TO SET THE WATCH: Do NOT remove rear button covers.  Gently use a pen or stylus tip to select mode with top button, and use bottom button to increase hours, minutes, etc. Do NOT use a sharp object (i.e. needle), doing so may puncture a hole in the silicone and cause water to seep inside the watch. When you adjust the month, date, or time, simply keep pressing the TOP button "A" until the desired figure appears and press the BOTTOM button "M" to adjust.  You may also press "M" (bottom button) to view the date.
