The current time setting changes after I set it manually.

You may have the watch confi gured for Auto Receive of the time calibration signal 
(page E-31), 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 (page E-39).

 

The current time setting is off by one hour.

Signal reception on a day for 
switching between 

STD

 (standard 

time)/

DST

 (daylight saving 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.

 You are wearing or moving the 

 

x

watch, or performing a button 
operation during the signal receive 
operation.

 The watch is in an area with poor 

 

x

reception conditions.

Keep the watch in an area where reception 
conditions are good while the signal receive 
operation is being performed.

E-30

You are in an area where signal 
reception is not possible for some 
reason.

See “Approximate Reception Ranges”.

E-27

The calibration signal is not being 
transmitted for some reason.

Check the website of the organization

E-55

 

The current time setting is off by one hour.

The standard time/daylight saving time setting is wrong. See “Standard Time and 
Daylight Saving Time Settings” (page E-43).

 Second hand position and Home City indication are not correct.

This could indicate that the watch has been exposed to magnetism or strong impact, 
which has caused problems with proper hand alignment. Adjust the watch’s hand 
home position alignment (page E-49).

Charging

 

The watch does not resume operation after I expose it to light.

This can happen after the battery charge level drops to Level 4 (page E-18). Continue 
exposing the watch to light until the 

x

 

Second Hand

 starts moving normally (at one-

second intervals).

E-54

 The watch is recovering from a sleep state (page E-24).

 

x

 The time setting is being adjusted following a successful auto time calibration 

 

x

signal receive operation (page E-25).

 Nothing happens when I rotate the crown.

 Leaving the crown pulled out for more than two minutes without performing any 
operation will automatically cause the setting operation to become disabled. If this 
happens, press the crown back in and then pull it out again to confi gure settings. See 
“Crown Operations” (page E-6).

Hand movement is stopped.

 The watch may have been exposed to magnetism, which will cause the hands to 
stop at their current positions. Pull the crown out to the fi rst click or press a button 
to restart hand movement. If the indicated time is not correct, perform home position 
adjustment. See “Adjusting Home Positions Manually” (page E-49).

 

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 (page E-39).

Troubleshooting

Hand Movement and Position

 

The 

x

 

Second Hand

 is moving in the pattern: 

1 second 

 1 second 

 2 seconds.

 The battery charge is starting to go low. Expose the watch to light to charge it. See 
“Charging the Watch” (page E-16).

 

The 

x

 

Second Hand

 is moving at two-second intervals.

 

All of the watch’s hands are stopped at 12 o’clock, and the 

A

 button and 

crown do not do anything.

The battery charge may be low. Expose the watch to light until the 

x

 

Second Hand

 

starts moving normally, at one-second intervals (page E-18).

 

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.
