Precautions on time zone adjustment
If the time zone is adjusted near a time zone boundary, the time
of the adjacent time zone may be displayed.
In some areas the boundaries observed by the watch may not
exactly correlate to the actual time zone markers on the land.
This does not indicate a malfunction.
In this case, set the time zone in the manual time zone setting
mode.
 How to manually set the time zone
When the time zone is adjusted while traveling on land, avoid
time zone boundaries to carry out time zone adjustment in the
representative cities in the time zone whenever possible.
In addition, when the watch is used near time zone boundaries,
make sure to check the time zone setting, and manually set the
time zone as necessary.
