There are various ways to adjust the times of the watch and phone.
- Auto Time Adjustment Using Mobile Link
- Manual Time Adjustment Using Mobile Link
- Manual Time Adjustment without Using Mobile Link
Refer to the "User's Guide for Watch Functions".
If you use Mobile Link, the time on the watch is adjusted to the time on the connected phone.
Auto Time Adjustment Using Mobile Link
With this method, the watch obtains time information (time zone, date, current time, summer time setting) from the phone and adjusts its current time setting automatically.
The following explains the timing for obtaining time information from the phone.
- When the watch and phone are connected immediately after pairing is complete.
- When the watch and phone are reconnected after recovering from Power Saving.
- When the watch and phone are reconnected manually after the watch's Bluetooth is disabled and then enabled again.
- Whenever the phone time settings are automatically changed due to movement to a different time zone or summer time on/off. (This feature can be disabled by an application setting.)
Manual Time Adjustment Using Mobile Link
You can manually adjust the watch time to the phone time information (time zone, date, current time, summer time) at any time.
There are two ways to do this: using the watch to obtain time information from the phone and using the phone to send time information to the watch.
