For details about the battery operating time and daily operating conditions, see the
“Power Supply” section of the Specifications (page E-78).
Stable operation is promoted by frequent exposure to light.

Timekeeping
Read This Before You Set the Time and Date!
This watch is preset with a number of city codes, each of which represents the time
zone where that city is located. When setting the time, it is important that you first
select the correct city code for your Home City (the city where you normally use the
watch). If your location is not included in the preset city codes, select the preset city
code that is in the same time zone as your location.
Note that all of the times for the World Time Mode city codes (page E-32) are
displayed in accordance with the time and date settings you configure in the
Timekeeping Mode.
The watch automatically adjusts its analog setting to match the current digital setup
of your Home City. If the analog time is not correct even though you are sure the
digital setup of your Home City is correct and the watch is performing signal
reception properly, check the home positions of the hands and make adjustments if
necessary (page E-63).

month, and day) settings.
12-hour and 24-hour timekeeping
With the 12-hour format, the P (PM) indicator appears to the left of the hour digits for
times in the range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and no indicator appears to the left of the
hour digits for times in the range of midnight to 11:59 a.m.
With the 24-hour format, times are displayed in the range of 0:00 to 23:59, without
any indicator.

applied in all other modes.
E-58
Daylight Saving Time (DST)
Daylight Saving Time (summer time) advances the time setting by one hour from
Standard Time. Remember that not all countries or even local areas use Daylight
Saving Time.
The time calibration signals transmitted from Mainflingen (Germany), Anthorn
(England), or Fort Collins (the United States) include both Standard Time and DST
data. When the Auto DST setting is turned on, the watch switches between Standard
Time and DST (summer time) automatically in accordance with the signals.
Though the time calibration signals transmitted by the Fukushima and Fukuoka/
Saga, Japan transmitters include summer time data, summer time currently is not
implemented in Japan (as of 2010).
The default DST setting is Auto DST (
) whenever you select LON, PAR, ATH,
TYO, ANC, LAX, DEN, CHI, or NYC as your Home City code.
If you experience problems receiving the time calibration signal in your area, it
probably is best to switch between Standard Time and Daylight Saving Time
(summer time) manually.
E-59
