CAUTION
The watch may display the wrong time if it fails to receive radio signals
●
properly because of interference. The watch may also fail to receive
radio signals properly depending on the location or radio wave receiving
conditions. In this case, move the watch to another place where it can
receive radio signals.
When the watch is out of reception range, its accurate quartz movement
●
(loss / gain: ±15 seconds per month on average) will continue to keep
the time.
The time signal transmission may be stopped during maintenance of
●
the facilities of the (each) transmitting station or because of a lightning
strike. In such a case, see the (each) station's website for fur ther
information.
