Radio-controlled Atomic Timekeeping Precautions
x GPS signal and time calibration signal reception will not be possible under the conditions described
below.
When watch battery power is low
While the watch is in the Airplane, Stopwatch, Timer, or Alarm Mode
When watch battery power is at Level 2
(GPS signal reception is not possible at Level 1.)
When the crown is pulled out
While a stopwatch or timer operation is in progress
When the temperature of the watch is less than approximately –10°C (14°F) or greater than
approximately 60°C (140°F)
x Strong electrostatic charge can result in the wrong time setting.
x The watch is designed to update the date and day of the week automatically for the period from
January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2099. Updating of the date by signal reception will no longer be
performed starting from January 1, 2100.
x After signal receive is successful, the time and date settings will be adjusted in accordance with the
applicable Home City (Time Zone) and summer time settings. Note, however, that summer time will not
be refl ected correctly in the cases described below.
When the start date and time, and end date and time regulations are changed
When position information cannot be obtained correctly
When position information can be obtained, but it is wrong because the watch is located near a time
zone boundary, etc.
x As of December 2013, China does not use Daylight Saving Time (DST). If China does go to the
Daylight Saving Time system in the future, some functions of this watch may no longer operate
correctly for the China time zones.
x If you are in an area where signal reception is not possible, the watch keeps time with the precision
noted in “Specifi cations” (page E-77).
