.
• The dial hands are in their correct home positions
when the left dial hand moves to C (CHG) and the
right dial hand moves to 12. If they don’t, use B to
adjust the left dial hand position and D to adjust the
right dial hand position.
2. After confirming that both dial hands are in their correct
home positions, press C.
• This will change to hour hand and minute hand home
position manual correction.

• The hour and minute hands are in their correct home
positions if they are at 12 o’clock. If they are not, use
D (+) and B (–) to adjust their positions as required.
• Pressing C here will return to the setting at the
beginning of step 2.
3. After everything is the way you want, press A to return
to the Timekeeping Mode.

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.
Power Saving Function
When turned on, the Power Saving function enters a sleep
state automatically whenever the watch is left in an area
for a certain period where it is dark. The table below
shows how watch functions are affected by the Power
Saving function.
• Wearing the watch inside the sleeve of clothing can cause it to enter the sleep state.
• The watch will not enter the sleep state between 6:00 AM and 9:59 PM. If the watch
is already in the sleep state when 6:00 AM arrives, however, it will remain in the
sleep state.
To recover from the sleep state
Perform any one of the following operations.
• Move the watch to a well-lit area.
• Press any button.
• Angle the watch towards your face for reading.

Auto Return Features
• If you leave the watch with a flashing setting on the display for two or three minutes
without performing any operation, the watch will exit the setting mode automatically.
• The watch will return to the Timekeeping Mode automatically if you do not perform
any operation for two or three minutes in the Alarm Mode.
High-Speed Movement
The D and B buttons are used to change the hand setting in various setting modes.
In most cases, holding down these buttons will start high-speed movement of the
applicable hand(s).
Initial Screens
When you enter the World Time Mode or Alarm Mode, the data you were viewing
when you last exited the mode will appear first.
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.
• 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 when battery power drops to Level 5 (CHG).
• The current time for all city codes in the Timekeeping Mode and World Time Mode is
calculated in accordance with the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) for each city,
based on your Home City time setting.
Illumination Precautions
• 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 precautions
• The auto light switch is turned off automatically whenever battery power is at Level 4
(CHG).
• 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.
• 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.
More than 15 degrees
too high
• 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.
