How To Use The Stopwatch - Seiko 8B92 Instructions Manual

■ Q&A for the world time function
Q : Will the watch be automatically set to the local time when it is moved to a place in a
different time zone?
A : The watch will not be automatically set to the local time if it is just moved to a place
in a different time zone. Select the time zone where you are when you are abroad.
If you select the time zone, the watch is automatically set to the local time.
(The time difference can be adjusted in increments of 1 hour.)
After selecting the time zone, if it is within the reception range of radio signals, you
can leave the watch to receive the radio signal to set it to the precise time.
(The radio signal transmitting station can be changed by selecting a time zone.)
Q : The hands stop during operation of time zone setting, therefore, does time lag
occur?
A : The internal circuit stores the time, therefore, no time lag occurs.
Q : When a time zone for regions out of the radio signal reception range is set, the
watch will not receive a radio signal. How is the accuracy of the watch at that time?
A : The watch has an accuracy of a normal quartz watch in that case. (Monthly rate:
±15 seconds)
Q : How is adjustment made to a local time with a time difference of 15 minutes or 30
minutes?
A : The time can be adjusted on a 1 hour basis by use of the time difference adjustment
function.
When adjusting to a local time with a time difference of 15 minutes or 30 minutes.
