7. Manual start
If after an automatic restart your watch fails to pick up the radio signal or the
restart gets interrupted, you can set the time manually using the manual
start routine.
To go to manual start, abort the restart process. To do so, wait for the hands
to reach the 12 o’clock position and then press the T2 button for over
3 seconds.
Manual start mode is indicated by the display showing the year, e.g. [99].
Every time you press the T1 button the display advances by one year. Once
you have reached the current year, you need to confirm this by briefly pres-
sing the T2 button.
The LCD display now switches to showing the month setting [12]. This is
again adjusted via the T1 button. You again need to confirm the month you
want by a short press of the T2 button.
Perform the following settings using the procedure described above:
x Set the date - what is shown on the LCD display switches to the last date
of the month, e.g. [31]
x Set the hour – what is shown on the LCD display switches to [23]
x Set the minutes – what is shown on the LCD display switches to [59]
For the correct time to be shown, please ensure that you always set your
watch to the next full minute and confirm the time at the 60
th
second.
6. Changing battery / Reset
After the battery is changed or the watch reset, a restart is automatically
triggered.
Please note: batteries should be changed only by an authorised specialist
dealer or the Junghans Service Centre. To trigger a reset, press T2 for more
than 16 seconds or until the LCD display clears. All stored time information
gets deleted.
The hands move to the 12 o’clock position and the DCF 77 transmitter signal
reception phase begins. After a few minutes (in optimum reception condi-
tions), the watch sets itself to the exact time. If your radio-controlled watch
is unable to pick up the time signal, it will automatically make further syn-
chronisation attempts at a later time (every 6 hours).
Using the manual start function (7.), you are also able to adjust the time
manually right away.
This also applies if you are outside of the range of the DCF 77 transmitter and
want to start using your watch again after a change of battery.
