Radio-controlled Atomic Timekeeping
This watch receives a time calibration signal and updates its time setting accordingly.
This watch is designed to pick up the time calibration signals transmitted in Germany (Mainflingen), England (Anthorn), the United States (Fort Collins), China (Shangqiu), and Japan (Fukushima, Fukuoka/Saga).
See the information under “Signal Reception Troubleshooting” (page E-27) if you experience problems with time calibration signal reception.
Current Time Setting
This watch adjusts its time setting automatically in accordance with a time calibration signal. You also can perform a manual procedure to set the time and date, when necessary.
The first thing you should do after purchasing this watch is to specify your Home City (the city where you normally will use the watch). For more information, see “To specify your Home City” on page E-12.
E-10
When using the watch outside the areas covered by the time signal transmitters, you will have to adjust the current time setting manually as required. See and date manually (page E-58) for more information about manual time settings.
The U.S. time calibration signal can be picked up by the watch while in North America. The term North America in this manual refers to the area that consists of Canada, the continental United States, and Mexico.
As of January 2008, China does not use Daylight Saving Time (DST). If China does go to the Daylight Saving Time system in the future, some functions of this watch may no longer operate correctly.

3. Press A twice to exit the setting mode.
Normally, your watch should show the correct time as soon as you select your Home City code. If it does not, it should adjust automatically after the next auto receive operation (in the middle of the night). You also can perform manual receive (page E-24) or you can set the time manually (page E-58).
The watch will receive the time calibration signal automatically from the applicable transmitter (in the middle of the night) and update its settings accordingly. For information about the relationship between city codes and transmitters, see page E-17 and “Transmitters (page E-74).
See the maps under “Approximate Reception Ranges (page E-18) for information about the reception ranges of the watch.
E-13
Time Calibration Signal Reception
There are two different methods you can use to receive the time calibration signal: auto receive and manual receive.
Auto Receive
With auto receive, the watch receives the time calibration signal automatically up to six times a day (five times for the China signal). When any auto receive is successful, remaining auto receive operations are not performed. For more information, see About Auto Receive (page E-21).
Manual Receive
Manual receive lets you start a time calibration receive operation with the press of a button. For more information, see To perform manual receive (page E-24).
E-14
Important!
When getting ready to receive the time calibration signal, position the watch as shown in the nearby illustration, with its 12 o’clock side pointing towards a window. This watch is designed to receive a time calibration signal late at night. Because of this, you should place the watch near a window as shown in the illustration when you take it off at night. Make sure there are no metal objects nearby.

or
Make sure the watch is facing the right way.
E-15
Proper signal reception can be difficult or even impossible under the conditions listed below.
Inside or among buildings
Signal reception normally is better at night than during the day.
Time calibration signal reception takes from two to seven minutes, but in some
cases it can take as long as 14 minutes. Take care that you do not perform any button operations or move the watch during this time.
E-16
Inside a vehicle
Near household appliances, office equipment, or a mobile phone
Near a construction site, airport, or other sources of electrical noise
Near high­tension power lines

Note
When a calibration time is reached, the watch will receive the calibration signal only if it is in either the Timekeeping Mode or World Time Mode. Reception is not performed if a calibration time is reached while you are configuring settings.
Auto receive of the calibration signal is designed to be performed early in the morning, while you sleep (provided that the Timekeeping Mode time is set correctly). Before going to bed for the night, remove the watch from your wrist, and put it in a location where it can receive the signal easily.
The watch receives the calibration signal for two to 14 minutes everyday when the time in the Timekeeping Mode reaches a calibration time. Do not perform any button operation within 14 minutes before or after the calibration times. Doing so can interfere with correct calibration.
Remember that reception of the calibration signal depends on the current time in your Home City, as kept in the Timekeeping Mode.
