Calibration Signal Reception Precautions

•Auto reception can be performed while the watch is in the Timekeeping Mode or World Time Mode only.

•Pressing any button while auto reception is in progress will cause the watch to beep and then exit the receive operation.

•Make sure you are within the range of the calibration signal transmitter before performing the reception operation. Remember that geographic contours, nearby buildings, seasonal conditions, the time of day, can even make reception impossible even when you are within range of the transmitter.

•Proper reception may be impossible if there is something blocking the signal. If reception is unsuccessful, try again.

•This watch is designed to adjust its current time setting in accordance with the calibration signal transmitted in Japan and the United States only. Note that you will need to make your own adjustments when using this watch outside of Japan or the United States, or in any area that is outside the range of the receivable time calibration signal transmitters.

•When the watch is unable to adjust its time signal using the calibration signal for some reason, timekeeping accuracy is within

±15 seconds per month.

•Strong electrostatic charge can cause timekeeping error.

•Signal reception is cancelled if an alarm starts to sound while it is being performed.

•The watch’s calendar shows dates up to the year 2099. Attempting a receive operation after that causes an error.
