Watch Power Saving Functions This product is equipped with power saving functions to limit battery power consumption. There are two types of power saving functions, with each used when certain conditions are met. Note that while the hour and minute hands will stop moving, this does not indicate damage to the product. ■Power Saving 1 The watch will go into “Power Saving 1” mode when kept away from light for at least 72 hours. In this mode the short seconds hand will stop at the 15 seconds mark.
Charging A solar power function (LIGHT CHARGE) has been included in the dial plate of this device. Frequently exposing this product to solar and fluorescent light allows for extended use over long periods of time. How to Charge this Product Charge this product by exposing the dial plate to light. Use and keep this product in well-lit environments.
Reference Charging may take a while in dark areas and other environments that are not very well lit. (Under the shade of clothing garments, etc.) Also note that you cannot charge this product in environments with no light. (Inside drawers, etc.
Setting the Time Setting the Time You can set the time to the time zone set based on GPS satellite waves. Reference You will need to set the correct time zone when adjusting the time to your travel destination. 1 2 3 Move to an area suitable for receiving GPS information Keep pressing the “A” button to set the mode to [TIME] Press and hold down the “B” button (around three seconds) and release when the short seconds hand points to the 0 seconds mark 3 sec.
4 Point the watch upwards and wait until the data transmission results appear (the short seconds hand points to [Y] or [N]) It will take anywhere from 10 seconds to 1 minute for data to be received. ■ Receiving data The short seconds hand will show the number of GPS data sources acquired. Reference • In general at least one GPS data acquisition site is needed to acquire time information. • Press and release the “B” button during the acquisition process to cancel it.
Matching Time Zones and Time Settings Receive GPS data to acquire positional information on your current location. You can use the positional information acquired to identify the time zone and set the time and date for your location. Important Note that your watch may be set to a neighboring time zone if you use this function near the boundary between time zones. Avoid being near the boundary between time zones when setting the time zone if possible.
4 Point the watch upwards and wait until the data transmission results appear (the short seconds hand points to [Y] or [N]) It will take anywhere from 30 seconds to 2 minutes for data to be received. ■ Receiving data The short seconds hand will show the number of GPS data sources acquired. Reference • In general four GPS data acquisition sites are needed to acquire positional information. However, you may not be able to receive data correctly even if four or more sites are displayed.
Using the Watch as a Measuring Device Measuring Altitude/Barometric Pressure The air pressure sensor installed inside the device enables altitude and air pressure readings. Altitude readings are taken when in [ALT] mode, and barometric pressure readings are taken when in [BAR] mode. Important This product uses an air pressure sensor to calculate altitude readings. Note that changes in air pressure will result in different altitude readings even when standing in the same location.
2 3 Press and release the “C” button to perform a measurement When measurements are being performed (one minute) the indicator hand will point to [M]. After measurements are complete measurement results will be updated around once every 10 minutes.
Checking Direction The magnetic sensor installed inside the device makes it easy to check for north. Important Make sure to calibrate the magnetic sensor when first using this product, or whenever you feel that the measured results diverge from true north. 1 2 Keep pressing the “A” button to set the mode to [COM] Press and release the “C” button while keeping the watch level The center hand will point to north (one minute).
Calibrating the Magnetic Sensor Placing this product in environments with strong magnetic fields may prevent it from showing north. Make sure to calibrate the magnetic sensor when first using this product, or whenever you feel that the measured results diverge from true north. Important • Avoid areas close to products with a strong magnetic discharge or strong magnetic fields when calibrating the magnetic sensor.
When performing the first calibration the short seconds hand will move from the 0 seconds mark to the 30 seconds mark. 4 Rotate the watch 180 degrees as accurately as possible while keeping the watch level 180° 5 Keep the watch as it is in step 4 and press and release the “C” button once more When performing the second calibration the short seconds hand will point to [Y].
6 Push the winding crown back in to lock it into place
Using the Watch and Accessory Together for Measurements Measuring the UV Index You can use the product accessory to measure the UV index. The UV index indicates the strength of UV light. Measurement results are sent from the accessory to the watch and displayed using the watch hands. Measurement 1 2 3 Turn the accessory on When on, pressing and releasing the “Mode” button will light up a mode for around two seconds.
4 Press and release the “C” button to start a connection between the watch and the accessory When transmitting (one minute) the indicator hand will point to [M].
Measuring the Temperature You can use the product accessory to measure the temperature. Measurement results are sent from the accessory to the watch and displayed using the watch hands. Important • Temperature readings are affected by direct sunlight, body temperature, humidity and other environmental factors. • While temperature changes are roughly reflected in the temperature displayed within minutes, it may take around 30 minutes for the temperature displayed to stabilize.
4 5 Press and release the “C” button to start a connection between the watch and the accessory When transmitting (one minute) the indicator hand will point to [M].
Measuring Steps Taken and Calories Used You can use the product accessory to measure steps taken and calories used.
