How to perform manual time difference setting (selection)
GPS signal reception consumes a lot of energy.
Keep in mind to regularly charge the watch by expose to light so that the indicator hand points to the “middle” or “full.”How to charge the watch
If the charging status is displayed as “low,” the reception will not start even with operation of GPS signal reception.

Precautions on time zone adjustment
When time zone correction is performed near a border between time zones, the time for the neighboring time difference (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, please set (select) the time difference manually.
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.
When using the watch near a time zone border, be sure to confirm the time and set (select) the time difference manually as necessary.
