2. Place the watch in a stable location near a window where the radio wave can be easily
received with the 9:00 position pointing towards the transmitter.
L Subsequently, the second hand will move from the RX position to the H, M, or L
position during reception.
L When reception is finished, the second hand will move from the H, M, or L
position and return to 1-second interval movement.
(This may take up to approx. 13 minutes.)
Refer to “Confirming the Reception Status” (p.139) to check the reception status.
Recovery automatic reception
If the watch stops due to insufficient charging, expose
the watch to sunlight to recharge it. When the watch is
recharged sufficiently, it will automatically receive the
radio wave once. Regularly charge your watch so it
does not become insufficiently charged.
* If the lower right button (A) is pressed for more than
1 seconds during reception, the reception will be
cancelled and the hands will return to the current
time.

8. Receiving the Radio Waves
Three types of radio wave reception are possible: Automatic reception, on demand
reception and recovery automatic reception. When the radio wave has been properly
received, your watch will automatically adjust the time and date.
Automatic reception
L It is not necessary to operate buttons to perform automatic reception.
Place the watch in a stable location near a window where the radio wave can be easily
received with the 9:00 position (antenna for receiving the radio waves) pointing
towards the transmitter. The watch will receive the radio waves automatically at 2 a.m.
every day. If the radio wave cannot be received at 2 a.m., it will try again at 4 a.m.
On demand reception (manual reception)
L Radio waves can be received at any time.
Use this function when automatic reception is impossible.
1. Remove the watch from the wrist, then press the lower right button (A) for more
than 2 seconds and release it when the second hand rapidly moves and stops at the
RX position.
