Operation Guide 2734 58 3748 9
• The current time setting in accordance with the time calibration signal takes priority
over any time settings you make.
• The watch is designed to automatically update the date and day of the week for the
period January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2039. Setting of the date by the time
calibration signal cannot be performed starting from January 1, 2040.
• This watch can receive signals that differentiate between leap years and non-leap
years.
• Though this watch is designed to receive both time data (hour, minutes, seconds)
and date data (year, month, day), certain signal conditions can limit reception to
time data only.
• Normally, the signal reception date shown by the Last Signal screen is the date
data included in the received time calibration signal. When only time data is
received, however, the Last Signal screen shows date as kept in the Timekeeping
Mode at the time of signal reception.
• If you are in an area where proper time calibration signal reception is impossible,
the watch keeps time within ±20 seconds a month at normal temperature.
• If you have problems with proper time calibration signal reception or if the time
setting is wrong after signal reception, check your transmitter, current city code,
DST (summer time), and auto receive settings. The following are the initial factory
defaults for these settings.

Transmitters
This watch is designed to receive the time calibration signal transmitted from Rugby,
England and the signal from Mainflingen, Germany. You can select either one of the
transmitters, or you can configure the watch to automatically select the transmitter
that has the strongest signal.
• The following explains how the watch determines which transmitter it should check
first while the watch is configured for auto transmitter search (
Module 2734 and 3749
In this case:
The watch does this:
The first signal auto search operation
after factory default settings are in effect,
or after the city code has been changed
Any case other than the above.
Module 2758 and 3748
In this case:
The watch does this:
The first signal auto search operation
after factory default settings are in effect,
or after the city code has been changed
Any case other than the above.
• Since the watch checks signals from both transmitters when
the transmitter setting, the signal receive operation can take as long as 12 minutes.
• To find out the module number of your watch, look at its
2734
back cover. The Module number (2734, 2758, 3748, or
3749) will be engraved inside the box on the back
2758
cover.
To select a transmitter
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down A until the
transmitter indicator starts to flash, which indicates the
setting screen.
2. Use D to scroll through available transmitter settings
until the one you want to select is displayed.
To set up the watch to do this:
Automatically select the Rugby or Mainflingen signal
Receive the Mainflingen signal
Receive the Rugby signal
• Note that

besides
LON
,
PAR
,
BER
, or
ATH
indicates that you cannot specify a transmitter.
3.Press A twice to exit the setting screen.
Timekeeping
• Resetting the seconds to
00
while the current count is in the range of 30 to 59
causes the minutes to be increased by 1. In the range of 00 to 29, the seconds are
00
reset to
without changing the minutes.
• The day of the week is automatically displayed in accordance with the date (year,
month, and day) settings.
• The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2039.
• The watch's built-in full automatic calendar makes allowances for different month
lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no reason to
change it except after you have the watch's battery replaced.
• The current time for all city codes in the Timekeeping Mode and World Time Mode
is calculated in accordance with the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) differential for
each city, based on your Home City time setting.
• GMT differential is calculated by this watch based on Universal Time Coordinated
(UTC*) data.
* The letters "UTC" stands for "Universal Time Coordinated," which is the world-wide scientific
standard of timekeeping. It is based upon carefully maintained atomic (cesium) clocks that
keep time accurately to within microseconds. Leap seconds are added or subtracted as
necessary to keep UTC in sync with the Earth's rotation. The reference point for UTC is
Greenwich, England.

12-hour/24-hour Timekeeping Formats
The 12-hour/24-hour timekeeping format you select in the Timekeeping Mode is also
applied in all other modes.
• With the 12-hour format, the P (PM) indicator appears on the display for times in
the range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and no indicator appears for times in the range of
midnight to 11:59 a.m.
• With the 24-hour format, times are displayed in the range of 0:00 to 23:59. The
indicator 24 indicates the 24-hour format.
Backlight Precautions
The backlight uses an EL (electro-luminescent) panel for easy reading in the dark.
In any mode, press B to illuminate the display for about one second.
• The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after very
long use.
• The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under
direct sunlight.
• The watch may emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is
due to vibration of the EL panel used for illumination, and does not indicate
malfunction.
• The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
• Frequent use of the backlight shortens the battery life.
