6.2 Setting the time zone
Your Junghans multi-frequency radio-controlled solar-powered watch
is able to pick up the DCF77, JJY40, JJY60 and WWVB signals. Within the
transmitter coverage areas your watch will thus reliably display sum-
mer or winter time respectively (WWVB is an exception – see section
13).
If you travel to a country with a different time zone, you can adjust the
time then being displayed to the local time. You set the time zone by
pressing button T2. By holding down button T2, you can quickly scroll
through all known time zones. The hands run in parallel to your setting.
The date also gets automatically adjusted when you set the zone.
If you want to reset the time display to the original time, trigger a
transmitter call when within the time signal transmitter’s reception
range or press button T2 repeatedly until you have got back to the ori-
ginal time.
6.3 Quartz mode
In order to set the time manually, press both buttons for longer than 3
seconds (or until the indicator on the LC display goes out). After the
hands have reached the 12 o’clock position, press button T1. The watch
is now in quartz mode. Quartz mode is indicated by the display sho-
wing the year, e.g. [99]. Every time you press the T2 button the display
advances by one year. Holding down button T2 scrolls through the
years quickly.
Once you have entered the current year, confirm this with a brief press
of button T1. The LC display now switches to showing the month set-
ting [¡™]. This is again adjusted via the T2 button. Confirm again the
month you have set by briefly pressing button T1.
Perform the following settings using the procedure described above:
– Set the date – the LC display switches to [£¡] (or the final day in the
month)
– Set the hour – the LC display switches to [™£]
– Set the minutes – the LC display switches to [∞ª]
Note: So that the seconds are shown correctly, set the next full minute
and then confirm your entry when the seconds reach the 60th second.
After the minutes have been set and subsequently confirmed by pres-
sing button T1, the hands of the multi-frequency radio-controlled solar-
powered watch move to the programmed time. The LC display shows
the date. The programmed time can be corrected by holding down but-
ton T2 for longer than 3 seconds.
Please note: The manual setting procedure must be fully completed
before the watch is ready for further operation.
In quartz mode the watch does not perform any automatic attempt to
pick up a time signal. A manual transmitter call can be made at any
time. A successful transmitter call will overwrite the time set manual-
ly and the watch then performs automatic time synchronisation again.
