Troubleshooting

Hand Movement and Position

■■The x Second Hand is moving at two second intervals.

■■All the watch’s hands are stopped at 12 o’clock and none of the buttons work.

Power may be low. Expose the watch to light until the x Second Hand starts moving normally, at one-second intervals.

■■The hands of the watch suddenly start moving at high speed, even when I do not perform any operation.

This could be due to any one of the following causes. In all cases, the hand movement does not indicate malfunction, and should stop shortly.

••The watch is recovering from a sleep state.

••The time setting is being adjusted following a successful auto time calibration signal receive operation.

■■The current time setting is off by hours.

Your Home City setting may be wrong. Check your Home City setting and correct it, if necessary.

■■The current time setting is off by one hour.

If you are using the watch in an area where time calibration signal reception is possible, see “To configure Home City settings”.

If you are using the watch in an area where time calibration signal reception is not possible, you may need to change your Home City’s STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer time) setting manually. Use the procedure under “To toggle the Home City time between standard time and daylight saving time” to change the STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer time) setting.

■■The hands and/or day indications are off.

This could indicate that the watch has been exposed to magnetism or strong impact, which has caused problems with proper hand and day alignment. Adjust the watch’s hand and day home position alignment.

World Time

■■The World Time indicated by the n World Time Hour Hand and m World Time

Minute Hand is one hour off from the actual time in the selected time zone.

The STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer time) setting of the selected World Time City may be wrong. Select the correct STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer time) setting.

■■The World Time indicated by the n World Time Hour Hand and m World Time

Minute Hand is off.

Your Home City settings may be wrong. Check your Home City settings and correct them, if necessary.

Charging

■■The watch does not resume operation after I expose it to light.

This can happen after the power level drops to Level 3. Continue exposing the watch to light until the x Second Hand starts moving normally (at one-second intervals).

■■The x Second Hand starts to move at one-second intervals, but then suddenly returns to moving at two-second intervals.

The watch probably is not sufficiently charged yet. Continue keeping it exposed to light.

Time Calibration Signal

The information in this section applies only when LON, PAR, ATH, HNL, ANC, LAX, DEN, CHI, NYC, HKG, or TYO is selected at the Home City. You need to adjust the current time manually when any other city is selected as the Home City.

■■The x Second Hand indicates NO (N) when I check the result of the latest receive operation.

■■The current time setting changes after I set it manually.

You may have the watch configured for Auto Receive of the time calibration signal, which will cause the time to be adjusted automatically according to your currently selected Home City. If this results in the wrong time setting, check your Home City setting and correct it, if necessary.
