QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE TIME ZONE ADJUSTMENT FUNCTION
Q: When the watch is moved to a different time zone, is the time automatically changed to the time
of the area?
A: The watch will not be automatically set to the local time if it is just moved to a place in a
different time zone. Select the time zone where you are when you travel.
If you select the time zone, the watch is automatically set to the local time.
(Adjust the time zone by one hour units according to the original time.)
If the time zone is within the reception range of radio signals, you can leave the watch to receive
the radio signal to set it to the precise time.
(The receivable standard frequency can be changed by selecting a time zone.)
Q: Summer time information should be contained in a standard frequency. Isn’t it necessary to
set summer time manually if the time zone within the radio signal reception range is properly
selected?
A: Some areas or countries in a time zone may not have adopted summer time. Therefore, the
watch is designed so that summer time can be manually selected. However, a summer time
automatic change can be made as long as your watch is used in an environment where German
standard radio signals (DCF77) can be continuously received.
<Ex. 2>
During summer time in Germany, you used your watch with the time zone adjusted for “CAIRO.” As reception
failed and the time remained indicating summer time when summer time had ended, when manual reception was
attempted, reception was successful.
The time indicates the correct time after summer time. Checking the time zone, you find that it
displays “PARIS/BERLIN.”
In the case where a summer time change cannot be automatically reset
<Ex.>
You move to Germany during summer time from an area that differs in time zone. After changing time zone and
selecting “PARIS/BELRIN,” reception was successful by manual reception; however, your watch did not display
summer time.
In the case of summer time, select “CAIRO” not “PARIS/BELRIN.”
