Press and hold the "set" button, “A,” to set the time and date on your watch. This will cause the numbers on the face of the watch to flash. Press the “C” button to zero the number of seconds. Press “B” to advance the settings to hours and minutes. Press “C” to advance the hours and minutes to get the reading on the clock to match the actual time.
Press “B” two times, followed by “A” to set the alarm. This will cause the alarm time to flash, starting with the hours. Press “C” to advance the hours. Press “B” again and then “C” to advance the minutes setting.
