Adjusting the day of week

1. Pull out the crown to position 2 (time and day of week adjustment).

2. Turn the crown to the right (clockwise) to set the day of week for the current day.

• The day of week begins to change starting at about midnight and is finished

changing by about 5:00 a.m.

Adjusting the moon phase

1. Pull out the crown to position 1 (date

adjustment position).

2. Turn the crown to the right (clockwise)

to set the moon phase for the current
day.

Look up the moon phase for today in the
newspaper or another source and adjust
while referring to "Viewing the moon
phase".

The moon phase indicator does not display the exact shape of the moon. Use it as
a guide to estimate the moon phase.

The moon phase can be more accurately adjusted by adjusting on the day of the new
moon (when the moon indicator is completely hidden on the moon phase, day 0) or
full moon (when the moon indicator is straight up on the moon phase, day 15).

* The indicator may differ depending on the model.
