When a radio signal cannot be received

When a radio signal cannot be received, refer to the following pages:
• Not receivable within the radio signal reception range
Check that the time difference of the area where the watch is used is set.
When the time and date are misaligned even after the time difference is correctly selected, refer to
Troubleshooting. "Reception of a radio signal" → P.71
Since a radio signal cannot be received, the time and date became misaligned. In this case, set the time
and date manually.
"How to manually set the time" → P.59
"How to manually set the date" → P.61
* For the radio signal reception ranges, refer to "Radio signal reception range indication" → P.18.

■ How to manually set the time

If the watch is continually used in an environment in which a radio signal cannot be received (a region other than the
radio signal reception ranges, etc.), set the time manually.
"Radio signal reception range indication" → P.18
• When the watch is used in an environment in which a radio signal can be received again, receive a radio signal to
set the time. "Automatic reception and manual reception" → P.17
• When adjusting the time, the date will be accordingly adjusted.
* Even if a radio signal cannot be received, the watch can be used with the same accuracy as that of a normal quartz watch.
(Average gain/loss ±15 seconds per month)
* When the watch receives radio signals after the time is manually adjusted, it displays the time received from radio signals.
