5. Do not move the watch during reception.
6. When the signal has been properly received, the second hand will automatically
move from H, M or L to the time that was received, all the hands will be adjusted,
and the second hand will return to 1-second interval movement.
• The reception level may be affected by the surroundings in which the watch is being
used. While referring to reception levels H, M and L, keep changing the watch
direction or location and try to receive the signals.
Automatic Reception Recovery
i
After the watch has stopped due to an insufficient charging, charge the watch in
sunlight sufficiently. When the watch is recharged sufficiently, it will automatically
receive the radio signal once.
Regularly charge your watch so that it does not become
insufficiently charged.
To confirm, refer to “Confirming Reception Status” on page 155.
• When the watch is receiving the radio wave signal, all of the hands
will stop. To check the time, hold button (A) for 2 seconds to cancel
radio wave reception. The hands will then return to the current time.
6. Poor Reception Areas
It may be difficult to properly receive the radio signals under certain environmental
conditions or in areas susceptible to radio noise.
