What you should do next depends on whether you are using Auto Receive or
Manual Receive.
Auto Receive: Leave the watch over night in the location you selected in step 2.
See "Auto Receive" on page E-21 for details.
Manual Receive: Perform the operation under "To perform manual receive" on
page E-22.
Auto Receive
With Auto Receive, the watch performs the receive operation each day
automatically up to three times between the hours of 2 a.m. and 4 a.m. (1 a.m.
and 3 a.m. for the Chinese calibration signal). When any receive operation is
successful, none of the other receive operations for that day are performed.
When a calibration time is reached, the watch will perform the receive operation
only if it is in the regular timekeeping. The receive operation is not performed if a
calibration time is reached while you are confi guring settings.
When the receive operation is successful, the watch
adjusts the time setting accordingly. It does not adjust
the setting if the operation failed.
Note
To interrupt a receive operation and return to the
regular timekeeping, press any button.
Radio-controlled Atomic Timekeeping Precautions
Strong electrostatic charge can result in the wrong time setting.
Even if a receive operation is successful, certain conditions can cause the time
setting to be off by up to one second.
If you are in an area where signal reception is not possible, the watch keeps time
with the precision noted in "Specifi cations" (page E-46).
The receive operation is disabled under any of the following conditions.
−
While power is at Level 2 or lower (page E-12)
−
When the watch is in the function sleep state ("Power Saving", page E-15)
b Ornament is moving (page E-32)
