Solution

Place the watch where it can receive radio signals more easily. Conduct manual reception if necessary.

For details, refer to “CONDITIONS IN WHICH THE WATCH MAY BE UNABLE TO RECEIVE RADIO SIGNALS” on page 31 and “MANUAL RECEPTION” on pages 26-27.

When the watch returns to normal temperature, the condition will be corrected. Conduct manual reception if necessary.

For details, refer to “MANUAL RECEPTION” on pages 26-27. If the watch hands are not set to current time even after conducting manual reception, consult the retailer from whom the watch was purchased.

Check the time zone that the watch is currently set for, and select the time zone where you want to set the watch.

For details, refer to “TIME ZONE ADJUSTMENT” on page 33.

No crown or button operation is needed. Automatic hand alignment will be activated to correct the hand positions.

For details, refer to “AUTOMATIC HAND ALIGNMENT” on page 19.

If the hand positions are not corrected automatically or if you want to adjust the hand positions immediately, reset the built-in IC. For details, refer to “ABNORMAL DISPLAY OR IMPROPER FUNCTION” on pages 56-57.

If the hand positions are not corrected even after resetting the built-in IC, consult the retailer from whom the watch was purchased.
