Please fully charge your watch before use by exposing it to

light.

When the watch does not operate according to the instruction manual, this means that it is

insufficiently charged. When this happens, charge the watch before using by exposing to

direct sunlight for at least 2 hours.

[This watch is equipped with a power save function (Power Save 1 and 2) that reduces

power consumption]

Power Save 1: When the solar cell is not being exposed to light for more than 24 hours

continuously, the second hand and the minute hand stop and the power

save state is entered.

Power Save 2: The Power Save 1 state will continue for about 2 days after which the

Power Save 2 state is entered.

* Upon entering the power save state, the second hand stops at the 12 o’clock position while

the minute hand stops at the reference position. For details concerning the power save func-

tion, please read [6. A. Power Save Function].

This watch is a radio wave watch that automatically corrects the time and date by

receiving the standard time radio wave (time information) transmitted in Germany.

In addition, this watch also functions as an analog solar-powered watch equipped

with a photoelectric power generation function that drives the watch by converting

light energy into electrical energy. It is also equipped with other useful functions,

including a power save function that reduces power consumption of the watch when

the solar cell is not exposed to light.

* Locations Where Radio Wave Reception may be Difficult

• It may be difficult to receive radio waves in certain locations. The time and

date are not set correctly if radio waves are unable to be received.

• There rarely may be times when the time and date are not set correctly even if

radio waves are received.

When this happens, carefully read the section on page 8 entitled, “Radio Wave

Receiving Function” and then try repeating the procedure for receiving radio

waves (either manually or automatically).

1. Before Using

A. Radio Wave Receiving Function

· This watch incorporates an antenna for receiving radio waves at the 12:00 posi-

tion inside the case. For good reception, it is ideal to have the 12:00 position of

the watch facing in the direction of the radio wave transmitter station.

· Try receiving radio waves using the reception level function while changing the

orientation of the watch or location. Finding the location and direction at which

radio waves can be received easily results in more reliable reception.

· To obtain stable reception, do not move the watch during reception.

· Radio waves may be hard to receive due to blockage by a metallic object or the

environment. When inside a building and so on, reception should be performed

as close to a window as possible.

Radio waves may be unable to be received in close proximity to the radio wave

transmitter station (within a distance of about 10 km). In addition, radio waves

may not be received properly even if they are able to be received. If this happens,

either change the orientation of the watch antenna to 45 degrees to 90 degrees rel-

ative to the radio wave transmitter station or move to a location farther away from

the radio wave transmitter station (more than about 10 km away), and then try

receiving radio waves again.

Antenna

10 11

It may not be possible to properly receive radio waves at the following locations

susceptible to generation of radio wave noise or under the following environment

conditions that cause difficulty in receiving radio waves.

(1) Locations subject to extremely high or low temperatures

(2) Inside a reinforced concrete building, between tall buildings or in valleys

between mountains or underground

(3) In a car, train or airplane

(4) Near high-tension wires (power lines), railroad overhead wires or airports (com-

munication facilities)

(5) Near a cellular telephone in use

(6) Near household electric appliances or OA equipment such as TV sets, refrigera-

tors, personal computers, fax machines, etc.

* Radio waves cannot be received properly while walking or traveling in a motor

vehicle, etc.

A general reference for the areas where the watch can receive standard time radio

waves is as follows. However, these areas may vary depending on the time zone,

seasonal variations and weather (presence of lightning, etc.). Since this map only

provides a general reference of the standard receiving areas, it may not apply in

some particular locations even within the range shown on the map.

B. Photoelectric Power Generation Function

This watch uses a secondary battery to store electrical energy. Once fully charged,

the watch will continue to keep the correct time for about 8 years (in the Power

Save 2 state) without further charging. Furthermore, it will continue to keep the cor-

rect time for about 9 months when the Power Save modes are not activated.

Power Save: When power generation stops as a result of the solar cell not being

expose to light, the power save function is activated to reduce the

power consumption of the watch. (For more details, please refer to

section 6-A entitled, “Power Save Function”.)

In order to use this watch comfortably, try to keep the watch charged at all times.

There is no risk of overcharging no matter how often the watch is charged (over-

charging protection function).

Expose the dial (solar cell) to light when charging.

· If you wear long sleeves, the fabric may cover the watch and prevent it from being

exposed to light resulting in the watch becoming insufficiently charged.

· When the watch is removed, try to place it in as bright a location as possible. This

will enable the watch to continue to run properly at all times.

2. Receiving Radio Waves

There are two ways to receive radio waves, namely automatic reception (regular

automatic reception, return automatic reception and recovery automatic reception)

and free reception. When radio waves are received properly, the time (hours, min-

utes, seconds, daylight savings time) and date (month, day, year) are corrected auto-

matically.

1. Regular Automatic Reception: Radio waves are received automatically twice a

day at 3:00 AM and 4:00 AM each day.

2. Free Reception: Radio waves can be received at any time.

3. Return Automatic Reception: Radio waves are received when the watch automat-

ically returns to the reception state after the Power

Save 2 state has been canceled.

1716

4. Recovery Automatic Reception: The watch switches to the recovery automatic

reception state and receives radio waves when

the watch is sufficiently charged after having

stopped due to being insufficiently charged.

[Data Received from German Standard Time Radio Wave]

· Time information: Hours, minutes, seconds, daylight savings time

· Date information: Month, day, year

3. Setting the Time and Date by Radio Wave

Reception

It is recommended to try receiving radio waves while changing the direction and

location of the watch to find the location and direction at which reception is easiest

while referring to the reception level. Do not move the watch when receiving radio

waves.

A. Radio Wave Reception (Regular Automatic Reception and

Free Reception)

(1) Reception

method

The second hand automatically

moves to the RX (reception in

progress) position (0 seconds

position) twice a day at 3:00

AM and 4:00 AM each day,

after which the watch begins to

receive radio waves.

When button (A) is pressed after about 2 seconds,

the second hand rapidly moves to the RX (reception

is progress) position (0 seconds position), after

which the watch begins to receive radio waves.

Note: If button (A) is continuously depressed for 10

seconds or more, the watch changes to the “Refer-

ence Position (0 position/12:00 position) Check”.

watch prior to reception.

When button (A) is pressed after receiving, the second hand rapidly moves to the

reception result (reception level) and stops.

· The watch automatically returns to the current time after 10 seconds. In addition, the

watch can also be returned to the current time by pressing button (A).

However, if button (A) is continuously depressed for 2 seconds or more, the second

hand moves to the RX position indicating that reception is in progress and free recep-

tion begins.

Note: Reception results cannot be confirmed even if button (A) is pressed while each

hand is returning to the current time following completion of reception. Con-

firm reception results by pressing button (A) only after each hand has returned to

the current time.

B. Indication of Reception Level during Radio Wave Reception

During radio wave reception, the second hand waits at the reception position corre-

sponding to the reception status and indicates the reception level (degree of ease of

radio wave reception).
