General Reference for Receiving Areas
This watch is provided with an automatic tuning feature that automatically selects the
station to be used for reception of standard time radio waves. A general reference for the
areas where the watch can receive standard time radio waves is as follows. However,
reception status in these areas may vary due to the times of sunrise and sunset, seasonal
changes, weather conditions (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 in the map.
<Radio wave transmitter station >
• Mt. Ohtakadoya standard radio wave transmitter station (Fukushima Station)
• Mt. Hagane standard radio wave transmitter station (Kyushu Station)
In Japan, standard time radio waves are broadcast continually, 24-hours a day, but may
occasionally be interrupted for maintenance purposes. To confirm standard time radio
wave transmission status, refer to the Japan Standard Time (JST) Project, on the website
of the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology
(http//jjy.nict.go.jp/).
The standard time radio wave has no effect on the human body or medical equipment.
