World Time digitally displays the current time in one of 48 cities (29 time zones) around the world. A simple operation swaps your Home City with the currently selected World Time City.
The times kept in the World Time Mode are synchronized with the time being kept in the Timekeeping Mode. If you feel that there is an error in any World Time Mode time, check to make sure you have the correct city selected as your Home City. Also check to make sure that the current time as shown in the Timekeeping Mode is correct.
Times in the World Time Mode are based on UTC offsets. See the “City Code Table” at the back of this manual for information about the UTC offsets that are supported.
1. In the World Time Mode, press D to display the city
code (time zone) whose Standard Time/Daylight Saving Time setting you want to change.
2. Hold down A for about two seconds to toggle between
Daylight Saving Time (DST indicator displayed) and Standard Time ( DST indicator not displayed).
Holding down A will initially cause “Hold” to appear on the screen. Keep A depressed until “Hold” disappears.
The DST indicator is shown in the lower display while Daylight Saving Time is turned on.
You can turn on DST individually for each city code, except UTC.
Turning on DST for the city code that is currently selected as your Home City will turn on DST for normal timekeeping.
Alarms
When an alarm is turned on, the alarm tone will sound when its alarm time is reached. One of the alarms is a snooze alarm, while the other four are daily alarms. You also can turn on an Hourly Time Signal that causes the watch to beep twice every hour on the hour.

Swapping your Home City and World Time City
You can use the procedure below to swap your Home City and World Time City. This changes your Home City to your World Time City, and your World Time City to your Home City. This capability can come in handy when you frequently travel between two cities in different time zones.
To swap your Home City and World Time City
1. In the World Time Mode, use D to select the World Time City you want.
2. Press A and B at the same time until the watch beeps.
This will make the World Time City you selected in step 1 your Home City, and cause the hour and minute hands to move to the current time in that city. At the same time, it will change the Home City you had selected prior to step 2 your World Time City, and cause the content of lower display to change accordingly.
After swapping the Home City and World Time City, the watch stays in the World Time Mode with the city that was selected as the Home City prior to step 2 now displayed as the World Time City.

Alarm Operation
The alarm tone sounds at the preset time for 10 seconds, regardless of the mode the watch is in. In the case of the snooze alarm, the alarm operation is performed a total of seven times, every five minutes, or until you turn the alarm off (page E-27).
Alarm and Hourly Time Signal operations are performed in accordance with the current time in your Home City, as kept in the Timekeeping Mode.
To stop the alarm tone after it starts to sound, press any button.
Performing any one of the following operations during a 5-minute interval between
snooze alarms cancels the current snooze alarm operation.

Auto Return Features
If you leave the watch with a flashing setting on the display for two or three minutes without performing any operation, the watch will exit the setting mode automatically.
The watch will return to the Timekeeping Mode automatically if you do not perform any operation for two or three minutes in the Alarm Mode.
E-36
Illumination Precautions
Illumination may be difficult to see when viewed under direct sunlight.
Illumination turns off automatically whenever an alarm sounds.
Illumination turns off automatically depends on the current illumination duration
setting.
Frequent use of illumination runs down the battery.
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.

High-Speed Movement
The D and B buttons are used to change setting in various setting modes. In most
cases, holding down these buttons will start high-speed movement.
Initial Screens
When you enter the Stopwatch Mode, World Time Mode or Alarm Mode, the data you were viewing when you last exited the mode will appear first.
Timekeeping
Resetting the seconds to 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
without changing the minutes.
The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2099.
The watch’s 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 when battery has replaced.
The current time for all city codes in the Timekeeping Mode and World Time Mode is calculated in accordance with the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) for each city, based on your Home City time setting.
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.
