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
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

If you release
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.
1.
The hands will move automatically in order to determine the home positions of the
watch.
2.
After the hand home positions are determined, the watch will return to normal
timekeeping automatically. This completes the correction operation.
Adjusting Home Positions Manually
Strong magnetism or impact can cause the hands and/or date 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.

Troubleshooting
Hand Movement and Position
I 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.
I The x Second Hand is moving at two second intervals.
I 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.
I 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.
I 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 power recovers. To help power recover, leave the
watch in a location where it is exposed to light.
I
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.
I 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 confi gure Home City settings".
If you are using 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/summer 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.
I 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
I 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 World Time City.
The STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer time) setting of the selected
World Time City may be wrong. Select the correct STD (standard time)/DST (daylight
saving/summer time) setting.
I The World Time indicated by the n Right Dial Hands in the World Time Mode
is off.
Your Home City settings may be wrong. Check your Home City settings and correct
them, if necessary.
Charging
I 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).
I 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 suffi ciently charged yet. Continue keeping it exposed to
light.
Time Calibration Signal
The information in this section applies only when LON, PAR, ATH, HNL, ANC, LAX,
DEN, CHI, NYC, HKG, or 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.
I The x Second Hand indicates NO (N) when I check the result of the latest
receive operation.

setting and correct it, if necessary.
