Screwed Crown

To ensure maximum water tightness, this KHS AIRLEADER watch is designed with a screwed

crown. The crown must be screwed out in order to set the time or date and then screwed

back in.

Unscrewing the crown:

Turn the crown counterclockwise, until

you can feel that it is unscrewed. The

crown is now in the neutral position

and can be pulled out to set the time

and/or date.

1) Starting position ,

screwed on tightly, not pulled out.

2) Neutral positon,

unscrewed , not pulled out.

Closing the cro n:

Push the crown back to the neutral

position. Now turn the crown clockwise

while applying a little pressure, until it

is screwed tight.

1) Neutral positon,

unscrewed , not pulled out.

2) Starting position ,

screwed on tightly, not pulled out.

IMPORTANT: After every time you change the time or date, make sure that the crown is

screwed back in to ensure that the watch remains watertight. Under no circumstances

should you ever use force or tools to unscrew the crown or screw it back in place!

Watertightness

Your KHS AIRLEADER is watertight up to 10 ATM. For that reason, your watch is suited, of

course, for swimming, bathing, car washing, hand washing or any other contact with water,

but the watch is not suited for diving.

To make sure that your KHS AIRLEADER remains watertight, we recommend you to take it to

an authorised KHS dealer to have them check all the seals and the crystal periodically.

We also advise you to have the battery replaced every 2 years (e.g. directly with the battery

replacement recommended by us).

Do NOT allow your KHS AIRLEADER to come in contact with chemicals. In order to ensure

that your watch remains fully functional

IMPORTANT: Make sure that the crown is pushed in to the case before allowing your watch

to come in contact with water. The crown may not be actuated, when the watch is immersed

in water or still wet. After use in saltwater, you should rinse your watch thoroughly using

freshwater and then allow it to dry completely.

Battery | Continuation

CAUTION: Do not take the battery out of your watch on your own. If it should be necessary

to remove the battery, however, make sure that it is out of reach of children. Seek medical

attention immediately, if the battery is swallowed. Never short circuit, open or expose the

battery to heat or throw into re, since it would otherwise explode, overheat or cause a re.

PLEASE NOTE: The battery cannot be recharged. Attempting to recharge it may result in

battery acid leaking or damage to the battery.

Batteries and all other electronic atch components do not

belong in normal household aste and, thus, must al ays

disposed of ithin the frame ork of existing legislation. If

you ant disposed of your KHS AIRLEADER, please contact your

KHS authorised dealer or your relevant KHS Service Center.

Battery

This KHS AIRLEADER possesses a high quality Swiss quartz movement that is battery

powered such that winding is not necessary. According to the movement's manufacturer,

the battery should last 60 months with a rate variation of just approx. ±0.66 seconds a day.

You only have to set the time and date.

Since the battery is installed by the manufacture to check the functionality of the movement,

its expected useful life may be less than cited due to time in storage. If the battery is dis

charged, it should always be replaced as soon as possible in order to prevent any possible

battery leakage. We recommend that you have the battery replaced by an authorised

KHS dealer.

IMPORTANT: Even though the manufacture of the movement cites a service life of up to 36

months for the quartz movement installed in this KHS AIRLEADER, we would advise you to

have the battery replaced every 24 months or 2 years at least! Doing so ensures that there is

no possible battery leakage, which could result in repairing or replacing the entire watch

movement.
