Signal Reception Precautions
●
When the watch is unable to adjust its time
in accordance with a calibration signal for
some reason, average timekeeping
accuracy is within ±15 seconds per month.
●
Note that an internal decoding process the
watch performs after it receives a signal may
cause the time setting to be slightly off (by
less than one second).
●
Time signal reception is not possible when
any one of the conditions below exists.
—
While battery power is low
—
While the watch is in the Stopwatch
Mode, Timer Mode, or Alarm Mode
—
In Power Saving Level 2
—
Timer countdown operation in progress
—
While auto time adjustment is disabled
●
If the receive operation is successful, the
time and day settings will be adjusted
automatically in accordance with the Home
City and summer time settings. Summer
time will not be applied correctly in the cases
described below.

When the summer time start date and
time, end date and time, or other rules are

●

summer time. If China starts to observe
summer time in the future, the time
displayed by the watch for China may not be
correct.
