3. While pushing in on the crown (a), rotate i t to the right (b) until it stops and Mark 3 is aligned with Mark 2.

4. Gently pull on the crown to make sure it is securely locked and does not come out.

To unlock the crown
Rotate the crown so Mark 3 aligns with Mark 1.

Crown Operations

The crown can be pulled out to one o f two (click) positions. Never apply undue force when pulling out the crown.
Important!

• In order t o ensure full water resistance and to prevent damage due to impact, make sure that the crown is normally pushed in fully when using the watch.
• When pulling out the crown, avoid using undue force, which creates the risk of personal injury to your fingers and fingernails, and o f watch malfunction.

High-speed Movement
When setting a time or when performing home position adjustment (page E-45), you can move the hands either forward or back at high speed. There are two high-speed levels: HS1 and HS2 (faster than HS1).

To start HS1 high-speed movement

While the crown is pulled out, rotate it rapidly three turns away from you (for forward movement) or towards you (for reverse movement). High-speed movement will continue even if you release the crown.
To start HS2 high-speed movement

While HS1 high-speed movement is progress, again rotate the crown rapidly three turns in the same direction as the current HS1 movement (away from you for forward movement or towards you for reverse movement).
To stop high-speed movement

Rotate the crown in the direction that is opposite that of the current high- speed movement or press any button.
Important!

• Leaving the crown pulled out for more than two minutes (approximately 30 minutes in the case of hand home position adjustment) without performing any operation will automatically cause crown operations to become disabled. If this happens, press the crown back in, pull it out, and then start the operation over again.

Things to check before using the watch

1. Observe the movement o f the [2] Second Hand.

2. Check the Home City.
   Use the procedure under “To configure Home City settings” (page E-24) to configure your Home City.
   Important!
   Proper time calibration signal reception depends on correct Home City, time, and date settings in the Dual Time Mode. Make sure you configure these settings correctly.

3. Set the current time.
   •  To set the time using a time calibration signal
   See “To get ready for a receive operation” (page E-16).
   •  To set the time manually
   See “Configuring Current Time and Date Settings Manually” (page E-28).
   The watch is now ready for use.
   • For details about the watch’s radio controlled timekeeping feature, see “Radio Controlled Atomic Timekeeping” (page E-14).

Charging the Watch

The face o f the watch is a solar panel that generates power from light. The generated power charges a built-in rechargeable battery, which powers watch operations. The watch charges whenever it is exposed to light.
Charging Guide

Whenever you are not wearing the watch, be sure to leave it in a location where it is exposed to light.

• Best charging performance is achieved by exposing the watch t o light that is as strong as possible.

When wearing the watch, makes sure that its face is not blocked from light by the sleeve of your clothing.

• The watch may enter a sleep state (page E-13) if its face is blocked by your sleeve even only partially.

Warning!
Leaving the watch in bright light for charging can cause it to become quite hot. Take care when handling the watch to avoid burn injury. The watch can become particularly hot when exposed to the following conditions for long periods.

• On the dashboard of a car parked in direct sunlight
• Too close to an incandescent lamp
• Under direct sunlight

Important!
e Keep the watch in an area normally exposed to bright light when storing it for long periods. This helps to ensure that power does not run down.
Storing the watch for long periods in an area where there is no light or wearing it in such a way that it is blocked from exposure to light can cause power to run down. Make sure that the watch is exposed to bright light whenever possible.

Power Levels

You can get an idea of the watch’s power level by observing the movement of the [2] Second Hand.

• If the [2] Second Hand is moving normally at one-second intervals, power is at Level 1.

• If the [2] Second Hand is moving at two-second intervals, power is at Level 2, which is quite low (Low battery alert). Expose the watch to light as soon as possible so it can charge.
  Level| Hand Movement| Function Status
  ---|---|---
  1| Normal.| All functions enabled
  2| [2] Second Hand moves at two-second intervals.| Beeper, time calibration signal reception, countdown timer operation, and home position adjustment disabled
  3| All hands stopped at 12 o’clock.
  [9] Day Indicator between 31 and 1.| All functions disabled

• When power drops to Level 3, all settings (including timekeeping) will be cleared. Recharging the
  battery will reset all settings to their initial factory defaults, so you will need to configure settings again.

