[Checking the Reference Position]
Before using the watch, confirm that the hands are aligned with
“0”, similar to when setting weighing scales
i The reference position may become misaligned when the
watch is exposed to strong magnetism, static electricity
or impacts. Even if radio waves are received, the correct
time will not be indicated unless the watch hands are
aligned to the correct reference position. Check that the
hands are properly aligned with “0”.
Examples of magnetic products that can affect the
watch.
• Health products (for example, medical necklaces and waist bands
that have magnetic fields)
• Refrigerators (magnetic part of the door)
• Electromagnetic cookers
• Bags (with magnet fasteners)
• Mobile phones (speaker part)
Keep the watch away from items similar to those above.
