4. Receiving Radio Waves
· There are three ways to receive radio waves consisting of regular automatic reception,
free reception and recovery automatic reception. The time (including daylight savings
time) and date are corrected automatically when radio waves have been properly received.
[Note] Do not move the watch until reception is completed.
1. Regular Automatic Reception
· The watch automatically begins to receive radio waves at 3:00 AM or 4:00 AM each day.
(Radio waves are not received at 4:00 AM if they have been successfully received at 3:00
AM.)
(1) When receiving radio waves, remove the watch from your wrist and place it in a stable
location where radio waves can be received easily such as by a window with the 6:00
position of the watch facing in the direction of the radio wave transmitter station.
(2) After the second hand has moved to the reception standby (RX) position, it moves to H,
M or L to indicate that reception of radio waves is in progress after which the watch
begins to receive radio waves.
(3) reception is completed, the second hand automatically moves from H, M or L to the
correct time.
