RADIO CONTROLLED
RADIO-CONTROLLED WATCH
MODE OF OPERATION
Once a day, your radio-controlled watch automatically receives the time signal of the region in which you purchased the watch via a built-in
receiver. In Great Britain, for example, this is the signal emitted by the long wave transmitter MSF in Anthorn. The transmitter has a range of around
1,000 km. After receiving the signal, the time is automatically transferred to the quartz movement and displayed by your watch.
CHECKING THE RADIO RECEPTION
To check whether the radio signal has been received by your watch, press button
1
once. The second hand now jumps to either the 6 o’clock or the
12 o’clock position. If the hand jumps to the 12 o’clock position, your watch has successfully received the radio signal. However, if the hand jumps
to the 6 o’clock position, your watch was unable to receive the last radio signal and continued to run in quartz mode. Your radio-controlled watch
will now try to receive the radio signal again overnight.
TIME ZONE SETTING / MANUAL SETTING OF THE TIME
If you are in a different time zone to the Central European Time zone (CET), you can set the watch to the current time zone. Hold down the button
1
. The second hand now starts moving, stops briefly at the 6 o’clock or 12 o’clock position and then continues rotating until it is parallel to the
hour hand and stops.
Now release button
1
. Press once to move the second hand by one hour mark. Press repeatedly until the second hand shows the desired time
difference.
Wait about 15 seconds until the hour and minute hands are set in motion and quickly adjust to the newly selected time zone. Do not forget to perform
the same steps again when you return.
CORRECTION OF THE HAND POSITIONS / MANUAL TRANSMITTER CALL
Your radio controlled watch was able to receive the radio signal, but shows the wrong time.
That means the position of the hands needs to be corrected.
Press and hold button
1
down until all three hands are set in motion.
Release the button and wait until the hands stop.
If all hands stop exactly at the 12 o’clock position, the automatic adjustment is completed.
If one or more hands stop in any other position, you need to start the manual setting of the hands within 30 seconds:
Put all the hands into the 12 o’clock position with the aid of button
1
.
• A brief press effects a single step.
• Holding the button down makes the hand move quickly.
• Press again to stop the fast mode.
Stop the hands at one minute to 12 and move forward in single steps until you have reached the exact 12 o’clock position.
If you go past the 12 o’clock position, the process needs to be repeated.
After correcting the positions of the hands, put the watch somewhere with good radio reception, for example, near a window.
Within 15 minutes, your watch should have received the radio signal, and carried out all the other time settings automatically.
(Note: the correction of hand positions also needs to be carried out after replacing the battery)
