Troubleshooting
Hand Movement and Position
■
■
The
x
Second Hand
is moving at two second intervals.
■
■
All the watch’s hands are stopped at 12 o’clock and none of the buttons work.
Power may be low. Expose the watch to light until the
x
Second Hand
starts moving
normally, at one-second intervals.
■
■
The hands of the watch suddenly start moving at high speed, even when I do
not perform any operation.
This could be due to any one of the following causes. In all cases, the hand movement
does not indicate malfunction, and should stop shortly.
The watch is recovering from a sleep state.
•
The time setting is being adjusted following a successful auto time calibration
•
signal receive operation.
The current time setting is off by hours.
■
■
Your Home City setting may be wrong. Check your Home City setting and correct it,
if necessary.
■
■
The current time setting is off by one hour.
If you are using the watch in an area where time calibration signal reception is
possible, see “To configure Home City settings”.
If you are using the watch in an area where time calibration signal reception is not
possible, you may need to change your Home City’s
STD (standard time)/DST
(daylight saving/summer time) setting manually. Use the procedure under “To toggle
the Home City time between standard time and daylight saving time” to change the
STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer time) setting.
■
■
The hands and/or day indications are off.
This could indicate that the watch has been exposed to magnetism or strong impact,
which has caused problems with proper hand and day alignment. Adjust the watch’s
hand and day home position alignment.
World Time
■
■
The World Time indicated by the
n
World Time Hour Hand
and
m
World Time
Minute Hand
is one hour off from the actual time in the selected time zone.
The
STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer time) setting of the selected
World Time City may be wrong. Select the correct
STD (standard time)/DST (daylight
saving/summer time) setting.
■
■
The World Time indicated by the
n
World Time Hour Hand
and
m
World Time
Minute Hand
is off.
Your Home City settings may be wrong. Check your Home City settings and correct
them, if necessary.
Charging
■
■
The watch does not resume operation after I expose it to light.
This can happen after the power level drops to Level 3. Continue exposing the watch
to light until the
x
Second Hand
starts moving normally (at one-second intervals).
■
■
The
x
Second Hand
starts to move at one-second intervals, but then suddenly
returns to moving at two-second intervals.
The watch probably is not sufficiently charged yet. Continue keeping it exposed to
light.

Time Calibration Signal
The information in this section applies only when
LON, PAR, ATH, HNL, ANC, LAX,
DEN, CHI, NYC, HKG, or TYO is selected at the Home City. You need to adjust the
current time manually when any other city is selected as the Home City.
■
■
The
x
Second Hand
indicates NO (N) when I check the result of the latest
receive operation.
Possible Cause
Remedy
You are wearing or moving the watch, or
•
performing a button operation during the
signal receive operation.
The watch is in an area with poor reception
•
conditions.
Keep the watch in an area where reception
conditions are good while the signal receive
operation is performed.
You are in an area where signal reception is
not possible for some reason.
See “Approximate Reception Ranges”.
The calibration signal is not being transmitted
for some reason.
Check the website of the organization
•
that maintains the time calibration signal
in your area for information about its
down times.
Try again later.
•
■
■
The current time setting changes after I set it manually.
You may have the watch configured for Auto Receive of the time calibration signal,
which will cause the time to be adjusted automatically according to your currently
selected Home City. If this results in the wrong time setting, check your Home City
setting and correct it, if necessary.
■
■
The current time setting is off by one hour.
Possible Cause
Remedy
Signal reception on a day for switching
between
STD
(standard time)/
DST
(daylight
saving/summer time) may have failed for
some reason.
Perform the operation under “To get ready
for a receive operation”. The time setting
will be adjusted automatically as soon as
signal reception is successful.
If you are unable to receive the time
calibration signal, change the
STD
(standard time)/
DST
(daylight saving/
summer time) setting manually.
■
■
Auto Receive is not performed or I cannot perform Manual Receive.
Possible Cause
Remedy
Your Home City setting is wrong.
Check your Home City setting and correct
it, if necessary.
There is not enough power for signal
reception.
Expose the watch to light to charge it.
■
■
Signal reception is being performed successfully, but the time and/or day is
wrong.
Possible Cause
Remedy
Your Home City setting is wrong.
Check your Home City setting and correct
it, if necessary.
The watch may have been exposed to
magnetism or strong impact, which has
caused problems with proper hand and day
alignment.
Adjust the watch’s hand and day home
position alignment.
