3. Setup Inizjali
3.1 Issettjar tal-Ħin
- Iġbed il-kuruna 'l barra għall-pożizzjoni 2 (l-aktar 'il bogħod). Il-lanza tas-sekondi tieqaf.
- Rotate the crown to move the hour and minute hands clockwise until the desired time is set. Ensure AM/PM is correctly set if your watch has a 24-hour indicator.
- Push the crown back in to position 0 (normal position) to start the watch.
3.2 Issettjar tad-Data
- Iġbed il-kuruna 'l barra għall-pożizzjoni 1 (l-ewwel klikk).
- Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise (depending on the movement) until the correct date appears in the date window.
- Imbotta l-kuruna lura fil-pożizzjoni 0.
Note: Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the automatic date change mechanism. If you need to set the date during this period, first set the time outside this range, adjust the date, then reset the time.
3.3 Chronograph Hand Reset
If the chronograph hands (sub-dials) are not aligned to the zero position when reset, they may need calibration:
- Iġbed il-kuruna 'l barra għall-pożizzjoni 2.
- Press pusher A (top pusher) repeatedly to advance the chronograph second hand to the 12 o'clock (zero) position.
- Press pusher B (bottom pusher) repeatedly to advance the chronograph minute hand to the 12 o'clock (zero) position.
- Once all chronograph hands are aligned, push the crown back in to position 0.
4. Kif Tħaddem l-Arloġġ Tiegħek
4.1 L-Użu tal-Kronografu
The chronograph function allows you to measure elapsed time up to a certain duration (e.g., 30 or 60 minutes, depending on the movement).
- Ibda: Agħfas il-buttuna A biex tibda l-kronografu. Il-lanza tas-sekondi tal-kronografu tibda tiċċaqlaq.
- Waqqaf: Press pusher A again to stop the chronograph. Read the elapsed time from the chronograph second and minute sub-dials.
- Irrisettja: Wara li twaqqaf, agħfas il-buttuna B biex tirrisettja l-lanċetti kollha tal-kronografu għall-pożizzjonijiet żero tagħhom.
- Ħin Maqsum (jekk applikabbli): Some chronographs allow for split-time measurement. Consult the specific movement instructions if this feature is present.
4.2 Using the Tachymeter
The tachymeter scale on the bezel is used to measure speed over a known distance (e.g., 1 kilometer or 1 mile).
- Start the chronograph (Pusher A) at the beginning of the measured distance (e.g., a mile marker).
- Stop the chronograph (Pusher A) when you reach the end of the measured distance.
- The number indicated by the chronograph second hand on the tachymeter scale represents the average speed per hour for that distance. For example, if the second hand points to '60' after 1 minute, your average speed was 60 units per hour (e.g., 60 mph or 60 km/h).
