HOW TO USE YOUR ASTRON 3X22 WATCH

How to set the correct time by receiving GPS signals

To set the correct time and ensure that the GPS signals are being received from the satellite, start by going outdoors with a clear view of the sky.

Press and hold the top right pusher for three seconds. All hands will move to the 12 o’clock position and the watch will then search for GPS signals.

This operation can take up to two minutes, when it is complete the second hand will point to Y if it was successful or N if it was not.
These steps can be repeated if needed.

How to adjust the time manually

The time can also be adjusted manually by pulling the crown out to the first click position. Turn the crown clockwise to advance the time and turn it anti-clockwise to move the time backwards. This will happen in one hour increments. Once complete, push the crown back in.

The time can also be adjusted in 15 minute increments. This can be done by pulling the crown out to the second click position. Turn the crown clockwise to move the time forward by 15 minutes and anticlockwise to go back. Once complete, push the crown back in.

How to set DST (Daylight Saving Time)

To adjust Daylight Saving Time manually start by pulling the crown out to the first click position. Turn the crown clockwise to advance the time and turn it anti-clockwise to move the time backwards. This will happen in one hour increments. Once complete, push the crown back in.

How to enable and disable In-Flight mode

In-Flight mode can be enabled by pulling out the crown to the first click position, pressing the lower right pusher for three seconds and pushing the crown back in. The second hand will move to the 42 second position.

To disable In-Flight mode, simply repeat these steps. You will know this has been successful when the second hand moves to the 12 o’clock position.


How to read the charge indicator hand and charge your watch

You can check the charge status of your watch by pressing and releasing the lower right pusher. The second hand will advance to indicate the charge. The second hand will advance to 30 for a full charge, 20 for a half charge and 10 for a low charge. Your watch will need to be showing either a full or half charge in order to work normally and receive GPS signals.

When your watch urgently needs to be charged, the second hand will move at 2 or 5 second intervals.

The watch can be charged under natural sunlight or under a bright light source. Ensure that the light source doesn’t get too hot, an LED light is ideal for this. It will take the watch around 30 hours to fully charge in sunlight and 3-4 days to become fully charged in artificial light.
