4. Reception of Radio Waves
There are three ways to receive radio waves consisting of Automatic Reception, On
Demand Reception and Recovery Automatic Reception. Always make sure to
remove the watch from your wrist to receive radio waves. When reception is completed,
each hand automatically moves forward or backward to the received time.
Automatic Reception (Automatic reception of radio waves)
i Place the watch in a stable location where radio waves can be received easily such as
by a window with the 9:00 position of the watch facing in the direction of the radio
wave transmitter station. Radio waves are automatically received at 2:00 AM every
day, or if they are unable to be received at that time, are automatically received at
4:00 every day.
On Demand Reception (Manual reception of radio waves)
i This function allows you receive radio waves at any time.
Step 1): Continuously depress the lower right button (A) for about 2 seconds,
and release when the second hand has rapidly advanced to "RX" and
stopped.
Step 2): Place the watch in a stable location where radio waves can be received
easily such as by a window with the 9:00 position of the watch facing in
the direction of the radio wave transmitter station.

The second hand then moves from RX to H, M or L indicating that radio
waves are being received.
L
When reception is completed, the second hand moves from H, M or L and
returns to 1-second interval movement.
The reception result can be confirmed by referring to "4. B. Confirmation of
Reception Result".
Recovery Automatic Reception
i After the watch has stopped as a result of being insufficiently
charged, radio waves are received once automatically when
the watch is sufficiently recharged by exposing to light. Try to
keep the watch charged at all times so that it does not become
insufficiently charged.
* When the watch is receiving the radio wave signal, all of the hands will stop. To check
the time, hold the lower right button (A) for 2 seconds to cancel radio wave reception.
The hands will then return to the current time.
