• Even in an area where signal strength is strong, it takes about 10 seconds for signal
reception to stabilize enough for the receiving indicator to indicate signal strength.
• Use the receiving indicator as a guide for checking signal strength and for finding the
best location for the watch during signal receive operations.
• The receiving indicator (Level 4) remains on the display in all modes (except the
Recall Mode) following reception of the time calibration signal and calibration of the
watch's time setting. The receiving indicator (Level 4) is not displayed if signal
reception was unsuccessful or after manual adjustment of the current time setting.
• The receiving indicator (Level 4) is displayed only when the watch is able to
successfully receive both time and date data. It does not appear when only time data
is received.
• The receiving indicator (Level 4) indicates that at least one of the three calibration
signal receive operations was successful. Note, however, that the receiving indicator
(Level 4) is cleared from the display at 3:00 AM each day.

Time Memo
The Time Memo feature of your watch lets you create up to 100 time memos, each of
which includes fields for time, date, data tag, and text. Time memos come in handy
when you need to keep track of your activities. Time memos are automatically sorted
chronologically on their date and time fields. You can recall records by scrolling
through them on the display.
• You can create a time memo starting from the Mode Menu screen or from the
Timekeeping Mode.
• Use the Recall Mode to recall time memos and to input time memo text.
• You can assign any one of the following nine data tags to a time memo.
