Notes on the time signal reception
Receiving the time signal
There are three ways to receive the time signal:
Methods Explanations
Automatic reception
Receives the signal at 2:00 a.m. every day. If reception is
unsuccessful, the watch tries to receive at 3:00 a.m. and 4:00
a.m.
On demand reception
Receive the signal manually when you want to adjust the
time and date. See page
22
.
Recovery automatic
reception
Receives the signal automatically after charging when the
watch stops due to insufficient charge.
The second hand indicates the reception result (OK/NO). (See page
9
.)
15
• The time signal reception function cannot be deactivated.
• Even when this watch receives a time signal successfully, the accuracy of the
displayed time will be dependent on the reception environment and internal
processing.
• If the watch is not able to receive the signal, it will operate normally within an
accuracy range of ±15 seconds per month.
When receiving the time signal
Remove the watch and place it on a stable surface
where it can receive the signal better, such as next
to a window.
• The reception antenna is located at the 9:00
position of the watch. Place the watch with the
9:00 position facing toward the station.
• Do not move the watch during time signal
reception.
• The watch will not receive a time signal when
in a low charge state as indicated by the second
hand moving in two second increments (the insufficient charge warning). Charge
the watch before reception.
16
Note on the time signal
This watch receives the time signal from the five signal stations located in four regions
and automatically adjusts the time and date. The receivable signal stations are listed as
follows:
Signal stations Kind of the time signal
Fukushima station, Japan
JJY
Kyushu station, Japan
Fort Collins station, Denver, Colorado, USA WWVB
Mainflingen station, Southeast Frankfurt, Germany DCF77
Shangqiu station, Henan, China BPC
Refer to the maps on pages
17
to
19
to see the locations of the signal stations and their
receivable area roughly.
17
Approximate receivable area
The distance of receivable range is only used as an approximate value. It is often
affected by the receiving environment and weather.
• The value of the distance is a radius of the value from the signal station.
JJY (Japan):
Approx. 2000 km
Kyushu station
JJY (Japan):
Approx. 1500 km
Fukushima station
Continued on the next page
18
WWVB (USA):
Approx. 3000 km
Fort Collins station
The distance of receivable range is only used as an approximate value. It is often
affected by the receiving environment and weather.
• The value of the distance is a radius of the value from the signal station.

DCF77 (Germany):
Approx. 1500 km
Mainflingen station
BPC (China):
Approx. 1500 km
Shangqiu station
The distance of receivable range is only used as an approximate value. It is often
affected by the receiving environment and weather.
• The value of the distance is a radius of the value from the signal station.
20
Poor reception areas
It may be difficult to receive the time signal properly under certain environmental
conditions or in areas susceptible to radio noise.
Extremely hot or cold locations
Inside vehicles
Near electrical equipment or office
appliances
Near high-tension electrical
lines, railway overhead wires or
communication facilities
Inside reinforced concrete
buildings, between tall buildings,
mountains, or underground
Near mobile phones that are in
use
21
When signal reception is poor
High-tension electrical lines or others structures near your house may block the path
to the signal location. This may cause a poor environment for receiving the time
signal.
With reference to pages
17
to
19
, search for a better place for reception.
Then, attempt to receive the time signal following the procedure on pages
22
and
23
.
22
On-demand reception—manual signal reception activation
You can adjust the watch by receiving the time signal any
time when the time and date are not correct or the reception
result is “NO.
• The watch will not start to receive if the second hand is
moving once every two seconds (this is the insufficient
charge warning). Fully charge the watch before
attempting on-demand reception.
• Not all areas can receive a signal. Be sure you are not in
such an area and confirm the city is selected for your
time zone. See pages
10
to
13

for this determination.
Some areas observe Daylight Saving Time.
• Daylight Saving Time rules will vary depending on the country or region within a
country.
Movement caliber H144
When the watch receives a time signal, the Daylight Saving Time setting is
automatically updated. The time signal update overrides any manual settings that
may have been made. If you live in an area that does not observe Daylight Saving
Time, you may need to use alternate city for correcting the time. See pages
10
to
13
.
Movement caliber H145
When the watch receives a time signal, the Daylight Saving Time setting is
automatically updated, provided the user has not manually turned OFF overridden
the Daylight Saving Time setting.
If you live in an area that does not receive a time signal, you will need to update the
Daylight Saving Time setting manually. See page

