Troubleshooting

Hand Movement and Position

■I lost track of what mode the watch is in.

Refer to “To select a mode” (page E-41). To return directly to the Timekeeping Mode from any other mode, press and hold the crown button (without unlocking the crown) for at least two seconds.

■When pressing the crown button to enter the Stopwatch Split Mode from the Timekeeping Mode, the crown needs to be held down longer than when switching to another mode.

The watch is designed this way in order to ensure that the Timekeeping Mode is not exited unintentionally due to accidental pressing of the crown button. When entering the Stopwatch Split Mode from the Timekeeping Mode, press the crown button and hold it down until the mode changes.

■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 (page E-18).

■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.

ξThe watch is recovering from a sleep state (page E-23).

ξThe time setting is being adjusted following a successful auto time calibration signal receive operation (page E-24).

ξThe watch is returning to the Timekeeping Mode automatically from the Alarm Mode (page E-78).

E-94

■Hands suddenly stop moving. Button operation also is disabled.

The watch may be in the power recovery mode (page E-20). Do not perform any operation until the hands return to their normal positions (in about 15 minutes). The hands should return to their correct positions when normal operation returns. To help power recover, leave the watch in a location where it is exposed to light.

■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 (page E-45).

■The current time setting is off by one hour.

ξIf you are using the watch in an area where time calibration signal reception is possible, see “To configure Home City settings” (page E-45).

E-95

ξThe watch’s STD-AT (standard time)/DST-AT (daylight saving time) setting can be configured for auto switching in accordance with a time calibration signal. You also can manually override the STD/DST setting configured by the calibration signal.

If you use manual override to select a setting, timekeeping will be off by one hour following an STD/DST switching data in your area, even if the watch is receiving a time calibration signal. Select the correct STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving time) setting to suit your current location (page E-48).

ξIf you are using in 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 time) setting manually. Use the procedure under “To toggle the Home City time between standard time and daylight saving time” (page E-51) to change the STD/DST 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 (page E-88).

E-96

Crown Operations

■The watch seems to change modes on its own.

The watch will change modes whenever you press the button part of the crown. You can disable mode switching when the crown button is pressed, if you want.

See “To disable crown button mode switching” (page E-8).

■The watch will not change modes.

Crown button mode switching may be disabled. Re-enable crown button mode switching.

See “To re-enable crown button mode switching” (page E-9).

■Nothing happens when I rotate the crown while it is pulled out.

You did not perform any operation for more than three minutes while the crown was pulled out, causing operation to become disabled automatically. Push the crown in and pull it back out again to re-enable operation.

See “Using the Crown” (page E-3).

E-97

■Nothing happens when I press the crown button.

To prevent unintentional operation, the button press operation of the crown is disabled automatically for about eight seconds after you push the crown back in. It will become re-enabled after about eight seconds.

See “Pushing the Crown In” (page E-7).

Charging

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

This can happen after the power level drops to Level 3 (page E-18). 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 suffi ciently charged yet. Continue keeping it exposed to light.
