Possible Cause
Remedy
Signal reception on a day for switching
between
STD

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

If you are unable to receive the time calibration
signal, change the
STD
