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)
and Japan.
See the information under Signal Reception Troubleshooting 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.
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 Timekeeping 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.
Using this watch in a country covered by a time calibration that is different
from the countries it supports may result in incorrect time indication due to
local application of summer time, etc.
To specify your Home City
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down E until
the city code starts to flash, which indicates
the setting screen.
2. Press A (east) and C (west) to select the
city code you want to use as your Home City.

Note that this watch does not have a city code that corresponds to
Newfoundland.
3. Press E to exit the setting screen.
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 or you can set the time manually.
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 Time Calibration Signal Reception and Transmitters.
See the maps under Approximate Reception Ranges for information about
the reception ranges of the watch.
Under factory default settings, auto receive is turned off for all of the
following city codes: HKG (Hong Kong), HNL (Honolulu), and ANC
(Anchorage). For details about turning on auto receive for these city codes,
see To turn auto receive on and off.
You can disable time signal reception, if you want. See To turn auto receive
on and off for more information.
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. When any auto receive is successful, the remaining
auto receive operations are not performed. For more information, see About
Auto Receive.
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.
Proper signal reception can be difficult or even impossible under the
conditions listed below.
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.

Approximate Reception Ranges
U.K. and German Signals U.S. Signal
Japan Signals
Signal reception may not be possible at the distances noted below during
certain times of the year or day. Radio interference also may cause
problems with reception.
Mainflingen (Germany) or Anthorn (England) transmitters: 500
kilometers (310 miles)
Fort Collins (United States) transmitter: 600 miles (1,000 kilometers)
Fukushima or Fukuoka/Saga (Japan) transmitters: 500 kilometers (310
miles)
Even when the watch is within the reception range of the transmitter, signal
reception will be impossible if the signal is blocked by mountains or other
geological formations between the watch and signal source.
Signal reception is affected by weather, atmospheric conditions, and
seasonal changes.
Important!
When getting ready to receive the time calibration signal, position the watch
as shown in the nearby illustration, with its 12 oclock side facing 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.
12 o’clock
or
Make sure the watch is facing the right way.
