Charging the Watch

The face of the watch is a solar panel that generates power from light. The generated power charges a built-in rechargeable battery, which powers watch operations. The watch charges whenever it is exposed to light.

Charging Guide

Whenever you are not wearing the watch, be sure to leave it in a location where it is exposed to light.

x

Best charging performance is achieved by exposing the watch to light that is as strong as possible.

When wearing the watch, makes sure that its face is not blocked from light by the sleeve of your clothing.

x

The watch may enter a sleep state (page E-14) if its face is blocked by your sleeve even only partially.

E-9

Operation Guide 5423

Warning!

Leaving the watch in bright light for charging can cause it to become quite hot.

Take care when handling the watch to avoid burn injury. The watch can become particularly hot when exposed to the following conditions for long periods.

x

On the dashboard of a car parked in direct sunlight x

Too close to an incandescent lamp x

Under direct sunlight

Important!

x

Keep the watch in an area normally exposed to bright light when storing it for long periods. This helps to ensure that power does not run down.

x

Storing the watch for long periods in an area where there is no light or wearing it in such a way that it is blocked from exposure to light can cause power to run down.

Make sure that the watch is exposed to bright light whenever possible.

Radio Controlled Atomic Timekeeping

This watch receives a time calibration signal and updates its time setting accordingly.

However, when using the watch outside of areas covered by time calibration signals, you will have to adjust the settings manually as required. See “Confi guring Current

Time and Date Settings Manually” (page E-36) for more information.

This section explains how the watch updates its time settings when the city code selected as the Home City is in Japan, North America, Europe, or China, and is one that supports time calibration signal reception.

Fukushima (Japan), Fukuoka/Saga (Japan) TOKYO (TYO)

HONOLULU (HNL), ANCHORAGE (ANC),

LOS ANGELES (LAX), DENVER (DEN),

CHICAGO (CHI), NEW YORK (NYC)

Fort Collins, Colorado (United States)

Important!

x

The areas covered by HONOLULU ( HNL ) and ANCHORAGE ( ANC ) are quite far from the calibration signal transmitters, so certain conditions may cause reception problems.

x

When HONOLULU ( HNL ) or HONG KONG ( HKG ) is selected as the Home City, only the time and date are adjusted according to the time calibration signal. You need to switch manually between standard time and daylight saving time (DST) if required. See “To toggle the Home City time between standard time and daylight saving time” (page E-34) for information about how to do this.

To swap your Home City and World Time City

1. In the World Time Mode, use

D

to select the World

Time City you want.

x

In this example, you would move the x Second

Hand to NEW YORK ( NYC ) in order to select New x

York as the World Time City.

Wait until the b Left Dial Hands complete their move to the time in the currently selected World

Time City. You will not be able to perform step 2 of this procedure until the hands stop moving.

2. Hold down B for about three seconds until the x Second Hand starts to move.

x

This will make the World Time City ( NEW YORK ( NYC ) in this example) your new

Home City. At the same time, it will change the Home City you had selected prior to step 2 ( TOKYO ( TYO ) in this example), to your World Time City.

x

After swapping the Home City and World Time City, the watch will stay in the

World Time Mode. The x

Second Hand will point to your new World Time City

( TOKYO ( TYO ) in this example).

E-50 x

The b

Left Dial Hands will indicate the current time in your new World Time City.

Note x

If your current World Time City supports time calibration signal reception, making it your Home City enables calibration signal reception for that city.

Auto Correction of Hand Home Positions

Strong magnetism or impact can cause the hands and/or day setting to be off, even if the watch is able to perform the signal receive operation. Auto correction of hand home positions correct the hand position automatically.

x

Auto correction is performed in the Timekeeping Mode only.

Troubleshooting

Hand Movement and Position

■

I lost track of what mode the watch is in.

Refer to “To select a mode” (page E-30). To return directly to the Timekeeping Mode from any other mode, hold down

C

for about two seconds.

■

The x

Second Hand is moving at two-second intervals.

■

All the watch’s hands are stopped at 12 o’clock and none of the buttons work.

Power may be low. Expose the watch to light until the x

Second Hand starts moving normally, at one-second intervals (page E-11).

■

The hands of the watch suddenly start moving at high speed, even when I do not perform any operation.

This could be due to any one of the following causes. In all cases, the hand movement does not indicate malfunction, and should stop shortly.

x

The watch is recovering from a sleep state (page E-14).

x

The time setting is being adjusted following a successful auto time calibration signal receive operation (page E-16).

■

The current time setting is off by hours.

Your Home City setting may be wrong. Check your Home City setting and correct it, if necessary (page E-32).

E-60

■

The current time setting is off by one hour.

If you are using the watch in an area where time calibration signal reception is possible, see “To confi gure Home City settings” (page E-32).

If you are using in the watch in an area where time calibration signal reception is not possible, you may need to change your Home City’s STD (standard time)/ DST

(daylight saving time) setting manually. Use the procedure under “To toggle the Home

City time between standard time and daylight saving time” (page E-34) to change the

STD / DST setting.

■

The hands and/or day indications are off.

This could indicate that the watch has been exposed to magnetism or strong impact, which has caused problems with proper hand and day alignment. Adjust the watch’s hand and day home position alignment (page E-52).

E-62

■

The x Second Hand starts to move at one-second intervals, but then suddenly returns to moving at two-second intervals.

The watch probably is not suffi ciently charged yet. Continue keeping it exposed to light.

ATHENS ( ATH ), HONOLULU ( HNL ), ANCHORAGE ( ANC ), LOS ANGELES ( LAX ),

DENVER ( DEN ), CHICAGO ( CHI ), NEW YORK ( NYC ), HONG KONG ( HKG ), or

TOKYO ( TYO ) is selected at the Home City. You need to adjust the current time manually when any other city is selected as the Home City.

E-64

■

The current time setting changes after I set it manually.

You may have the watch confi gured for Auto Receive of the time calibration signal

(page E-23), which will cause the time to be adjusted automatically according to your currently selected Home City. If this results in the wrong time setting, check your

Home City setting and correct it, if necessary (page E-32).

■

The current time setting is off by one hour.

Page Possible Cause

Signal reception on a day for switching between STD (standard time)/ DST (daylight saving time) may have failed for some reason.

Remedy

Perform the operation under “To get ready for a receive operation”. The time setting will be adjusted automatically as soon as signal reception is successful.

If you are unable to receive the time calibration signal, change the STD

(standard time)/ DST (daylight saving time) setting manually.
