Be
sure
to
perform
the
following
procedures
before
using
the
Organizer
for the
first
time:
1. Open your Organizer in the following manner:
Lift top
Caution: Do not use force when opening the upper cover.
2. Initialize the Organizer.
While
holding
,
press
the
RESET
switch
on
the
back.
Release
the
RESET
switch
and
then
release
_
The
following
display
will
appear:
CLEAR ALL DATA
OK (Y/N) ?
Note: Under certain conditions the message may appear as “Data has
been
impaired!
Press
[Y]
to
CLEAR
ALL
memory”.
Proceed
to
the next step in either case.

The Organizer is initialized and then the TEL 1 directory is displayed.
Backlight
The Organizer provides a built-in Backlight, which allows you to view the
display and use the Organizer even in dark conditions, eg. in a theater,
restaurant, or business presentation. Pressing once
illuminates
the
display
for
around
fifteen
seconds.
When
already
on,
press
BACKLIGHT | again to turn it off.
If you press BACKLIGHT], the Backlight will remain on for as
long as you continue to use the Organizer, until you have not typed any
key for fifteen seconds. This is useful if you want to enter or access some
information that will take longer than fifteen seconds.
The Backlight may remain on for less than fifteen seconds if the battery
level is very low, or during data transfer.
The Backlight will be turned on briefly whenever the Organizer is switched
on, but this does not affect the Organizer’s operation and is completely
normal.
Notes: Do not use the Backlight unnecessarily.
e Since the Backlight drains power from the operating batteries,
excessive
use
of
the
Backlight
will
significantly
reduce
your
battery life.
e Continuous use of the Backlight will, over time, lead to gradual
loss of brightness.
If the Backlight is on for 10 minutes per day (eg. 15 seconds
40
times
a
day),
the
brightness
will
be
reduced
by
half
after
10* years (at an ambient temperature of 23°C and 65%
humidity).
* This figure may vary depending on the surrounding environ-
ment.

The Organizer has two built-in clocks: a HOME clock to display the local
time of day, and a WORLD clock to display the time in any of 27 major
cities in the world.
HOME time clock
This is your “daily clock” based on the time in your local area. The default
HOME city setting (the initial setting during first-time use or after the reset
operation) is New York.
Displaying the HOME time
Press |CLOCK]. The HOME time screen is displayed.
NEW YORK
MON JAN 1,1996
12:00 ano
Setting and changing the HOME city
Set your local city as the HOME city by selecting its zone number.
Zone numbers are based on the distance of the zones from the interna-
tional date line (zone number zero). For example, there is a 13-hour
difference between the date line and London (London is 13 hours behind),
so the zone number for London is 13. Honolulu is 23 hours behind the
date line, so its zone number is 23.
The names and zone numbers of the following 27 cities are stored in the
Organizer’s memory:
