Important under Time Calibration Signal Reception and Radio controlled Atomic Timekeeping Precautions Digital Compass A built in bearing sensor detects magnetic north and indicates one of 16 directions on the display Direction readings are performed in the Digital Compass Mode e You can calibrate the bearing sensor if you suspect the direction reading is incorrect e See Using the Digital Compass While Mountain Climbing or Hiking for some real life examples of how to use this feature To enter and exit the Digital Compass Mode 1 While in the Timekeeping Mode or in any of the other sensor modes press to enter the Digital Compass Mode e At this time the watch will start a Digital Compass operation After about two seconds letters appear on the display to indicate the direction that the 12 o clock position of the watch is pointing e The direction reading on the display is updated each second for up to 20 seconds after which measurement stops automatically 2 Press to return to the Timekeeping Mode 12 o clock position Two seconds Current time To take a direction reading North pointer 1 While the watch is in the Digital Compass 12 o clock position Mode place it on a flat surface or if you are Direction wearing the watch make sure that your wrist indicator is horizontal in relation to the horizon fe HAYO 2 Point the 12 o clock position of the wa
2. The times for the Timekeeping Mode and all the city codes of the World Time Mode are calculated in accordance with each city s UTC offset The UTC offset is a value that indicates the time difference between a reference point in Greenwich England and the time zone where a city is located The letters UTC is the abbreviation for Universal Time Coordinated which is the world wide scientific standard of timekeeping It is based upon carefully maintained atomic cesium clocks that keep time accurately to within microseconds Leap seconds are added or subtracted as necessary to keep UTC in sync with the Earth s rotation Illumination Precautions e The electro luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after very long use e Illumination may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight e Illumination turns off automatically whenever an alarm sounds e The watch may emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated This is due to vibration of the EL panel used for illumination and does not indicate malfunction e Frequent use of illumination runs down the battery Auto light switch precautions e The auto light switch is turned off automatically whenever battery power is at Level 4 Wearing the watch on the inside of your wrist movement of your arm or vibration of your arm can cause frequent activation of the auto light switch and illumination of the display To avoid running down the battery
