CAL. 6A32

PERPETUAL CALENDAR Once set, the calendar automatically adjusts for odd and even months including February of leap years up to February 28, 2100. *After 2032, see the YEAR TABLE to confirm the actual year corresponding to the number displayed. It indicates the year, month, and date. Before using the watch: Because the calendar is preadjusted at the factory, you only need to set the time and date, and the calendar will automatically update itself. Before using the watch, set the time and date correctly following the procedures in TIME/DATE SETTING.

a: Normal position

b: First click

c: Second click

TIME/DATE SETTING

Pull out to second click when Second hand is at the 12 oclock position. Turn in either direction to set the time and date. Push back completely in accordance with a time signal.
3. If the calendar indication is not correct after setting the time and date, check that AM/PM is correctly set. If the calendar indication is still not correct even though AM/PM is correctly set, the initial position of the calendar may not be set correctly. In such a case, adjust the initial position of the calendar following the procedures in "HOW TO CHECK AND ADJUST THE CALENDAR."
HOW TO CHECK AND ADJUST THE CALENDAR
Follow the procedures below to check the calendar, and if necessary, to adjust it. Do not check and adjust the calendar between 11:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m. If the calendar is checked and adjusted between 11:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m., the date may not change properly. In such case, first change the time to any time outside this period, and then set the date. After that, move the hands back to the correct time. If the crown is pulled out to the second click while the numeral in the calendar frame is advancing or moving back, the second hand may be misaligned from the 12 oclock position (initial position). The button and crown operation cannot be made while the numeral in the calendar frame is advancing or moving back. Press the button or turn the crown after the numeral stops. If the watch is left untouched for more than 2 or 3 minutes while checking or adjusting the calendar, the watch will resume normal movement. In such a case, start again from the beginning of the procedures in HOW TO CHECK AND ADJUST THE CALENDAR. Do not leave the crown at the first or second click when you use the watch, as this will shorten the battery life.
1. The date changes between 11:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m. while the watch is in operation or when advancing the hands by turning the crown clockwise, and between 9:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. when moving the hands back by turning the crown counterclockwise. Therefore, note the following. [AM/PM checking] When setting the hour hand, check that AM/PM is correctly set. *When setting the time by advancing the hands, turn the hour hand past the 1 oclock marker. If the date advances, the time is set for the AM period. If it does not change, the time is set for the PM period. *When setting the time by turning back the hands, turn the hour hand past the 9 oclock marker. If the date moves back, the time is set for the PM period. If it does not change, the time is set for the AM period. 2. When setting the minute hand, advance it 4 to 5 minutes ahead of the desired time and then turn it back to the exact time.

Pull out to first click.

BUTTON Press for 2 seconds. The second hand will move and stop at the 12 oclock position (initial position). The numeral in the calendar frame will automatically move and stop to show 1.
* If the second hand is not set at the 12 oclock position, turn the crown clockwise or counterclockwise to set the second hand to the 12 oclock position. * The second hand advances or moves back in 1-second increments when the crown is turned until it clicks.

BUTTON Press once. The second hand will move back and stop at the 9 oclock position. The numeral in the calendar frame will return to the current date.
* If the numeral in the calendar frame does not return to the current date, turn the crown clockwise or counterclockwise to set the numeral to the current date. * If the crown is turned continuously, the numeral moves quickly. To stop the numeral, turn the crown in the reverse direction until it clicks once.

5. Current month

BUTTON Press once. The second hand will advance and stop at the 10 oclock position. The current month will be shown in the calendar frame.
* If the current month is not shown in the calendar frame, turn the crown clockwise or counterclockwise to set the numeral to the current month (the numeral changes between 1 and 12).
7. Completing the check and adjustment of the calendar CROWN Push back in to the normal position. The watch will resume normal movement (the watch hands will show the current time again). The numeral in the calendar frame will return to the current date.
6. Current year BUTTON Press once. The second hand will advance and stop at the 11 oclock position. The last 1 or 2 digits of the current year will be shown in the calendar frame.
* If the current year is not shown in the calendar frame, turn the crown clockwise or counterclockwise until the last 1 or 2 digits of the current year are shown. * After 2032, see the YEAR TABLE to confirm the actual year corresponding to the number displayed.

BATTERY CHANGE

The miniature battery which powers your watch should last approximately 4 years. However, because the battery is inserted at the factory to check the function and performance of the watch, its actual life once in your possession may be less than the specified period. When the battery expires, be sure to replace it as soon as possible to prevent any malfunction. For battery replacement, we recommend that you contact an AUTHORIZED SEIKO DEALER and request SEIKO SR927SW(SB-AP) battery.
* If the calendar checking function is used frequently, the battery life may be less than the specified period.
Battery life indicator When the second hand starts moving at two-second intervals instead of the normal one-second interval, replace the battery with a new one as soon as possible. Otherwise, the watch will stop operating in a couple of days
* The time accuracy is not affected even if the second hand is moving at two-second intervals. * While the second hand is moving at two-second intervals, the date will not change. This is not a malfunction.

CAUTION

Never short-circuit, heat or otherwise tamper with the battery, and never expose it to fire. The battery may burst, become very hot or catch fire. The battery is not rechargeable. Never attempt to recharge it, as this may cause battery leakage or damage to the battery.
Checking and adjustment of the calendar after battery change After the battery is replaced with a new one, be sure to check that the calendar is correct. If the watch does not indicate the year, month and date correctly, adjust the calendar. (See HOW TO CHECK AND ADJUST THE CALENDAR.)
