When you change the Home City code and/or DST setting
•
If the analog time does not match the digital time for any reason, use the procedure
described under “To adjust the analog time” to match the analog setting to the digital
setting.
•
Whenever you need to adjust both the digital and the analog time settings manually,

On/Off status
•
The second hand will advance at high speed to the correct position in accordance
with the digital time seconds count, and resume normal movement from there.
•
The Power Saving indicator (
PS
) is on the display in all modes while the Power
Saving is turned on.
Auto Return Features
•
If you leave the watch in the Alarm or Hand Setting Mode, or with the Battery Level
Indicator (
HI
or
MID
) displayed for two or three minutes without performing any
operation, it automatically returns to the Timekeeping Mode.
•
If you leave the watch with a flashing setting on the display for two or three minutes
without performing any operation, the watch automatically exits the setting screen.
Scrolling
The
B
and
D
buttons are used in various modes and setting screens to scroll
through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a scroll
operation scrolls through the data at high speed.
Initial Screens
When you enter the World Time or Alarm Mode, the data you were viewing when you
last exited the mode appears first.
Radio-controlled Atomic Timekeeping Precautions
•
Strong electrostatic charge can result in the wrong time being set.
•
Even when the watch is within the reception range of the transmitter, signal
reception will be impossible if the signal is blocked by mountains or other geological
formations between the watch and signal source.
•
Signal reception is affected by weather, atmospheric conditions, and seasonal
changes.
•
The time calibration signal bounces off the ionosphere. Because of this, such factors
as changes in the reflectivity of the ionosphere, as well as movement of the
ionosphere to higher altitudes due to seasonal atmospheric changes or the time of
day may change the reception range of the signal and make reception temporarily
impossible.
•
Even if the time calibration signal is received properly, certain conditions can cause
the time setting to be off by up to one second.
•
The current time setting in accordance with the time calibration signal takes priority
over any time settings you make manually.
•
The watch is designed to automatically update the date and day of the week for the
period January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2099. Setting of the date by the time
calibration signal cannot be performed starting from January 1, 2100.
•
This watch can receive signals that differentiate between leap years and non-leap
years.
•
Though this watch is designed to receive both time data (hour, minutes, seconds)
and date data (year, month, day), certain signal conditions can limit reception to time
data only.
•
Normally, the signal reception date shown by the last signal screen is the date data
included in the received time calibration signal. When only time data is received,
however, the last signal screen shows the date as kept in the Timekeeping Mode at
the time of signal reception.
•
If you are in an area where proper time calibration signal reception is impossible, the
watch keeps time within
±
15 seconds a month at normal temperature.
•
If you have problems with proper time calibration signal reception or if the time
setting is wrong after signal reception, check your current city code, DST (summer
time), and auto receive settings. The following are the initial factory defaults for these
settings.
Japan Signal Frequencies
When you have
TYO
(Tokyo) selected as the Home City code, you can use the
following procedure to specify either 40kHz or 60kHz as the reception frequency. The
frequency you should use depends on your current location in Japan. See the map
under “Time Calibration Signal Reception” for more information.

To select a frequency for use in Japan
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down
A
until the
transmitter indicator starts to flash, which indicates the
setting screen.
•
The second hand will move at high speed to the 12
o’clock position, where it will stop.
2. Use
D
to select the transmitter you want to use.
•
Each press of
D
cycles through the available
frequencies as described below.
AT
: The watch automatically selects the
frequency that has the strongest signal.
: Receives the signal from Fukushima
(40kHz).
: Receives the signal from Fukuoka/Saga
(60kHz).
3. Press
A
twice to exit the setting screen.
•
Reception can take up to 14 minutes when the
AT
option is selected.
•
The second hand will advance at high speed to the
