※ Even if the watch is located within the radio signal reception range, the watch may fail to receive radio signals depending on its
reception environment which is often infl uenced by a combination of factors including weather, terrain, buildings, direction etc.
→ Conditions in which the watch may be unable to receive radio signals ⇒ P118

■ To Improve radio signal reception

・Place the watch in a place where it can easily receive a radio signal such as near a window.
The antenna is embedded at the 12 o' clock position of the watch. Turning the antenna toward the
outside of a window or the direction facing transmitting stations helps improve radio signal reception.
※ Locations of transmitting stations → Radio signal reception range Indication P112
・Do not move the watch while it is receiving radio signals.
To enhance the reception of radio signals, do not move the watch or do not
change the orientation of the watch while it is receiving radio signals.
※ If the button is operated while the watch is receiving a radio signal, the reception will be cancelled.
MSF is operated by NPL.
