Why won't my Seiko Watch resume normal movement after charging?

Why did the stopped second hand pointing to the 15-second position on my Seiko 8B92 start operating?
The power save function has been activated because the watch was not exposed to enough light for a certain period, which limits energy consumption. When taking off the watch, place it in as bright a location as possible.

Why is my Seiko Watch unable to receive a radio signal?
Your Seiko Watch may not be receiving a radio signal for several reasons: The watch may have been moved during reception (it takes up to 12 minutes). The watch might be in a location with a weak signal. Transmitting stations could be temporarily offline. The stopwatch second and minute hands may not be reset. Or, the time zone might be set incorrectly. Try these solutions: Keep the watch still for 12 minutes while receiving a signal. Move to a location with a stronger signal. Check the transmitting station's website. Reset the stopwatch hands. Ensure the correct time zone is selected.
