Operation Guide 5060

The x Second Hand indicates NO (N) when I check the result of the latest
receive operation.
Possible Cause Remedy
You are wearing or moving the •
watch, or performing a button
operation during the signal receive
operation.
The watch is in an area with poor •
reception conditions.
Keep the watch in an area where reception
conditions are good while the signal receive
operation is performed.
You are in an area where signal
reception is not possible for some
reason.
See “Approximate Reception Ranges”.
The calibration signal is not being
transmitted for some reason.
Check the website of the organization that •
maintains the time calibration signal in your area
for information about its down times.
Try again later. •
The current time setting changes after I set it manually.
You may have the watch configured for Auto Receive of the time calibration signal,
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.
The current time setting is off by one hour.
Possible Cause Remedy
Signal reception on a day for
switching between STD (standard
time)/DST (daylight saving time) may
have failed for some reason.
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.
Auto Receive is not performed or I cannot perform Manual Receive.
Possible Cause Remedy
The watch is in the Stopwatch Mode
or Countdown Timer Mode.
Auto Receive is not performed while the watch is
in the Stopwatch Mode or Countdown Timer Mode.
Hold down C for about two seconds to enter the
Timekeeping Mode.
Your Home City setting is wrong.
Check your Home City setting and correct it, if
necessary.
A countdown timer operation is in
progress.
Both Auto Receive and Manual Receive are
impossible while a countdown is in progress. In the
Countdown Timer Mode, stop the timer operation
and then return to the Timekeeping Mode.
There is not enough power for signal
reception.
Expose the watch to light to charge it.
Signal reception is being performed successfully, but the time and/or day is
wrong.
Possible Cause Remedy
Your Home City setting is wrong.
Check your Home City setting and correct it, if
necessary.
The watch may have 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.
