<Time Necessary for Reception>
Reception can take from between about 2 minutes to a maximum of 15 minutes, depending on factors
such as the weather or noise. If the signal reception fails, the watch may return immediately to the
normal indication.
NOTE:
If the signal is blocked while it is being received due to changes in the environment or other factors,
the second hand may rotate once and show the reception level again. Do not move the watch until the
second hand has returned to moving at 1-second intervals.
* H, M and L only indicate the reception level, and do not affect the
performance.
<The time display may shift slightly depending on the reception environment and internal watch
processing even if radio waves are properly received.>
