■ Signal reception is being performed successfully, but the time and/or day is wrong.
Possible Cause Remedy Page
Your Home City setting is wrong.
Check your Home City setting and correct it, if
necessary.
E-21
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 positions. E-30
E-38
■ 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-15), 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-21).
■ The current time setting is off by one hour.
Possible Cause Remedy Page
Signal reception on a day for switching between
STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer
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.
E-14
If you are unable to receive the time calibration
signal, change the STD (standard time)/DST
(daylight saving/summer time) setting manually.
E-21
■ Auto Receive is not performed or I cannot perform Manual Receive.
Possible Cause Remedy Page
Your Home City setting is wrong.
Check your Home City setting and correct it, if
necessary.
E-21
There is not enough power for signal reception. Expose the watch to light to charge it. E-7
E-37
■ 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.
Time Calibration Signal
The information in this section applies only when LONDON (LON), PARIS (PAR), ATHENS (ATH),
HONOLULU (HNL), ANCHORAGE (ANC), LOS ANGELES (LAX), DENVER (DEN), CHICAGO (CHI),
NEW YORK (NYC), HONG KONG (HKG), or TOKYO (TYO) is selected as the Home City. You need to
adjust the current time manually when any other city is selected as the Home City.
■ The
x
Second Hand indicates NO (N) when I check the result of the latest receive operation.
Possible Cause Remedy Page
You are wearing or moving the watch, or x
performing a button operation during the signal
receive operation.
The watch is in an area with poor reception x
conditions.
Keep the watch in an area where reception
conditions are good while the signal receive
operation is being performed.
E-14
You are in an area where signal reception is not
possible for some reason.
See “Approximate Reception Ranges”. E-12
The calibration signal is not being transmitted for
some reason.
Check the website of the organization that x
maintains the time calibration signal in your area
for information about its down times.
Try again later.

■ 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-21).
If you are using 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/summer time) setting manually.
Use the procedure under “To confi gure Home City settings” (page E-21) 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-30).
World Time
■ World Time is one hour off from the actual time in the selected time zone.
The STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer time) setting of the selected World Time City may
be wrong. Select the correct STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer time) setting (page E-29).
■ World Time is not indicated correctly.
Your Home City settings may be wrong. Check your Home City settings and correct them, if necessary
(page E-21).
Charging
■ The watch does not resume operation after I expose it to light.
This can happen after the power level drops to Level 3 (page E-8). Continue exposing the watch to light
until the
x
Second Hand starts moving normally (at one-second intervals).
E-35
Troubleshooting
Hand Movement and Position
■ 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-8).
■ 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.
The watch is recovering from a sleep state (page E-10).
x
The time setting is being adjusted following a successful auto time calibration signal receive operation x
(page E-11).
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

Adjusting Home Positions Manually
Strong magnetism or impact can cause the hands and/or day of the watch to be off, even if the watch
is able to perform the signal receive operation. If this happens, perform the applicable home position
adjustment procedures in this section.
Hand home position adjustment is not required if the time and day settings are correct.
x
You also can use auto correction of the hand home positions (page E-30) to correct the home positions x
of the
z
Hour Hand,
c
Minute Hand, and
x
Second Hand.
Note
Any time after you enter the home position adjustment mode in step 1 of the following procedure, you
can return to regular timekeeping by pressing A. The watch also will return to regular timekeeping
automatically if you do not perform any operation for about two or three minutes in the home position
adjustment mode. In either case, any adjustments you made before the watch returned to regular
timekeeping will be applied.
