Hand Movement and Indications
Q1I don’t know what mode the watch is in.
Hold down (C) for at least four seconds to return to the Timekeeping Mode.
Q2All hands are stopped and buttons do not work.
The battery is dead. Keep the watch exposed to light until the battery recharges sufficiently.
Q3The hands suddenly start moving at high speed.
This is due to one of the reasons below, and does not indicate malfunction. Simply wait until normal hand movement resumes.
The watch is recovering from a power saving state.
Q4Hands are stopped and buttons do not work.
The watch is in the charge recovery mode. Wait until the recovery process is complete (for about 15 minutes). The watch will recover more quickly if you place it in a brightly lit location.
Q5The current time displayed by the watch is off by a few hours.
The city (time zone) setting is not correct. Select the correct setting.
Q6The current time indicated by the watch is off by one hour or 30 minutes.
The summer time setting is not correct. Select the correct setting.
Q7The time indicated by the hands is different from the digital time.
Strong magnetism or impact may cause the hands of the watch to go out of alignment. Correct hand position alignment.
World Time
Q1The time for a World Time City is not correct.
The summer time setting (standard time/summer time) is wrong.
Alarms
Q1The alarm does not sound.
Is the alarm setting turned on? If it isn’t, turn it on so it will sound.
Charging
Q1The watch does not work even though it is exposed to light.
The watch stops operating whenever the battery goes dead. Keep the watch exposed to light until it recharges sufficiently.
Q2[H], [M], and [L] are flashing on the display.
The watch is in the charge recovery mode. Wait until the recovery process is complete (about 15 minutes). The watch will recover more quickly if you place it in a brightly lit location.
If an alarm, hourly time signal, illumination and/or other power-intensive functions are used within a short period of time, the charging capacity of the battery will drop and cause the watch to go into a charge recovery mode. Function availability will be temporarily limited, but functionality will return after the battery recovers.
Q3[CHG] is flashing on the display.
The charge level of the watch is extremely low. Immediately expose the watch to light to charge it.
