Corrective Actions
Watch does not begin
reception
· Does the shorter end of the
second hand move to “RX:
Reception standby”?
Continuously depress button (A) and
release when the shorter end of the
second hand points to the RX position.
Unable to receive
radio waves (even
within a receivable
area)
· Are there objects that block
radio waves or generate noise
nearby?
· Are radio waves attempted to
be received away from a win-
dow?
· Try receiving radio waves while
facing the 9:00 position of the
watch towards a window while
avoiding objects that block radio
waves or generate noise.
Try changing the direction, location
and angle of the watch several times
so that the shorter end of the second
hand points to a reception level to
find the location at which radio waves
are received easily. (Refer to the sec-
tions entitled, “ 2.A.For Good Recep-
tion” and “Locations where Recep-
tion may be Difficult” of this manual.
Unable to receive
radio waves even
though the shorter end
of the second hand
points to RX
· Does the shorter end of the
second hand still indicate a
reception level of H, M or L
during reception?
· Wait until reception is completed
(until the second returns to one-sec-
ond interval movement)
Time does not match
time service even
though radio wave can
be received
· Has the reference position
been set correctly?
· Has a time difference been
set?
· Check the reference position. If the
reference position is not correct,
refer to the section entitled, “10.
Setting the Reference Position” of
this manual and reset the reference
position.
· Check whether or not a time differ-
ence has been set. Correctly reset
the time difference if only the hour
hand has shifted in one hour units.