Special note about movement caliber H145
When manually changing the Daylight Saving Time from OFF to ON to OFF,
this engages the manual override built into movement caliber H145. This manual
override precludes Daylight Saving Time from being automatically adjusted during
the time signal update. If this function is not desired, the only way to cancel the
manual override is to do the reset and 0-Positioning outlined on page
46
.
27
<Cities sharing the Daylight Saving Time setting>
The Daylight Saving Time / standard time is shared and automatically updated among
the cities within each table below.
Areas receiving the
signal from USA
Anchorage (Anchorage/ANC), Los Angeles (L. Angeles/
LAX), Denver (Denver/DEN), Chicago (Chicago/CHI),
New York (New York/NYC)
Areas receiving the
signal from Germany
London (London/LON), Paris (Paris/PAR),
Athens (Athens/ATH), Moscow (Moscow/MOW),
Azores (Azores/PDL)
When changing to a city other than outlined in the chart above:
Movement caliber
H144
Time signal overrides any manual setting of the Daylight
Saving Time.
Movement caliber
H145
Daylight Saving Time is set in accordance with the last-
received time signal. However, when manual override has
been activated, the time signal will not update the time zone
with the manual Daylight Saving Time override.
• For how to check the movement number, see page
1
.
28
If you live in an area that does not observe Daylight Saving Time
<Movement caliber H144>
Anytime a time signal is received, any manual Daylight Saving Time is overridden and
set in accordance with the time in the time signal. If you live in an area that does not
observe Daylight Saving Time, it will be necessary for you to utilize an alternate time
zone to have the correct time shown (see pages
10
to
13
).
e.g. The current city setting is +2 hour time difference.
Select the city with +1 hour time difference.
Caution
You must change the city setting to the correct time zone city after the Daylight
Saving Time season has finished.
29
If you live in an area that does not observe Daylight Saving Time (continued)
<Movement caliber H145>
Movement caliber H145 will “remember” a manual Daylight Saving Time setting. As
such, if you manually turn the Daylight Saving Time to “OFF” for a particular time
zone, it stay “off” and not be affected by any time signal update. It is important to note
however that with the change of each Daylight Saving Time, you will need to manually
turn the setting ON or OFF as outlined on page
26
.
The only way to cancel any manual override setting is to do the reset and 0-positioning
procedure as outlined on page
46
.

Solar-powered watch handling precautions
<Always be Sure to Expose Your Watch to Light Regularly>
Your watch enjoys regular exposure to light. Wearing in situations that prevent light exposure such
as long shirt or coat sleeves will prevent your watch from receiving light sufficient for charging. In
these instances, supplemental charging may be needed.
When you take your watch off, try and place it in a bright location. This will ensure your watch
receives light for charging and will continue to operate properly. Storing your watch in dark places
for extended periods of time may cause the stored energy to become depleted and your watch to
stop.
49
CAUTION
Recharging Precautions
Do not charge your watch at high temperatures (60°C/140°F) as
this may cause damage to sensitive components and the watch to
malfunction.
Examples:
Charging the watch too close to a light source which generates
a large amount of heat such as an incandescent lamp or
halogen lamp.
* When charging your watch under an incandescent lamp,
be sure to leave 50 cm (19-11/16 inches) distance between
the lamp and the watch to avoid excessive heat. Never use a
halogen lamp for recharging as these generate excessive heat.
Charging the watch in a location where the temperature may become extremely high such as on
the dashboard of a vehicle.
50
<Replacement of Rechargeable Cell>
Your watch features a cell that does not need regular replacement.
However, after an extended period of time, power consumption may increase due to deterioration
of lubrication in the movement. This may result in shorter than expected run time. Be sure to have
your watch regularly inspected by an Authorized Service Center.
Note: Regular maintenance is not covered under the terms of the warranty.
WARNING
Handling of Rechargeable Cell
The rechargeable cell should never be removed from the watch.
If for any reason it becomes necessary to remove the rechargeable cell from the watch, keep out of
the reach of children to prevent accidental swallowing.
If the rechargeable cell is accidentally swallowed, consult a doctor immediately.
Do not dispose of the rechargeable cell with ordinary garbage. Please follow the instructions of
your municipality regarding collection of batteries to prevent the risk of fire or environmental
contamination.
51
WARNING
Use Only the Specified Rechargeable Cell
Never install a conventional battery in your watch. Only use the specified rechargeable cell.
Your watch is designed to operate only with the original type of rechargeable cell. It is not designed
to run or be used with a conventional type of battery. Installing such a battery may result in
overcharging which may cause the battery to burst. This can cause damage to the watch and injury
to the wearer.
If for any reason the rechargeable cell needs replacement, be sure to use only the original type
rechargeable cell. We recommend contacting your nearest Authorized Service Center for this
service.

