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.
The watch is designed to update the date and day of the week automatically for the period January
1, 2000 to December 31, 2099. Updating of the date by signal reception will no longer be performed
starting from January 1, 2100.
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-52).
The receive operation is disabled under any of the following conditions.

About TIME 2
This watch supports two Home Cities: a main Home City (TIME 1) and a second Home City (TIME 2).
TIME 2 also can be confi gured with one of 29 city codes (time zones) around the world. While TIME 2 is
selected in the Timekeeping Mode, the alarm, and time calibration signal auto receive functions operate in
accordance with the TIME 2 time.
If the city code you select for TIME 2 supports time calibration signal reception (page E-11), signal
reception will be performed accordingly when TIME 2 is selected.
When the watch corrects the current time setting in accordance with a time calibration signal, it will
correct both the TIME 1 and TIME 2 settings.
Support for two Home Cities allows you to do the following.
