Thermometer

This watch uses a temperature sensor to measure temperature. A reading is taken during each even-numbered minute, and the result of the last reading is displayed on the thermometer screen. The watch also takes separate readings and stores them in memory for display in the temperature tendency graph, which can be viewed in the Timekeeping Mode. Measured temperature values are stored in memory for later recall when you need them.
Thermometer Screen
Thermometer
You can select either Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F) units for the thermometer screen. See To specify the temperature display unit for more information.
The thermometer screen displays temperature values in 0.1°C units (or 0.2°F units).
The display range of the thermometer screen is 10.0°C to 60.0°C (or 14.0°F to
140.0°F).
You can calibrate the temperature sensor if you feel that the displayed temperature
values are not correct. See Temperature Sensor Calibration” for more information.
Important!
Temperature measurements are affected by your body temperature (while you are wearing the watch), direct sunlight, and moisture. To achieve a more accurate temperature measurement, remove the watch from your wrist, place it in a well ventilated location out of direct sunlight, and wipe all moisture from the case. It takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes for the case of the watch to reach the actual surrounding temperature.
Temperature Tendency Graph
The watch also takes temperature readings at the top and the bottom of each hour and stores the results in memory for display on the temperature tendency graph. Depending on the current Timekeeping Mode time, the temperature tendency graph shows either the top of the hour measurements or the bottom of the hour measurements for the past 17 hours. From the top of each hour to the 29th minute, past top of the hour readings are shown in the graph. From the bottom of each hour to the 59th minute, past bottom of the hour readings are shown in the graph. Temperature tendency graph contents are updated every 30 minutes.
Past 17 hours of measurement values
The horizontal axis of the graph represents time. The rightmost column is the newest temperature value in memory, while the leftmost column is the temperature value stored approximately 17 hours ago (1 dot = 1 hour). The vertical axis of the graph represents the relative change from one hour to the next.
When the relative change from one hour to the next exceeds +10.0ºC (+18.0ºF), the dot at the highest point for the applicable hour flashes.
When the relative change from one hour to the next exceeds –10.0ºC (–18.0ºF), there is no dot in the applicable hour's column.
If a measurement error occurs for some reason, only a single the dot in the center column will be displayed.

Recalling Temperature Data
The measurements the watch takes at the top and the bottom of each hour are stored in memory automatically. Memory can hold up to 50 measurement records. You can use the Temperature Data Recall Mode to recall memory data when you need it.
Temperature data records are assigned numbers automatically starting from 01.
When there are already 50 records in memory, storage of a new temperature
reading causes the oldest record (record number 50) to be deleted automatically to make room for the new data. The new data is assigned record number 1, and all of the numbers of all the other records (01 to 49) are incremented by 1 (becoming 02 through 50).

Moon Age
Moon Phase
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.
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.

Lunitidal Interval
Theoretically, high tide is at the Moon’s 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.
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.

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 watch’s 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.
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down A until the
seconds start to flash, which indicates the setting screen.
2. Press C nine times to display the temperature sensor
calibration screen.
3. Use D (+) and B (–) to change the calibration value.
You can change the value in 0.1ºC (0.2ºF) steps, in a range of ±10ºC (±18ºF). The calibration value shows ‘‘--.-’’ when the setting is outside the allowable range.

Illumination Precautions
The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after ver y 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
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.

Code
Based on data as of June 2005. * The sequence of these city codes is SIN JKT.
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.
