Thermometer
This watch uses a temperature sensor to take temperature readings.

E-16
Temperature Sensor Calibration
The watch’s temperature sensor 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.
E-18
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, press D to enter the
Thermometer Mode and start a temperature reading
operation.
• The first temperature reading will take about three
seconds. After that, readings are taken at two-second
intervals for the first two minutes, and then at twominute intervals after that.
• The displayed temperature will be updated with each
reading.
2. To stop the temperature reading operation, press D to return to the Timekeeping
Mode.
• The watch will stop taking temperature readings and return to the Timekeeping
Mode automatically if you do not perform any operation for about one or two hours.
Temperature
• Temperature is displayed in units of 0.1°C (or 0.2°F).
• The displayed temperature value changes to - - - °C (or °F) if a measured
temperature falls outside the range of –10.0°C to 60.0°C (14.0°F to 140.0°F). The
temperature value will reappear as soon as the measured temperature is within the
allowable range.
Display Units
You can select either Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F) for the displayed temperature
value. See “To specify the temperature unit” (page E-21) for more information.
To calibrate the temperature sensor
3. Use D (+) and B (–) to change the displayed calibration by 0.1°C (0.2°F) steps.
• To return the currently flashing value to its initial factory default setting, press D
and B at the same time. OFF will appear in place of the flashing temperature
value for about two seconds, followed by the initial default value.
4. Press A to return to the Thermometer Mode screen and take temperature
readings.
1. Enter the Thermometer Mode, which will start a
temperature reading operation and display the results
(page E-16).
2. Hold down A for about two seconds.
• Holding down A will initially cause Hold to appear on
the screen. Keep A depressed until Hold disappears.
• This will cause the temperature reading operation to
re-start, and display the sensor calibration screen
shown in the illustration nearby.

Operation Guide 5299
Thermometer Precautions
• 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.
E-20
Temperature Reading Precautions
When taking temperature readings, it is best to remove the watch from your wrist in
order to eliminate the effects of body heat. Remove the watch from your wrist and
allow it to hang freely from your bag or in another location where it is not exposed to
direct sunlight.
E-22
To view current tide and Moon data
Moon phase indicator
(pages E-28, E-32)
The current tide*1 and Moon phase*2 are displayed in the
Timekeeping Mode (page E-8).
*1
Shows the tide for the displayed date and time.
*2
Shows the Moon phase for the displayed date.
The Moon phase shows the phase at noon of the
displayed date. The current time does not affect the
displayed Moon phase.
Specifying Temperature Unit
Use the procedure below to specify the temperature unit to be used in the
Thermometer Mode.
Important!
When TOKYO is selected as the Home City, the
temperature unit is set automatically to Celsius (°C).
These settings cannot be changed.
To specify the temperature unit
1. While the temperature sensor calibration screen is
displayed (page E-19), press C to toggle between the
temperature units as shown in the nearby illustration.
2. Press D to toggle the temperature unit between °C
(Celsius) and °F (Fahrenheit).
3. After the setting is the way you want, press A to exit
the setting screen.
Tide and Moon Data
You can use the watch to check the current tide, Moon phase, and Moon age in your
area.
• Basic calculations to determine this data is performed based on your current Home
City setting (page E-11). You can also check the tide and Moon data in another
location by temporarily selecting the applicable city as your Home City.
• Note that the tide and Moon data calculated by this watch are approximate and are
intended as general information only. Never try to use it for marine navigation or any
other purposes requiring accurate measurements.

In the Tide/Moon Data Mode (page E-8), you can view the tide and moon phase for a
particular date and time. You can also view the applicable moon age in this mode
(which is not shown in the Timekeeping Mode).
