problems.
E-18
Radio Controlled Atomic Timekeeping
This watch receives a time calibration signal and updates its time setting accordingly.
However, when using the watch outside of areas covered by time calibration signals,
you will have to adjust the settings manually as required. See Conguring Current
Time and Day Settings Manually (page E-39) for more information.
This section explains how the watch updates its time settings when the city code
selected as the Home City is in Japan, North America, Europe, or China, and is one
that supports time calibration signal reception.
E-17
Power Saving
Power Saving enters a sleep state (second hand sleep or function sleep) whenever
the watch is left for a certain period in an area where it is dark.

Supply section of the Specications (page E-84).
E-15
When power drops to Level 3, all settings (including timekeeping) will be cleared.
Recharging the battery will reset all settings to their initial factory defaults.
When the watch is at Level 3, exposing it to light for a while will cause the x Second
Hand to move to the position of second 57. This indicates that charging has started.
Power Recovery Mode
The watch is designed to go into a power recovery mode that stops hand operation
temporarily whenever power suddenly drops below a certain level due to continuous
signal reception or other operations over a short period. Note that all operations are
disabled while the watch is in the power recovery mode.
The hands will move to the correct positions and the watch will resume normal
operation after power recovers (in about 15 minutes). Putting the watch in a location
where it is exposed to light will help power to recover sooner.
E-14
Low Power
Low power conditions are indicated by the movement of
the x Second Hand in the Timekeeping Mode.
If the x Second Hand is moving normally at one-second
intervals, power is at Level 1.
If the x Second Hand is moving at two-second intervals,
power is at Level 2, which is quite low. Expose the watch
to light as soon as possible so it can charge.

Warning!
Leaving the watch in bright light for charging can cause it to become quite hot.
Take care when handling the watch to avoid burn injury. The watch can become
particularly hot when exposed to the following conditions for long periods.
On the dashboard of a car parked in direct sunlight
Too close to an incandescent lamp
Under direct sunlight
Important!
Keep the watch in an area normally exposed to bright light when storing it for long
periods. This helps to ensure that power does not run down.
Storing the watch for long periods in an area where there is no light or wearing it in
such a way that it is blocked from exposure to light can cause power to run down.
Make sure that the watch is exposed to bright light whenever possible.
Checking the Current Power Level
Certain functions will be disabled when the power level is low. If the power level is
low, leave the watch in a location where its face (solar panel) is exposed to light.
E-12
Charging the Watch
The face of the watch is a solar panel that generates power from light. The generated
power charges a built-in rechargeable battery, which powers watch operations. The
watch charges whenever it is exposed to light.
Charging Guide
Whenever you are not
wearing the watch, be sure
to leave it in a location
where it is exposed to light.
Best charging
performance is achieved
by exposing the watch to
light that is as strong as
possible.
When wearing the watch,
makes sure that its face is
not blocked from light by
the sleeve of your clothing.
The watch may enter a
sleep state (page E-17)
if its face is blocked by
your sleeve even only
partially.

Radio-controlled Atomic Timekeeping Precautions
Strong electrostatic charge can result in the wrong time setting.
Even if a receive operation is successful, certain conditions can cause the time
setting to be off by up to one second.
The watch is designed to update its day setting automatically for the period from
January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2099. Updating of the day setting by signal
reception will no longer be performed starting from January 1, 2100.
If you are in an area where signal reception is not possible, the watch keeps time
with the precision noted in Specications (page E-82).
The receive operation is disabled under any of the following conditions.
While power is at Level 2 or lower (page E-14)
While the watch is in the power recovery mode (page E-15)
While the watch is in the function sleep state (power saving, page E-17)
While the watch is in the World Time Mode (page E-53)

E-37
E-77
The x Second Hand indicates N (NO) when I check the result of the latest
receive operation.
Possible Cause Remedy Page
You are wearing or moving the watch,
or performing a button operation
during time calibration signal receive
operation.
The watch is in an area with poor
reception conditions.
Keep the watch in an area where
reception conditions are good while time
calibration signal receive operation is
being performed.
E-23
You are in an area where signal reception
is not possible for some reason.
See Approximate Reception Ranges. E-20
The alarm time was reached during time
calibration signal reception.
The alarm sounded during time
calibration signal reception, causing
reception to be canceled.