• When the watch is at Level 3, exposing it t o light for a while will cause the [2] Second Hand t o move to the position o f second 57. This indicates that charging has started.

Power Recovery Mode
The watch is designed to go into a power recovery mode that stops hand operation temporarily whenever power suddenly drops below a certain level due to continuous signal reception, or overuse of the alarm tone over a short period or other operations over a short period. Note that all operations are disabled while the watch is in the power recovery mode.
The hands will move to the correct positions and the watch will resume normal operation after power recovers. Putting the watch in a location where it is exposed to light will help power to recover sooner.
Charging Times

Exposure Level (Brightness)| Daily Operation 1| Level Change 2
---|---|---
Level 3| Level 2| Level 1
|
Outdoor sunlight (50,000 lux)| 8 minutes| 2 hours| 23 hours
Window sunlight (10,000 lux)| 30 minutes| 6 hours| 86 hours
Window sunlight on cloudy day (5,000 lux)| 48 minutes| 9 hours| 139 hours
Indoor fluorescent lighting (500 lux)| 8 hours| 94 hours| – – –

• 1 Approximate exposure each day t o generate power for normal daily operation.

• 2 Approximate exposure t o take power up one level.

  • The above times are for reference only. Actual times depend on lighting conditions.
  • For details about the operating time and daily operating conditions, see the “Power Supply” section of the Specifications (page E-55).

Power Saving
Power Saving enters a sleep state automatically whenever the watch is left for a certain period in an area where it is dark. The table below shows how watch functions are affected by Power Saving.

• Internal timekeeping maintained

To recover from the sleep state
Move the watch to a well-lit area o r press any button.

Radio Controlled Atomic Timekeeping

This watch receives a time calibration signal and updates its time setting accordingly. However, when using the watch outside of areas covered by time calibration signals, you will have to adjust the settings manually as required. See “Configuring Current Time and Date Settings Manually” (page E-28) for more information.
This section explains how the watch updates its time settings when the city code selected as the Home City is in Japan, North America, Europe, or China, and is one that supports time calibration signal reception.

If your Home City Code setting is this:| The watch can receive the signal from the transmitter located here:
---|---
LONDON (LON), PARIS (PAR), ATHENS (ATH)| Anthorn (England), Mainflingen (Germany)
HONG KONG (HKG)| Shangqiu City (China)
TOKYO (TYO)| Fukushima (Japan), Fukuoka/Saga (Japan)
NEW YORK (NYC), CHICAGO (CHI), DENVER (DEN), LOS ANGELES (LAX), ANCHORAGE (ANC), HONOLULU (HNL)| Fort Collins, Colorado (United States)

Approximate Reception Ranges
Japan (JJY)
The Japan time signal radio stations are located on Mt. Otakadoya in Fukushima and Mt. Hagane in Fukuoka/Saga.
The reception range of the Japanese time signals is approximately 1,000 km from each transmission station.
China (BPC)
The China time signal radio station is located in Shangqiu, Henan Province, China.
The reception range of the Chinese time signal is approximately 1,500 km from the transmission station.

Adjusting the Hand and Day Home Positions

If the watch is exposed to strong magnetism or impact, it can cause its hands and/or the date to go out of alignment. This can result in incorrect date and/or time indication even though a time calibration signal is being received.
The watch automatically adjusts the [2] Second Hand, [3] Minute Hand, and [1] Hour Hand positions periodically. You also can trigger hand position adjustment manually, if you want.

• The [4] Hour Hand (24-hour) is adjusted simultaneously with the [1] Hour Hand.

If you notice that the [5] Small Minute Hand, [6] Small Hour Hand, [7] Small Hour Hand (24-hour), [8] Lower Dial Hand, or [8] Day Indicator are not in the correct position, perform manual adjustment.

• The HZ] Small Hour Hand (24-hour) is adjusted simultaneously with the [6] Small Hour Hand.

Hand/Day Adjustment Steps
For full details, see the procedure from page E-47 to E-48.

• After completing adjustment, push the crown back in. Pushing the crown back in part way through adjustment will return t o the mode you started from with any adjustments you made in effect.

To adjust the hand and day home positions
Important!

• You do not need to perform the procedure in this section if the watch is indicating the time and/or day correctly.

