1. FEATURES

This watch is a combination solar-powered watch that contains a solar cell in its face that drives the watch hands, alarm, chronograph, timer and numerous other functions by converting light energy into electrical energy. It is also equipped with convenient functions including three power save modes that reduce power consumption when light is not shining on the solar cell, and a "charge indicator" that roughly indicates how much the secondary battery is charged.

2. BEFORE USING

This watch is a solar-powered watch. Before using, allow light to shine onto the watch so that it is sufficiently charged. If the manual power save function has been activated, cancel it before charging. (Refer to p.19 for information on the procedure for canceling the manual Power-Save function.)

A rechargeable battery is used in this watch to store electrical energy. This rechargeable battery is a clean energy battery that does not contain mercury or other toxic substances. Once fully charged, the watch will continue to run for a maximum of 4 years without additional charging (when in the power save 2 mode). Please

note this is not a user replaceable item.

[Proper Use of this Watch]

To use this watch comfortably, make sure to recharge it before it stops running completely. There is no risk of overcharging the watch no matter how often it is recharged

(Overcharging Prevention Function).

It is recommended that the watch be recharged everyday for optimum performance.

5. SWITCHING THE MODE (DISPLAY FUNCTIONS)

In addition to the time and date modes, this watch is also equipped with three additional modes consisting of the alarm, chronograph and timer modes. The mode can be switched by turning the crown. Check the current mode with the mode hand.

6. CHECKING O-POSITION OF EACH HAND

Before using this watch, check that the 0-position (based position of each hand) is set correctly to ensure that the functions of the watch operate properly by performing the following procedure.

<O-Position Check>

1. Turn the crown while in the normal position to set the mode hand to the chronograph [CHR) mode.

2. Pull the crown out to the second click (Oposition correction position). The second hand, minute hand, hour hand, 24-hour hand, UTC hour hand and UTC minute hand rapidly advance to the 0-position (12:00 position).

Note:

When each hand is not at the 0-position, perform the "O-position correction" procedure. If this 0-position is out of alignment, each hand will not indicate the correct position.

Return to Table of Contents

O-Position Correction (Setting to the Watch Base Position)

When setting the 0-position of each hand, always make sure to turn the crown forward (clock- wise) to set each hand to its 0-position in the clockwise direction.

1. Turn the crown while in the normal position to set the mode hand to the chronograph [CHR] mode.

2. Pull the crown out to the second click (0-position correction position). x The second hand, minute hand, hour hand, 24-hour hand, UTC hour hand and UTC minute hand

rapidly advance to the position stored in memory.

x "HR" lights during digital display 2 indicating that the watch is in the correction state.

3. Turning the crown forward (clockwise) allows correction to be made in the positive direction. Turning the

crown continuously allows the 0-position to be corrected continuously.

4. Pressing button (A) switches the correction location between "MIN" (minute hand) and "SEC" (second hand)

each time it is pressed.

5. Turn the crown forward (clockwise) to align each hand at the 0-position at each correction location. Although

correction can be made in the negative direction by turning the crown backward (counter-clockwise), always make sure to set the 0-position by turning the crown for- ward to ensure that the 0-position is set correctly.

x The 24-hour hand is corrected in conjunction with the hour hand. x The UTC hour and minute hands are corrected in conjunction with the minute hand. • The second

hand can only be corrected in the forward (clockwise) direction only. 6. After correcting, return the crown to the normal position.

After correcting the 0-position of each hand, reset the time, calendar and other modes before using the watch.

Note:

None of the buttons on the watch operate during movement of each hand. Operate the buttons only after the hands have stopped moving.

7. ACCESSING TIMES OR DATES OF MAJOR CITIES

The time of date of major cities pre-registered in this watch can be easily accessed by pressing the buttons.

1. Turn the crown to set the mode hand to the time [TME] or calendar [CAL] mode.

2. When button (A) is pressed, the times or dates of major cities are displayed while scrolling up each time it is pressed.

3. When button (B) is pressed, the times or dates of major cities are displayed while scrolling down each time it pressed.

* Pressing button (A) or (B) continuously causes the display to advance rapidly.

x Cities (regions) in which daylight savings time is used are indicated with a 0, while those in which it is

not are indicated with an X.

x The time difference and use of daylight savings time of each city are subject to change by the

particular country.

8. SWITCHING ANALOG TIME AND DIGITAL TIME

This watch is able to switch between analog time display and digital time display.

1. Turn the crown to set the mode hand to the time [TME) mode.

2. Press button (A) and (B) simultaneously.

3. After a confirmation tone sounds, the watch switches the time of the city displayed by analog display and the time of the city displayed by digital display.

If buttons (A) and (B) are simultaneously pressed when in the calendar [CAL] Mode, the watch switches the date of the city displayed by analog display and the date of the city displayed by digital display (the times are switched at this time as well).

9. SETTING THE TIME (TIME IS CORRECTED BY DIGITAL DISPLAY)

When digital time is corrected, the second, minute, hour, 24 hour and UTC hour and minute hands of the analog time are corrected automatically in conjunction with digital time.

1. Turn the crown and set the mode hand to the time [TME] mode.

2. Press either button (A) or button (B) to access the city to be corrected.

3. When the crown is pulled out to the second click (time setting position), the watch enters the time correction state.

4. When button (A) is pressed, the location to be corrected changes each time it is pressed. Select the location to be corrected. (The location that is flashing is the location that can be corrected.)

• When button (B) is pressed in the [SMT] daylight savings time correction state daylight savings time can be set (ON) or canceled (OF).

• "Seconds" return to zero when button (B) is pressed in the "seconds" correction state.

• When the crown is turned forward (clockwise) in the "hour" or "minute" correction states, correction is made in the positive direction. Turning the crown continuously allows "hours" or 11 minutes" to be corrected continuously. Although correction can be made in the negative direction when the crown is turned backward (counter-clockwise), always make sure to turn the crown forward to ensure that the time is set correctly.

• Switching "12H/24H time" is performed by pressing button (B).

5. After corrections have been completed, return the crown to the normal position
