Power Saving causes the watch to automatically enter a sleep state and save power whenever the watch is left in the dark. The Power
Saving feature of the watch is turned on at the factory.

Note that the watch may also enter the sleep state if the watch is blocked from light by your sleeve.

How the sleep state works

Display sleep state
The display sleep state is triggered whenever the watch is left in the
dark for about one hour between the times of 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m.

The display sleep state causes the display to go blank, except for a
flashing Power Saving indicator. Alarms and the hourly time signal
continue to operate normally while the watch is in the display sleep
state. Even when the watch is in the display sleep state, digital-
analog time coordination and auto signal receive are both performed.

The watch will not enter the sleep state if it is in the Timer Mode or
Stopwatch Mode.

Function sleep state
The function sleep state is triggered whenever the watch is left in
the dark for six or seven days.

Alarms and the hourly time signal are disabled while the watch is
in the function sleep state. Analog timekeeping and calibration
signal auto time calibration signal receive is not performed in the
function sleep state.

Digital timekeeping functions continue to operate normally in the
function sleep state.

To recover from the sleep state

Move the watch to a brightly lit location or press any button. The
watch will also recover from the sleep state if you angle it towards
your eyes for reading (see “Positioning Your Arm Correctly”).

It can take up to two seconds before display figures re-appear
after you place the watch in a well-lit area.

To turn Power Saving on and off

Use the procedure under “To configure home time settings” to turn
Power Saving on or off.

Leaving the watch in a drawer or anywhere else it is dark can
cause Power Saving to trigger in order to conserve battery
power.
