■ How to manually set the date
When the date is not changed automatically due to an environment in which a radio signal cannot be received outside
the radio signal reception range, etc. (when changing from a month with 30 days or less to a month with 31 days), set
the date manually.
•
The date can be set independently regardless of the time.
•
When the watch is used in an environment in which a radio signal can be received again, receive a radio signal to
set the time. “Automatic reception and manual reception”

* When the watch receives radio signals after the date is manually adjusted, it displays the date received from radio signals.
* If the date remains incorrect even after a successful radio signal reception, the preliminary position of the date may be misaligned.

Preliminary position
When the watch is unable to display the precise time or date even if it successfully receives a radio signal, or when the
stopwatch hands do not stop at the 0-position even after resetting the stopwatch, the preliminary position may be misaligned.
The possible causes of misalignment of preliminary position are as follows:
In the case of having a strong impact : the misalignment may occur when dropping or hitting the watch.
In the case of a magnetic influence
: the misalignment may occur when bringing the watch close to an object which
generates magnetism.
“Examples of common magnetic products that may affect watches”

P.59
* The condition “the preliminary position of hand is misaligned” means that compared to a health meter, “the zero position of a meter
is misaligned, causing a correct weight not to be displayed.”
■
Automatic hand position adjustment function (Adjustment of
preliminary positions of hour, minute and seconds hands)
The hour, minute, and seconds hands have an “automatic hand position adjustment function,” which automatically
corrects an incorrect preliminary position. Automatic Hand Position Adjustment Function activates once a minute for
the small seconds hand and at 12:00 both for the AM and PM for the hour and minute hands.
* This function works when the preliminary hand position is misaligned due to external factors such as strong impact or magnetic influence.
It does not work to adjust accuracy of the watch or slight deviations which may occur during the manufacturing process.
* The preliminary position of the hour and minute hands can also be manually adjusted.

Setting the Preliminary Position of the Date/Stopwatch Hands
Since the preliminary position of the date and stopwatch hands is not automatically adjusted, it must be adjusted manually.

How to set the preliminary position
■ Set the preliminary position for the date, and the hour
and minute hands.
The preliminary position of the date is the “1st”.
The preliminary positions of the hour and minute hands are
“0:00 AM”.
When the preliminary positions are incorrect, the correct time and date cannot be displayed even if the
watch receives radio signals.
In such a case, by correcting the preliminary positions, the loss or gain of the time or date can be corrected.
When the numerical number of the date is not located at the center of the window, it can be corrected by
the same procedures as mentioned above.
To correct the preliminary positions, perform the following operation.
