[NOTE]
A
If you adjust the day of month when a time between 9:00 p.m. and 12:00
midnight is being displayed, the day of month sometimes does not change to the
next day even if the actual date changes. Avoid changing the day of month
during this time period.
B The day of month indicated by this watch follows a 31-day cycle. To advance
to the 1st of the next month after a short month (a month having 30 days or
February), pull out the crown to position 1 and turn it to the left.
C Avoid adjusting the month when the day hand indicates a day from the 31st to
the 2nd.
To make adjustment during this period, first set the day of month outside the
range of the 31st to the 2nd, and then adjust the month. Then, set the day of
month that the day hand should point to.
