Using World Time

World time lets you display the current time in any one of 31 cities (29
time zones) around the world.
• When you enter the World Time Mode, the screen for the city that was
displayed when you last exited the mode appears first.
• The seconds count in the World Time Mode is linked with the
Timekeeping Mode seconds count.
• The same 12-hour/24-hour format you select for the Timekeeping
Mode time is also applied in the World Time Mode.
Important!
• If the World Time Mode time is incorrect, correct the setting of the
current time in the Timekeeping Mode.
To enter the World Time Mode, press the D
button four times while in the Timekeeping Mode.

summer time setting you want to

2. Hold down the A button for about two

setting for the currently displayed city on
and off.
• The "DST" indicator appears on the display and timekeeping is
advanced by one hour when summer time is turned on.
• You can turn summer time on or off independently for each World
Time Mode city. Note, however, that you cannot change the summer
time setting for the "GMT" (Greenwich Mean Time) zone.
• If you turn on summer time for the city that you are using for your
Home Time city, summer time is also turned on in the Timekeeping
Mode.
Summer time, or Daylight Saving Time (DST) as is it is called in
some countries, calls for setting clocks ahead one hour during the
summer season. Note that the use of summer time depends on
the country and even the local area.
