Junghans J615.84 - Manual Time Synchronisation (Transmitter Calls)

6.1 Manual time synchronisation (transmitter calls)
To perform manual time synchronisation, called making a ‘transmitter
call’, press button T1 for longer than 3 seconds. The second hand begins
to move and positions itself at 12 o’clock. Minute and hour hands
remain at the time last displayed. The signal reception phase starts
as soon as the indicator on the LC display goes out. While the signal is
being received, please keep your watch still or put it down.
If synchronisation is not possible with the time signal transmitter
shown, all other transmitters get checked for possible reception of the
time signal. As soon as the time signal has been picked up, the hands
automatically move to the time signal transmitter’s local time and the
date gets shown on the LC display. By pressing button T1 you can see
which transmitter has been picked up. Should you be in a time zone
dierent to that of the time signal transmitter that the watch picked
up, you will need to set the applicable local time for that location (see
section 6.2) once synchronisation has been successfully completed.
The time zones displayed when picking up the signal from the respec-
tive transmitters are as follows:
Transmitter Time transmitted
EU DCF77 (Europe) CET or CEST
JP JJY40 (Japan) Japanese local time
JP. JJY60 (Japan) Japanese local time
US WWVB (North America) Pacic Standard Time
If you wish, you can interrupt the manual time synchronisation pro-
cess, as soon as the second hand has moved to the 12 o’clock position.
To do so, briey press button T1 or T2. The second hand resets itself to
the original time. Please note that manual time synchronisation is not
possible if the [Lo] symbol is being shown on the LC display.
