Time Calibration Signal Auto Receive
Important!
x To perform time calibration signal auto receive, the watch must be in the Timekeeping Mode (not in the
Airplane Mode). See “Mode Reference Guide” (page E-14).
●
Leave the watch in a location that is appropriate for time calibration signal reception between
the hours of midnight and 5:00 a.m. See “Appropriate Signal Reception Location (Time
Calibration Signal)” (page E-12).
x The second hand will point to RC while time calibration signal reception is in progress.
x Reception normally takes anywhere from about two to ten minutes, but it can take as long as
20minutes.
x When the receive operation is successful, the time and day settings will be adjusted automatically.

Timekeeping (Based on a Time Calibration Signal)
Appropriate Signal Reception Location (Time Calibration Signal)
x Keep the watch away from metal and position it so its 12 o’clock side is
facing a window. Avoid moving the watch as much as possible and do
not perform any watch operations while a signal receive operation is in
progress.
●
You may experience time calibration signal reception problems in
the areas described below.
- Among or near buildings
- While riding in a vehicle
- Near household appliances, offi ce machines, mobile phones, etc.
- On a construction site, in an airport, or any other location where radio
wave interference occurs
- Near high-voltage lines
- In mountainous areas or behind a mountain
x Always check the time setting on the day there should be switch between
standard time and summer time (DST). If the setting is not correct (due to
signal reception failure), turn DST on or off manually as required.

GPS Signal Auto Receive
Important!
x Perform the signal receive operation in the Timekeeping Mode (not in the Airplane Mode). See “Mode
Reference Guide” (page E-14).
●
GPS signal time information is received automatically whenever all of the conditions described
below are satisfi ed.
- The current time is between 6:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m.
- The face of the watch has been exposed continuously for about one or two minutes to light
equivalent to the brightness near a window on a clear day.
- All time calibration signal receive operations performed during the previous night were unsuccessful.
●
After exiting the Airplane Mode, position information will be acquired automatically from GPS
when the conditions below are satisfi ed.
- The time is between 6:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m.
- The face of the watch is exposed continuously for about one or two minutes to light equivalent to
the brightness near a window on a clear day.

◆ Receiving GPS Time Information
Perform this operation when you suspect that the time normally indicated by the watch is not correct.
x If the GPS signal time information receive operation is successful the watch will automatically adjust
the current time and day settings of the Home City (time zone).
Important!
x Perform this operation in the Timekeeping Mode (not in the Airplane Mode). See “Mode Reference
Guide” (page E-14).
1. Move to a location appropriate for signal reception and orient the
watch so its display is pointed straight up at the sky. See “Appropriate
Signal Reception Location (GPS Signal)” (page E-8).
2. Hold down B for at least one second. Release the button as soon as
the second hand points to T (TIME).
x Reception normally takes anywhere from seven seconds to one
minute. It can take as long as 13 minutes.
x When the receive operation is successful, the watch will adjust its
current time and day settings automatically.
x This operation requires large amounts of power. Perform it only
when necessary.

Performing a GPS Signal Receive Operation Manually
◆ Acquiring GPS Position Information
When position information is acquired successfully, the watch is able to determine its current location
and adjust its time and day setting accordingly.
Important!
x Perform this operation in the Timekeeping Mode (not in the Airplane Mode). See “Mode Reference
Guide” (page E-14).
1. Move to a location appropriate for signal reception and orient the watch so its face is pointing straight
upwards.
x See “Appropriate Signal Reception Location (GPS Signal)” (page E-8).
2. Hold down B for at least three seconds until the second hand moves
to T+P. If the second hand moves to any other position besides T+P,
keep B depressed until it moves to T+P.
x Position information reception takes anywhere from about 30
seconds to two minutes. It can take as long as 13 minutes.
x Successful acquisition of position information will automatically
display the time and day for the resulting location.
x In the normal (not Airplane Mode) Timekeeping Mode, the mode
hand indicates the current day of the week.
x Position information acquisition requires large amounts of power.
Perform the acquisition operation only when it is required.
