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
x
performance is achieved by exposing the watch to light that is as strong as possible.
When wearing the watch, make sure that its face is not blocked from light by the sleeve of your clothing.
The watch may enter a
x
sleep state (page E-15) if its face is blocked by your sleeve even only partially.

Important!
x
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 x 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.

Moves at two-second intervals.
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 overuse of the alarm tone 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.
Power Saving
Power Saving enters a sleep state automatically whenever the watch is left for a certain period in an area where it is dark. The table below shows how watch functions are affected by Power Saving.
There actually are two sleep state levels: “second hand sleep” and “function sleep”.

Important!
x HNL and ANC are quite far from the calibration signal
The areas covered by transmitters, so certain conditions may cause reception problems. When
x HNL or HKG is selected as the Home City, only the time and date are
adjusted according to the time calibration signal. You need to switch manually between standard time and daylight saving time (DST) if required. See “To toggle the Home City time between standard time and daylight saving time” (page E-36) for information about how to do this.
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 “Confi guring Current Time and Date Settings Manually” (page E-38) 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.
If your Home City Code setting is this:
LON, PAR, ATH Anthorn (England), Mainfl ingen (Germany)

x
With Auto Receive, the watch performs the receive operation each day automatically up to six times (up to fi ve times for the Chinese calibration signal) between the hours of midnight and 5 a.m. (according to the Timekeeping Mode time). When any receive operation is successful, none of the other receive operations for that day are performed. When a calibration time is reached, the watch will perform the receive operation
x
only if it is in the Timekeeping Mode or World Time Mode. The receive operation is not performed if a calibration time is reached while you are confi guring settings.
E-24
Signal reception normally is better x at night.
x
The receive operation 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 operation or move the watch during this time.

Checking the Current Time in a Different Time Zone
You can use the World Time Mode to view the current time in one of 29 time zones around the globe. Each time zone has a “city code”, which is a three-letter abbreviation of a representative city in the zone. The representative city of the time zone that is currently selected in the World Time Mode is called the “World Time City”.

Adjusting Home Positions Manually
Strong magnetism or impact can cause the hands and/or day of the watch to be off, even if the watch is able to perform the signal receive operation. If this happens, perform the applicable home position adjustment procedures in this section.
Hand home position adjustment is not required if the time and day settings are
x
correct. You also can use auto correction of the hand home positions (page E-59) to correct x the home positions of the z Hour Hand, c Minute Hand, and x Second Hand.
Note
Any time after you enter the home position adjustment mode in step 1 of the following procedure, you can return to the Timekeeping Mode by pressing A. The watch also will return to the Timekeeping Mode automatically if you do not perform any operation for about two or three minutes in the home position adjustment mode. In either case, any adjustments you made before the watch returned to the Timekeeping Mode will be applied.

Troubleshooting
Hand Movement and Position
I lost track of what mode the watch is in.
Refer to “To select a mode” (page E-31). To return directly to the Timekeeping Mode from any other mode, hold down C at least two seconds.
The
Second Hand is moving at two-second intervals.
All the watch’s hands are stopped at 12 o’clock and none of the buttons work.
Power may be low. Expose the watch to light until the normally, at one-second intervals (page E-11).
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-15).
x
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 confi gure Home City settings” (page E-33). If you are using the watch in an area where time calibration signal reception is not possible, you may need to change your Home City’s STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer time) setting manually. Use the procedure under “To toggle the Home City time between standard time and daylight saving time” (page E-36) to change the STD/DST setting.
The hands and/or day indicator is off.
This could indicate that the watch has been exposed to magnetism or strong impact, which has caused problems with proper hand and day alignment. Adjust the watch’s hand and day home position alignment (page E-62).

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-11). Continue exposing the watch to light until the x Second Hand starts moving normally (at one­second intervals).
The
Second Hand starts to move at one-second intervals, but then suddenly
returns to moving at two-second intervals.
The watch probably is not suffi ciently charged yet. Continue keeping it exposed to light.
Time Calibration Signal
The information in this section applies only when LON, PAR, ATH, HNL, ANC, LAX, DEN, CHI, NYC, HKG, or 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-71
The current time setting changes after I set it manually.
You may have the watch confi gured for Auto Receive of the time calibration signal (page E-24), which will cause the time to be adjusted automatically according to your currently selected Home City. If this results in the wrong time setting, check your Home City setting and correct it, if necessary (page E-33).
The current time setting is off by one hour.
Possible Cause Remedy Page
Signal reception on a day for switching between STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/ summer time) may have failed for some reason.
Signal reception is being performed successfully, but the time and/or day is wrong.
Possible Cause Remedy Page
Your Home City setting is wrong.
The watch may have been exposed to magnetism or strong impact, which has caused problems with proper hand and day alignment.
Perform the operation under “To get ready for a receive operation”. The time setting will be adjusted automatically as soon as signal reception is successful.
If you are unable to receive the time calibration signal, change the STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer time) setting manually.
Check your Home City setting and correct it, if necessary.
Adjust the watch’s hand and day home positions.
