USER’S GUIDE 2367/2739
•This watch is designed to receive the signal transmitted from Mainflingen. This means that reception is best when the antenna built into the 12 o’clock edge of the watch is facing towards Mainflingen. Note, however, that moving the watch while the time calibration signal receive operation is taking place will make stable reception impossible.
•Think of the watch as acting like a TV or radio when it is receiving the calibration signal. When receiving indoors, move to a location as near as possible to a window. Proper signal reception can be difficult or even impossible under the conditions listed below.
Near TVs, refrigerators, computers, or other household appliances
Far away from broadcasting stations among
Underground, in tunnels or in
Near
In trains or cars
•Radio interference can make signal reception impossible.
•Signal reception is normally better at night than during the day.
•Strong electrostatic charge can result in the wrong time being set.
•The daily alarm and hourly time signal do not operate during signal reception.
•If you are in an area where proper time calibration signal reception is impossible, the watch keeps time within ± 15 seconds a month at normal temperature.

•The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
•Frequent use of the backlight runs down the battery.
