The UTC differential indicates the time differential with Greenwich, England.
The letters UTC is the abbreviation for Coordinated Universal Time, which is the
world-wide scientific standard of timekeeping. It is based upon carefully maintained
atomic (cesium) clocks that keep time accurately to within microseconds. Leap
seconds are added or subtracted as necessary to keep UTC in sync with the Earths
rotation.

Thermometer
Temperature Sensor Calibration
The temperature sensor built into the watch is calibrated at the factory and normally
requires no further adjustment. If you notice serious errors in the temperature readings
produced by the watch, you can calibrate the sensor to correct the errors.
Important!
Incorrectly calibrating the temperature sensor can result in incorrect readings.
Carefully read the following before doing anything.
Compare the readings produced by the watch with those of another reliable and
accurate thermometer.
If adjustment is required, remove the watch from your wrist and wait for 20 or 30
minutes to give the temperature of the watch time to stabilize.

Warning!
Always make sure you are in a safe place whenever you are reading the
display of the watch using the auto light switch. Be especially careful when
running or engaged in any other activity that can result in accident or injury.
Also take care that sudden illumination by the auto light switch does not
startle or distract others around you.
When you are wearing the watch, make sure that its auto light switch is turned
off before riding on a bicycle or operating a motorcycle or any other motor
vehicle. Sudden and unintended operation of the auto light switch can create a
distraction, which can result in a traffic accident and serious personal injury.

Lunitidal Interval
Theoretically, high tide is at the Moons transit over the meridian and low tide is about
six hours later. Actual high tide occurs somewhat later, due to factors such as
viscosity, friction, and underwater topography. Both the time differential between the
Moons transit over the meridian until high tide and the time differential between the
Moons transit over the meridian until low tide are known as the lunitidal interval.
When setting the lunitidal interval for this watch, use the time differential between the
Moons transit over the meridian until high tide.

The Moon phase indicator shows the Moon as viewed at noon from a position in the
Northern Hemisphere looking south. Note that at times the image shown by the
Moon phase indicator may differ from that of the actual Moon in your area.
The left-right orientation of the Moon phase is reversed when viewing from the
Southern Hemisphere or from a point near the equator.
Moon Phases and Moon Age
The Moon goes through a regular 29.53-day cycle. During each cycle, the Moon
appears to wax and wane as the relative positioning of the Earth, Moon, and Sun
changes. The greater the angular distance between the Moon and the Sun,* the more
we see illuminated.
* The angle to the Moon in relation to the direction at which the Sun is visible from the
Earth.
This watch performs a rough calculation of the current Moon age starting from day 0
of the moon age cycle. Since this watch performs calculations using integer values
only (no fractions), the margin for error of the displayed Moon age is 1 day.

Tide Graph
The wave on the watchs tide graph indicates the current tide.
High tide

Low tide

Tidal Movements
Tides are the periodic rise and fall of the water of oceans, seas, bays, and other
bodies of water caused mainly by the gravitational interactions between the Earth,
Moon and Sun. Tides rise and fall about every six hours. The tide graph of this watch
indicates tidal movement based on the Moons transit over a meridian and the lunitidal
interval. The lunitidal interval differs according to your current location, so you must
specify a lunitidal interval in order to obtain the correct tide graph readings.
The tide graph displayed by this watch is based on the current Moon age.
Remember that the margin for error of the Moon age displayed by this watch is 1
day. The greater the error in a particular Moon age, the greater the error in the
resulting tide graph.

If you leave a screen with flashing digits on the display without performing any
operation for two or three minutes, the watch saves any settings you have made up
to that point and exits the setting screen automatically.
The watch will change to the Timekeeping Mode automatically if you do not perform
any operation in the Tide/Moon Data Mode, Temperature Data Recall Mode, Alarm
Mode, or Hand Setting Mode for two or three minutes.

Button Operation Tone

In any mode (except when a setting screen is on the display), hold down C for about
three seconds to toggle the button operation tone on and off. The button operation
tone off indicator ( ) is displayed while the tone is turned off.
Even if the button operation tone is turned off, the daily alarm and countdown timer
alarm continue to sound when required.

Data and Setting Scrolling

The B and D buttons are used in various modes and setting screens to scroll
through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a scroll
operation scrolls through the data at high speed.

Timekeeping

Resetting the seconds to 00 while the current count is in the range of 30 to 59

causes the minutes to be increased by 1. In the range of 00 to 29, the seconds are
reset to 00 without changing the minutes.
With the 12-hour format, the P (PM) indicator appears on the display for times in the
range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and the A (AM) indicator appears 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.
The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2099.
The watchs built-in full automatic calendar makes allowances for different month
lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no reason to change
it except after you have the watchs batteries replaced.

World Time

The seconds count of the World Time is synchronized with the seconds count of the
Timekeeping Mode.
All World Time Mode times are calculated from the current time in the Timekeeping
Mode using UTC time differential values.
The UTC differential is a value that indicates the time difference between a
reference point in Greenwich, England and the time zone where a city is located.
The letters UTC is the abbreviation for Coordinated Universal Time, which is the
world-wide scientific standard of timekeeping. It is based upon carefully maintained
atomic (cesium) clocks that keep time accurately to within microseconds. Leap
seconds are added or subtracted as necessary to keep UTC in sync with the Earths
rotation.

Illumination Precautions

The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after very long use.
Illumination may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.
The watch may emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is
due to vibration of the EL panel used for illumination, and does not indicate
malfunction.
Illumination turns off automatically whenever an alarm sounds.
Frequent use of illumination runs down the batteries.
Auto light switch precautions
Avoid wearing the watch on the inside of your wrist. Doing so causes the auto light
switch to operate when it is not needed, which shortens battery life. If you want to
wear the watch on the inside of your wrist, turn off the auto light switch feature.
More than 15 degrees
too high

Illumination may not turn on if the face of the watch is

more than 15 degrees above or below parallel. Make
sure that the back of your hand is parallel to the ground.
Illumination turns off in about one second, even if you
keep the watch pointed towards your face.

Static electricity or magnetic force can interfere with proper operation of the auto
light switch. If illumination does not turn on, try moving the watch back to the starting
position (parallel with the ground) and then tilt it back toward you again. If this does
not work, drop your arm all the way down so it hangs at your side, and then bring it
back up again.
Under certain conditions, illumination may not turn on until about one second after
you turn the face of the watch towards you. This does not necessarily indicate
malfunction of the auto light switch.
You may notice a very faint clicking sound coming from the watch when it is shaken
back and forth. This sound is caused by mechanical operation of the auto light
switch, and does not indicate a problem with the watch.
