About the backlight
In any mode, press to illuminate the display for about three seconds. In the Timekeeping Mode, animated figures appear in the animation area whenever the backlight is turned on. The backlight of the watch employs an electro-luminescent (EL) light, which loses illuminating power after very long use. The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight. The watch will emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is caused by a transistor that vibrates when the EL panel lights up. It does not indicate malfunction of the watch. The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.

Current time Current time in the selected city

The World Time Mode shows the current time in 40 cities (27 time zones) around the world. The time settings of the Timekeeping Mode and the World Time Mode are independent, so you must make separate settings for each. Note, however, that the seconds counts for both modes are synchronized with each other. Whenever you change the time setting for any city in the World Time Mode, the settings of all other cities are changed accordingly. The 12-hour/24-hour format of the World Time matches the format you select in the Timekeeping Mode. The time zone that is displayed when you leave the World Time Mode will still be displayed when you enter the World Time Mode again.

While in the World Time Mode, press to scroll forward through the city codes (time zones) and to scroll back. For full information on city codes, see the �CITY CODE TABLE� at the back of this manual. Holding down either button scrolls through the city codes at high speed.

To switch between Standard Time and Daylight Saving Time
Daylight saving time (DST), which is also sometimes called �summer time,� advances the time for one hour, as is the custom in some areas during the summer. Remember that not all countries or even local areas use Daylight Saving Time.
