•The moon phases shown in the above table are those as viewed on the current date from a point in the Northern Hemisphere looking south.
•The left-right orientation of the moon phase is reversed when viewing from the Southern Hemisphere or from a point near the equator.
BACKLIGHT
A backlight that uses an EL (electro-luminescent) panel causes the entire display to glow for easy reading in the dark. Depending on the mode, pressing E or B turns on the backlight for about three seconds. See the sections that cover each mode for information on whether you should press E or B.
•The backlight of the watch employs an electro-luminescent (EL) light, which loses illuminating power after very long use.
•The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.
•The watch will emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is caused by a transformer that vibrates when the EL panel lights up. It does not indicate malfunction of the watch.
•The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