The calibration signal is not being

transmitted for some reason.
Check the website of the organization
that maintains the time calibration
signal in your area for information about
its down times.
Try again later.

E-76
Charging
The watch does not resume operation after I expose it to light.
This can happen after the power level drops to Level 3 (page E-14). Continue
exposing the watch to light until the x Second Hand starts moving normally (at one-
second intervals).
The x Second Hand starts to move at one-second intervals, but then suddenly
returns to moving at two-second intervals.
The watch probably is not sufciently charged yet. Continue keeping it exposed to
light.
Time Calibration Signal
The information in this section applies only when LONDON (LON), PARIS (PAR),
ATHENS (ATH), HONOLULU (HNL), ANCHORAGE (ANC), LOS ANGELES (LAX),
DENVER (DEN), CHICAGO (CHI), NEW YORK (NYC), HONG KONG (HKG), or
TOKYO (TYO) is selected as the Home City. You need to adjust the current time
manually when any other city is selected as the Home City.
E-75
Sensor
Temperature measurement error occurs.
This indicates that there is a problem with the sensor or the
watchs internal circuitry, making sensor measurement and
value correction impossible.
If the error message appears during a measurement,
restart the measurement. If the error message appears
when you restart the measurement, it probably means
that there is a problem with the sensor or internal
circuitry.
E-74
The period when summer time is applied in the location where you are using the
watch may be different from the period set for your currently selected Home City.
Use the procedure under To switch between standard time and summer time
manually (page E-37) to switch from AT (AUTO) to STD (for standard time) or DST
(for summer time).
The time and date settings are off.
This could indicate that the watch has been exposed to magnetism or strong impact,
which has caused problems with proper hand and day indicator alignment. Adjust the
watchs hand and day indicator home position alignment (page E-68).
E-73
The time setting is being adjusted following a successful auto time calibration
signal receive operation (page E-18).
Hands suddenly stop moving. Button operation also is disabled.
The watch may be in the power recovery mode (page E-15). Do not perform any
operation until the hands return to their normal positions (in about 15 minutes). The
hands should return to their correct positions when normal operation returns. To help
power recover, leave the watch in a location where it is exposed to light.
The current time setting is off by hours.
Your Home City setting may be wrong. Check your Home City setting and correct it,
if necessary (page E-34).
The current time setting is off by one hour.
If you are using the watch in an area where time calibration signal reception is
possible, see To congure Home City settings (page E-34).
E-72
Troubleshooting
Hand Movement and Position
I lost track of what mode the watch is in.
Refer to Mode Reference Guide (page E-30). To return directly to the Timekeeping
Mode, hold down C at least two seconds.
The x Second Hand is moving at two-second intervals.
All the watchs hands are stopped at 12 oclock and none of the buttons work
(x Second Hand stopped at 57, 58, 59, or 00).
Power may be low. Expose the watch to light until the x Second Hand starts moving
normally, at one-second intervals (page E-14).
The hands of the watch suddenly start moving at high speed, even when I do
not perform any operation.
This could be due to any one of the following causes. In all cases, the hand movement
does not indicate malfunction, and should stop shortly.
The watch is recovering from a sleep state (page E-17).
E-71
Press 3. C.
This enters the n Day Indicator home position
adjustment mode.
Check the 4. n Day Indicator to conrm that it is 1, which
is its home position.
If the 1 is not in the center of the n Day Indicator,
rotate the crown to center it.
Rotating the crown three full consecutive turns
clockwise will cause the n Day Indicator to start
changing in a forward direction (increment).
To stop n Day Indicator movement, press any button.
Push the crown back in to return to the Timekeeping Mode. 5.
This will cause the hands to return to their normal positions and resume regular
timekeeping. Wait until everything stops moving before performing any other
operation.

E-70
To adjust home positions
Pull out the crown. 1.
Hold down 2. B for at least ve seconds until the watch
beeps and the x Second Hand moves to 12 oclock.
Automatic home position adjustment of all of the
hands (but not the n Day Indicator) will start.
If all hands are at 12 oclock (the proper home hand
home position), advance directly to step 3.
If the v Upper Dial Hand is not pointing at 24, which
is its home position, hold down A for about two
seconds to move it there.
