4. Use E (+) and B (–) to change the displayed calibration by 0.1°C (0.2°F) steps.
• To return the currently flashing value to its initial factory default setting,
press E and B at the same time. OFF will appear in place of the flashing
temperature value for about one second, followed by the initial default value.
5. Press A to return to the Digital Compass/Thermometer Mode screen, and then
take direction and temperature readings.
Thermometer Precautions
• Temperature measurements are affected by your body temperature (while you are
wearing the watch), direct sunlight, and moisture. To achieve a more accurate
temperature measurement, remove the watch from your wrist, place it in a well
ventilated location out of direct sunlight, and wipe all moisture from the case. It
takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes for the case of the watch to reach the actual
surrounding temperature.

Moon Data
The Moon phase and Moon age information that appears first when you enter the
Moon Data Mode shows the data at noon for your currently selected Home City on the
current date, according to the Timekeeping Mode. After that you can specify another
date to view data.
• If the Moon data is not correct, check your Timekeeping Mode settings and correct
them if necessary.
• The Moon phase is displayed in the Timekeeping Mode, and the Moon Data Mode.
• If the Moon phase indicator shows a phase that is a mirror image of the actual
moon phase in your area, you can use the procedure under “Reversing the
Displayed Moon Phase” (page E-66) to change it.
• Use the Moon Data Screen to specify the Moon Data date. You can use E (+) to
change the displayed date in one-day increments. Pressing E will display the year
of the displayed date.
E-66
Reversing the Displayed Moon Phase
The left-right (east-west) appearance of the Moon depends on whether the Moon is
north of you (northerly view) or south of you (southerly view) as you view it.
You can use the procedure below to reverse the displayed Moon phase so it matches
the actual appearance of the Moon where you are located.
• To determine the viewing direction of the Moon, use a compass to take a direction
reading of the Moon at its meridian passage.
• For information about the Moon phase indicator, see “Moon Phase Indicator” (page
E-68).
E-67
To reverse the displayed Moon phase
1. In the Moon Data Mode, hold down A until the Moon
phase indicator starts to flash.
• This is the indicator switching screen.
2. Press E to toggle the Moon phase indicator between
the southerly view (indicated by ) and northerly
view (indicated by ).
• Northerly view: Moon is north of you.
• Southerly view: Moon is south of you.
3. When the Moon phase indicator setting is the way you
want, press E to exit the switching screen and return
to the Moon Data Mode screen.

Moon Phase Indicator
The Moon phase indicator of this watch indicates the
current phase of the Moon as shown below. It is based on
the view of the left side of the moon at meridian transit
from the northern hemisphere of the Earth. If the
appearance of the Moon phase indicator is reversed from
the actual Moon as viewed from your location, you can
use the procedure under “To reverse the displayed Moon
phase” (page E-67) to change the indicator.
