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), Mainfl ingen (Germany)

HONG KONG (HKG) Shangqiu City (China)

TOKYO (TYO) Fukushima (Japan), Fukuoka/Saga (Japan)

HONOLULU (HNL), ANCHORAGE (ANC),

LOS ANGELES (LAX), DENVER (DEN),

CHICAGO (CHI), NEW YORK (NYC)

Fort Collins, Colorado (United States)

Important!

x The areas covered by HONOLULU (HNL) and ANCHORAGE (ANC) are quite far

from the calibration signal transmitters, so certain conditions may cause reception

problems.

x When HONOLULU (HNL) or HONG KONG (HKG) is selected as the Home City,

only the time and date are adjusted according to the time calibration signal. You

need to switch manually between standard time and daylight saving time (DST) if

required. See “To toggle the Home City time between standard time and daylight

saving time” (page E-34) for information about how to do this.

E-16

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 “Confi guring Current

Time and Date Settings Manually” (page E-36) 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.

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.

x There actually are two sleep state levels: “second hand sleep” and “function sleep”.

Elapsed Time in Dark Operation

x All functions, including analog timekeeping, disabled

x Internal timekeeping maintained

x The watch will not enter a sleep state between 6:00 a.m. and 9:59 p.m. If the watch

is already in a sleep state when 6:00 a.m. arrives, however, it will remain in the

sleep state.

x The watch will not enter a sleep state while it is in the Stopwatch Mode.

x When power drops to Level 3, all functions will be disabled but the watch will

continue to keep time internally for about one week. If you recharge the battery

suffi ciently during this period, the analog hands will move automatically to the

correct setting and regular timekeeping will resume. After one week, all settings

(including timekeeping) will be cleared. Recharging the battery will reset all settings

to their initial factory defaults.

Power Levels

You can get an idea of the watch’s power level by

observing the movement of the

x

Second Hand in the

Timekeeping Mode.

x If the

x

Second Hand is moving normally in one-

second intervals, power is at Level 1.

x If the

x

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.

Moves at two-second

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.

x On the dashboard of a car parked in direct sunlight

x Too close to an incandescent lamp

x Under direct sunlight

Important!

x 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.

x 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.