1. In any mode, pull the crown out to the second click.

2. Hold down (B) until the watch beeps and the [2] Second Hand moves to 12 o’clock. This takes about five seconds.
   • Release (B) when the [2] Second Hand gets to 12 o’clock. At this time the watch will start automatic adjustment of the 2] Second Hand, [3] Minute Hand, and [1] Hour Hand positions.
   • Adjustment is complete when the [2] Second Hand, [3] Minute Hand, and G1] Hour Hand move to 12 o’clock.

3. Press ©.
   • This will cause the 1] Hour Hand and [8] Day Indicator t o move.
   • Wait until the [9] Day Indicator stops at a position halfway between 31 and 1 .
   • If the [8] Day Indicator is not halfway between 31 and 1, rotate the contractility.
   • Rotating the crown causes the [1] Hour Hand to move in 12-hour increments, and the LB] Day Indicator to move in half-day increments.

4. Press ©.
   • Check if the [5] Small Minute Hand is stopped at 12 o’clock.
   • If the position of the [5] Small Minute Hand is not correct, rotate the crown to adjust it to 12 o’clock.

5. Press ©.
   • Check if the [6] Small Hour Hand is stopped at 12 o’clock.
   • If the position of the [6] Small Hour Hand is not correct, rotate the crown t o adjust it to 12 o’clock.
   • The [7] Small Hour Hand (24-hour) moves simultaneously with the [6] Small Hour Hand. |f the hands are not at 12 o’clock, advance the [6] Small Hour Hand until they do.

6. Press ©.
   • Check if the [8] Lower Dial Hand is stopped at 12 o’clock.
   • If the position of the [8] Lower Dial Hand is not correct, rotate the crown t o adjust it to 12 o’clock.

7. Push the crown back in.

This exits the adjustment mode and returns to normal timekeeping.
Important!

• Leaving the crown pulled out for more than approximately 30 minutes without performing any operation will automatically cause the adjustment operation to become disabled. If this happens, push the crown back in and then pull it out to restart the above procedure from the beginning.
• Pushing the crown in will return to the mode you started from in step 1 with the hands and/or day in their newly adjusted positions.

Troubleshooting

Hand Movement and Position

• I lost track o f what mode the watch is in.
  Refer to “Mode Reference Guide” (page E-21). To return directly to the Dual Time Mode, hold down © for at least two seconds.

• The [2] Second Hand is moving at two-second intervals.

• All the watch’s hands are stopped at 12 o’clock and none o f the buttons work ([2] Second Hand stopped at 57, 58, 59, or 00).
  Power may be low. Expose the watch to light until the [2] Second Hand starts moving normally, at one- second intervals (page E-11).

• The hands o f the watch suddenly start moving at high speed, even when 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 (page E-13).
  • The time setting is being adjusted following a successful auto time calibration signal receive operation (page E-14).

• Hands suddenly stop moving. Button operation also is disabled.
  The watch may be in the power recovery mode (page E-12). Do not perform any operation until the hands return to their normal positions. The hands should return to their correct positions when normal operation returns. To help power recover, leave the watch in a location where it is exposed to light.

• 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 (page E – 2 4 ).

• The current time setting is off by one hour.
  e If you are using the watch i n an area where time calibration signal reception is possible, see “To configure Home City settings” (page E-24).
  e The period when summer time is applied in the location where you are using the watch may be different from the period set for your currently selected Home City. Use the procedure under “To switch between standard time and summer time manually” (page E-27) t o switch from AT (AUTO) t o STD ( f o r standard time) or DST ( f o r summer time).

• 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 (page E-45).
  f Data indication is correct, but it is not in the middle of the day indicator.
  The [9] Day Indicator will change gradually between approximately 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. each day. If the date is misaligned during this period, it is only momentarily and does not indicate malfunction. I f you change your Home City setting while the current time in the new Home City is between approximately 10 p.m. and 2 a.m., the date may become misaligned momentarily.

Charging

• The watch does not resume operation after expose it to light.
  It can take quite a long time to charge the battery after the power level drops to Level 3 (page E-11). Continue exposing the watch to light until the [2] Second Hand starts moving normally (at one-second intervals).

• The [2] Second Hand starts to move at one-second intervals, but then suddenly returns to moving at two-second intervals.
  The watch probably is not sufficiently charged yet. Continue keeping it exposed to light.
