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.

x On the dashboard of a car parked in direct sunlight x Too close to an incandescent lamp

x Under direct sunlight

E-10	E-11

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.

x 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.

Low Power

Low Battery Alert (Hand Movement and Function Status)

Level	Hand Movement	Function Status
1	Normal.	All functions enabled

22 Second Hand moves at two-second intervals. Beeper and time calibration signal reception disabled.

3

2 Second Hand stopped.

All functions disabled

x 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.

x When the watch is at Level 3, exposing it to light for a while will cause the 2 Second Hand to move to the position of second 57. This indicates that charging has started.

Low power conditions are indicated by the movement of the 2 Second Hand in the Timekeeping Mode.

x If the 2 Second Hand is moving normally at one-second intervals, power is at Level 1.

						x If the 2 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.

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.

Moves at two-second intervals.

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 Day Settings Manually” (page E-30) 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:	The watch can receive the signal from the transmitter
		located here:
	LON (LONDON), PAR (PARIS), ATH (ATHENS)	Anthorn (England), Mainflingen (Germany)
	HKG (HONG KONG)	Shangqiu City (China)
	TYO (TOKYO)	Fukushima (Japan), Fukuoka/Saga (Japan)
	HNL (HONOLULU), ANC (ANCHORAGE),
	LAX (LOS ANGELES), DEN (DENVER),	Fort Collins, Colorado (United States)
	CHI (CHICAGO), NYC (NEW YORK)

Important!

x The areas covered by HNL (HONOLULU) and ANC (ANCHORAGE) are quite far from the calibration signal transmitters, so certain conditions may cause reception problems.
