• The watch continues to operate, even when it is not exposed to light. Leaving the
watch in the dark can cause the battery to run down, which will result in some watch
functions to be disabled. If the battery goes dead, you will have to re-configure watch
settings after recharging. To ensure normal watch operation, keep it exposed to light

This watch adjusts its time setting automatically in accordance with a time calibration
signal. You can also perform a manual procedure to set the time and date, when
necessary.
• The first thing you should do after purchasing this watch is to set your Home City,
which is the city where you normally will use the watch. For more information, see
"To set your Home City" below.
• When using the watch in an area that is outside the ranges of its time calibration
signal reception, you need to adjust the time and date as required manually. See
"Timekeeping" for details about manual settings.
• The analog time of this watch is synchronized with the digital time. Because of this,
the analog time setting is adjusted automatically whenever you change the digital
setting. See "Analog Timekeeping" for more information.

The electricity generated by the solar cell of the watch is
stored by a built-in battery. Leaving or using the watch
where it is not exposed to light causes the battery to run
down. Make sure the watch is exposed to light as much as
possible.
• When you are not wearing the watch on your wrist,
position the face so it is pointed at a source of bright
light.
• You should try to keep the watch outside of your sleeve
as much as possible. Charging is reduced significantly if
the face is only partially covered.
