Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Initial Time Setting: Press and hold the 'G' button to enter time setting mode. Use the 'ADJUST' button to cycle through settings (seconds, hours, minutes, year, month, day) and the 'MODE' button to adjust values. Press 'G' to confirm.
- World Time: Press the 'MODE' button until 'WT' appears. Use the 'START/STOP' button to select a city code and the 'LIGHT' button to switch between Standard Time (ST) and Daylight Saving Time (DST).
- Alarms & Timers: Cycle through modes using the 'MODE' button to access Alarm (ALM), Hourly Time Signal (SIG), and Countdown Timer (TMR) functions. Set these using the 'ADJUST', 'START/STOP', and 'LIGHT' buttons as indicated on the watch face.
Compatibility:
This is a standalone analog-digital watch and does not require connection to a smartphone or other devices for its core functions. All features are operated directly on the watch.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the watch and band regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using solvents or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the resin. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly.
- Water Resistance: Always ensure the crown is pushed in and all buttons are fully returned to their normal position before exposing the watch to water. The 200m rating is suitable for swimming and recreational diving; avoid use with high-velocity water (e.g., water skiing) or for deep-sea diving unless properly equipped.
- Battery Replacement: The battery (SR726W x2) typically lasts about 3 years. If the display becomes dim or features stop working, it's time for a replacement. It is recommended to have this done by a professional to maintain water resistance integrity.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
