TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem:

No WWVB signal (indicated by the absence of the WWVB tower icon).

Solution:

1) Check the selected Time Zone. If it is set between GMT+1 and GMT

 

+12. The WWVB signal will not be received because the watch is

 

programmed not to search when outside of the range of the WWVB signal.

 

Change the Time Zone to one of the time zone of the U.S and the watch

 

will again search for the WWVB signal overnight.

 

2) Move watch 10 feet (3 meters) away from any interfering sources, i.e.

 

electrical appliances (refrigerators, TV’s, computers), metal surfaces or

 

objects.

 

3) To help with overnight reception, place watch in a window with the

 

band inline with the general direction of Ft. Collins, Colorado.

 

4) There are a few places the signal is very weak (Los Angeles area, Some

 

parts of Florida and New York City). Since the watch has a much smaller

 

receiver than our other clocks, it is possible no reception can be made.

 

Please inform La Crosse Technology in this case.

Problem:

The hour or minute is incorrect, even though the tower icon is on

 

(indicating a successful reception of the WWVB time signal the previous

 

night) and it is set to the proper time zone.

Solution:

1) Electrical interference caused the time signal to be improperly received.

 

Be sure the watch is at least ten feet from any source of electrical activity

 

(television, computer). Overnight it should correct itself.

 

2) You may need to perform a manual WWVB search. Please follow the

 

directions outlined in section III.
