WImportant Points Regarding Radio Wave
ReceptionW
The two ways to receive radio waves that are ordinarily used
consist of Regular Automatic Reception and Free Reception.
When receiving radio waves, first remove the watch from your
wrist, face the 9:00 position on the watch towards the radio wave
transmitter station, and place the watch in a stable location that
facilitates reception of radio waves such as in front of a window.
Since the watch uses a directional antenna, moving the watch
while reception is in progress may prevent radio waves from
being properly received. When reception
is completed, the second hand returns to
one-second interval movement. Do not
move the watch until radio wave
reception is completed.

[Regular Automatic Reception]
The watch sets the time and date by automatically receiving radio waves at the
predetermined times of 3:00 AM and 4:00 AM each day.
<Confirmation of Reception>
Check the reception result to determine whether or not radio waves have been
received properly by pressing button (A) located at the 4:00 position once. If the
shorter end of the second hand points to H, M or L, this indicates that radio waves
have been received properly. The watch can now be used.
If the shorter end of the second hand points to NO at the 5:00 position, this means
that radio waves were unable to be received properly. If this happens, perform
radio wave reception using the Free Reception function.
[Free Reception]
The Free Reception function lets you receive radio waves at any time. Use this
function when the reception environment has changed or in other cases when radio
waves are unable to be received by Regular Automatic Reception.