Non-water resistant watches cannot be used underwater or in environments in contact with water.
Water-resistance for daily use (to 3 atmospheres) means that the watch may be worn while washing
your face or in the rain, but is not to be immersed in water.
Upgraded water-resistance for daily use (to 5 atmospheres) means that the watch may be worn
while swimming, but is not to worn while skin diving.
Upgraded water-resistance for daily use (to 10/20 atmospheres) means that the watch may be worn
while skin diving, but not while scuba or saturated diving using helium gas.
For a metallic, plastic or rubber watchband, wash any dirt off with water. Remove the small
amounts of dirt trapped between the crevices of the metallic band with a soft brush. If your watch
is not water resistant, be sure not to get the case of the watch wet.
55
Precautions and usage limitations
CAUTION
To Avoid Injury
Be particularly careful when wearing your watch while holding a small child, to avoid injury.
Be particularly careful when engaged in strenuous exercise or work, to avoid injury to yourself and
others.
DO NOT wear your watch while in a sauna, jacuzzi or other location where it may become
excessively hot. This may result in burns to the wearer and/or malfunction of your watch.
Be careful when putting on or taking off your watch since there is a risk of pinching your skin or
damaging your fingernails depending on the manner in which the band is fastened.
56
CAUTION
Precautions
Always wear your watch with the crown pushed in to the normal position. If your crown is a screw
down type, be sure it is properly screwed down (locked) to the case.
Do not operate the crown or any buttons when the watch is wet. This may allow the entrance of
moisture and cause damage to sensitive components.
If water enters the watch or the watch fogs up and does not clear up even after a long time, consult
Authorized Service Center for inspection and/or repair.
If a watch of upgraded water resistance for daily use is immersed in sea water or subjected to
excessive perspiration, thoroughly rinse with fresh water and wipe completely dry with a soft cloth.
If seawater enters the watch, place the watch in a box or plastic bag and immediately take it in for repair.
Otherwise, pressure inside the watch will increase, and parts (crystal, crown, buttons, etc.) may come off.
CAUTION
When Wearing Your Watch
<Band>
The durability of a leather, cloth, or natural skin strap may be affected by moisture and
perspiration. Moreover, wet leather may cause a rash. Be sure to keep your strap dry and clean.
It is recommended to take off the watch if it gets wet, even if the watch itself is water-resistant.
Do not wear your watch too tightly. Try to leave enough space between the watch and your skin to
allow adequate ventilation.
57
A rubber type strap may become stained by dyes or soils found in clothing and other accessories.
Since these stains may become permanent, take caution when wearing your watch with items that
may transfer color (articles of clothing, purses, dyed bracelets, etc.).
Solvents, moisture and perspiration may cause the strap to deteriorate. Be sure to replace a strap
that has become dried, brittle, or cracked to prevent loss due to strap failure.
<Temperature>
The watch may stop or the function of the watch may be impaired in extremely high or low
temperature. Do not use the watch in places where the temperature is outside the operating
temperature range as stated in the specifications.
<Static Electricity>
The integrated circuits (IC) used in quartz watches are sensitive to static electricity. Please note that
the watch may malfunction if exposed to intense static electricity.
<Magnetism>
Analog type quartz watches are powered by a motor that utilizes a small magnet. The operation
of this motor can be disturbed if the watch is subjected to magnetic items resulting in the
malfunction of the watch. Do not allow the watch to come into close proximity to magnetic items
such as “health” bracelets or necklaces, coin trays, latches found in cabinets and refrigerators,
certain clasps of handbags and cell phone pouches, cell phone speakers, certain sporting
accessories, MRI equipment, etc.
58
<Strong Shock>
Avoid dropping the watch or subjecting it to other strong impact. It may cause malfunctions and/
or performance deterioration as well as damage to the case and bracelet.
<Chemicals, Corrosive Gasses and Mercury>
If paint thinner, benzene or other solvents or products containing these solvents (including
gasoline, nail-polish remover, cresol, bathroom cleaners and adhesives, water repellent, etc.)
are allowed to come in contact with the watch, they may cause discoloration, deterioration and
damage materials of the watch. Be careful when handling these chemicals. Contact with mercury
such as that used in thermometers may also cause discoloration of the band and case.
CAUTION
Always Keep Your Watch Clean
Rotate the crown while it is pressed in fully and press the buttons periodically so they do not
become stuck due to accumulations of foreign matter.
Note: Do not operate the crown or any buttons when the watch is wet.
The case and band of the watch come into direct contact with the skin in the same manner as
undergarments. Corrosion of the metal or unnoticed soiling such as that caused by perspiration
and dirt can soil sleeves and other portions of clothing. Keep your watch clean at all times.
