Using the Alarm
When the alarm is turned on, an alarm will sound for about 10 seconds each day when the time in the
Timekeeping Mode reaches the preset alarm time. This is true even if the watch is not in the Timekeeping
Mode.
Hand Functions

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.
Auto correction is performed in the Timekeeping Mode only. •
Auto correction corrects the positions of the •
z Hour Hand, c Minute Hand, and x Second Hand. For
the dial hands and day, you must perform the manual adjustment procedure under “Adjusting Home
Positions Manually”.
Each hour, the watch performs automatic correction of the hand positions from –55 minutes to +5 •
minutes.
You also can trigger auto correction of hand home positions manually, if you want. See “To trigger auto •
correction of hand home positions” for more information.
Auto correction of hand home positions can take up to three and a half minutes to complete. •
If hand positions are off by one hour or more, correct them using the procedure under “To trigger auto •
correction of hand home positions” or “Adjusting Home Positions Manually”.
To trigger auto correction of hand home positions
Perform the following procedure when the time setting is off. •
In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down D for about six seconds until the
x
Second Hand completes one full revolution.
Though the •
x Second Hand will stop momentarily about three seconds after
you hold down D, do not release the button yet. Wait until the
x Second
Hand completes a full revolution before you release D.
To interrupt an ongoing correction operation and return to the Timekeeping •
Mode, press D again.
If you release • D when the
x Second Hand stops the first time (after about
three seconds) in the above operation, the watch will enter the home position
adjustment mode, which is described under “Adjusting Home Positions
Manually”. If this happens, press A to return to the Timekeeping Mode and
then perform the above operation again.
Manually triggered auto correction of hand home positions performs the •
following two steps.
The hands will move automatically in order to determine the home positions 1.
of the watch.
After the hand home positions are determined, the watch will return to 2.
normal timekeeping automatically. This completes the correction operation.
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. •
You also can use auto correction of the hand home positions to correct the home positions 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 the Timekeeping Mode by pressing A. The watch also will return to the Timekeeping
Mode 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 the
Timekeeping Mode will be applied.
To adjust home positions manually
Hold down 1. C at least two seconds until the watch beeps twice and enters
the Timekeeping Mode.
Hold down 2. D for about three seconds until the watch beeps.
The watch is now in the home position adjustment mode. •
The watch will exit the adjustment mode automatically if you do not •
perform any operation for about two or three minutes.
First is •
x Second Hand home position adjustment.
If the • x Second Hand moves to 12 o’clock, it is in the correct home
position. If it doesn’t, use D to move it to 12 o’clock.
Each press of • C in the home position adjustment mode will cycle through
the adjustment settings as shown below

Troubleshooting
Hand Movement and Position
 I lost track of what mode the watch is in.
Refer to “To select a mode”. To return directly to the Timekeeping Mode from any other mode, hold down
C at least 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.
 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. •
The time setting is being adjusted following a successful auto time calibration signal receive operation. •
The watch is returning to the Timekeeping Mode automatically from the Alarm Mode. •
 Hands suddenly stop moving. Button operation also is disabled.
The watch may be in the power recovery mode. Do not perform any operation until the hands return to
their normal positions (in about 15 minutes). The hands should return to their correct positions when
normal operation returns. To help power recover, leave the watch in a location where it is exposed to light.
 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.
 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 configure
Home City settings”.
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” 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.
World Time Mode
 The World Time indicated by the
n Right Dial Hands in the World Time Mode is one hour off from
the actual time in the selected time zone.
The STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving time) setting of the selected World Time City may be
wrong. Select the correct STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving time) setting.
 The World Time indicated by the
n Right Dial Hands in the World Time Mode is off.
Your Home City setting may be wrong. Check your Home City setting and correct it, if necessary.
Charging
 The watch does not resume operation after I expose it to light.
This can happen after the power level drops to Level 3. Continue exposing the watch to light until the
x
Second Hand starts moving normally (at one-second intervals).
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 sufficiently 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
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 being
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) 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)
setting manually.
