Troubleshooting

Time Setting
■ The current time setting is off by a couple of hours.
Your Home City setting may be wrong (page E-15). Check your Home City setting and correct it, if
necessary.
■ The current time setting is off by one hour.
You may need to change your Home City's standard time/daylight saving time (DST) setting. Use the
procedure under "To change the current time and date settings" (page E-17) to change the standard time/
daylight saving time (DST) setting.
World Time Mode
■ The time for my World Time City is off in the World Time Mode.
This could be due to incorrect switching between standard time and daylight saving time.
See "To confi gure World Time City and summer time settings" (page E-27) for more information.
E-42
Temperature Readings
■ The temperature unit setting won't change.
The temperature unit setting is always Celsius (°C) whenever TOKYO is selected as the Home City. In
this case, the setting cannot be changed.
■ "ERR" appears while a sensor operation is in progress.
Subjecting the watch to strong impact can cause sensor malfunction or improper contact of internal
circuitry. When this happens, ERR (error) will appear on the upper display and sensor operations will be
disabled.
• If ERR appears while a measurement operation is being performed in a sensor mode, restart the
measurement. If ERR appears on the upper display again, it can mean there is something wrong with
the sensor.
• If ERR keeps appearing during measurement, it could mean there is a problem with the applicable
sensor.
