Longines CONQUEST V.H.P. Manual

FIRST USE AND RESYNCHRONISATION
THE WATCH IS DELIVERED IN 'ENERGY-SAVING' MODE
The crown is extended, the hands are at twelve o'clock. Once the crown has been pushed
in, the watch automatically changes to the Swiss time and date. It must then be set to
the local time. If the user extends the crown once again, the hands return to twelve
o'clock and the watch goes back into 'energy-saving' mode after one minute. Once the
crown has been pushed in, the watch automatically changes to the local time.
ADJUSTING THE TIME
Pull the crown out to position . Adjust the hands by
turning the crown in either direction. The time can be
set minute by minute or hour by hour (quick setting ),
by turning the crown either slowly or vigorously .
Push the crown back in to position .
The perpetual calendar no longer requires correcting
the date.
RESYNCHRONISATION
If the battery is exhausted (or removed from the movement more than one day), the
watch needs to be totally resynchronised (reprogrammed). All the functions are affected.
If the battery is removed from the movement less than one day, only the hour needs to
be resynchronised.
Only approved service centres are authorised to change the battery and synchronise
