.Manual Signal Reception
Your Atomic Watch is programmed to receive the signal at 3AM each morning automatically. If you want to
manually receive the signal please follow the instructions below….
1. Hold S1 for about 6 seconds until the second-hand stops. This shows that the watch is in the “Manual Signal
Reception Mode”.
2. As your watch is attempting to pick up the radio signal it will take about 4 to 20 minutes to complete this
process.
3. After receiving the radio signal the second hand will run fast. After completion the current time will be
displayed when the second hand stops running. DO NOT push any button before the watch runs regularly.
The signal is always better during the nighttime but not during the daytime. So if your watch cannot receive the
signal during the daytime, just leave it nearby a window with facedown position and check it again the next
morning.
AM/PM Status Check:
You can check the setting for AM or PM of your watch as follows:
1. While the watch is in the time keeping mode, hold the S3 button no more than 3 seconds until the second
hand comes to a stop.
2. When the second hand stops at 9 o’clock this represents the AM time.
3. When the second hand stops at 3 o’clock this represents the PM time.
DO NOT push any button after the second hand has stopped. Wait until your watch runs again.

.TROUBLESHOOTING
If the Watch is Not Receiving the Time Signal
Reason for not being able to receive the Time Signal include:
-Watch is not placed nearby a window in order to receive the signal
-Being outside of USA, UK, Germany and Japan
-Incorrectly positioning your watch during signal reception. Go to “Watch Position for Radio Signal
Reception” for details
-Being inside a Building Area
-Around Metal Objects blocking the Radio Signal
-Interference caused by being near a computer monitor or T.V.
Ensure that your watch is left by a window with the position described in accordance to the “Watch Position for
Radio Signal Reception”. You may have to try different windows in the house to see which one is the best. You
can test this using the Reception Status Test described earlier. Please note that reception is always better at
night. If your watch is unable to make contact with the radio signal, it will continue to function in the same way
as a standard watch. The time will then be corrected the next time your watch receives the time signal.
Second Hand Running Non-Stop
When battery is low, the Second Hand may start to run fast. If this happens then change the battery of the watch
after it stops.
Time is Wrong
If your Time Zone setting is incorrect, your watch will show you the wrong time. You need to manually set it to
the right Time Zone. Go to “Time Zone Setting” for details.
BATTERY CHANGE:
Your watch uses a CR1620 type battery; You should find a trained jeweler or watch specialists to change the
replacement battery to avoid any damage to the watch.
1. Open the watch at the back. Carefully remove the bottom, make sure you do not lose the waterproof seal.
2. Pick up the battery spring carefully.
3. Take out the battery and insert a new one (watch the polarity!”+”up).
4. Now push the battery spring down.
5. Before you put the case-back on again, make sure the waterproof seal is correctly in place.
