KHS SHOOTER Page 1

Congratulations

We would like to congratulate you on having purchased this KHS SHOOTER, which is a very

high-quality watch, with Swiss Made Movement. This KHS SHOOTER oﬀers you high-calibre

precision with highest-quality materials and components as well as ruggedness against

shocks, variations in temperatures, water and dust.

The KHS SHOOTER performs the following functions:

•Analog Time Indication

•Centre Second (red)

•Calendar Indication

•H3 Illumination System with 16 Trigalights, Color-System HI-CON

To ensure that your KHS SHOOTER operates with perfect precision for many years to come,

we advise you to pay very careful attention to the advice provided in this user's manual.

Please read the instructions pertaining specically to your KHS SHOOTER on the following

pages.

GTLS – Gaseous Tritium Light Sources | Triglights

This KHS SHOOTER is equipped with the best GTLS currently available on the market and

which are made by the Swiss rm mb-microtec. GTLS are minute, hermetically sealed

glass vials that have a uorescent coating on the inside. They contain a small amount of

gaseous tritium. The electrons emitted by the tritium gas permanently excite the

uorescent coating.

GTLS which come from the market leader mb-microtec have a longevity of 20 years or more.

Although the initial brightness of the light sources is aﬀected by a variety of factors, a certain

decrease in brightness is unavoidable over time, however. The so-called half-life of tritium is

somewhat more than 12 years. After this period elapses, the brightness is noticeably less, but

substantially higher than that of conventionally illuminated watches.

GTLS and all other electronic watch components must always disposed of within the

framework of existing legislation. If you want disposed of your KHS SHOOTER, please

contact your authorised KHS dealer or your relevant KHS Service Center.

Battery

This KHS SHOOTER 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 SHOOTER, 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.

Watertightness

Your KHS SHOOTER is watertight up to 20 Bar. For that reason, your watch is suited, of course,

for swimming, bathing, car washing, to scrub up or any other normal contact with water.

To make sure that your KHS SHOOTER 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 SHOOTER to come in contact with chemicals. In order to ensure that

your watch remains fully functional for a long time, you should protect your watch from

extreme temperatures and vibrations.

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.

Screwed Crown

To ensure maximum water tightness, this KHS MISSIONTIMER 3 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 crown:

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!

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 watch components do not

belong in normal household waste and, thus, must always

disposed of within the framework of existing legislation. If

you want disposed of your KHS SHOOTER, please contact your

KHS authorised dealer or your relevant KHS Service Center.

Countdown bezel

The KHS SHOOTER is presented for the rst time with a so-called countdown bezel. The

countdown bezel is not like a traditional diving bezel with the printed minute scale. It acts as

a countdown timer. It uniquely measures not from a starting point, but to a destination point!

After the bezel is adjusted there is no need to permanently account and recalculate for the

remaining time.



A wearer of the KHS SHOOTER , can immediately see the time remaining on the countdown

bezel - without the hassle of recalculating.



EXAMPLE: The user begins their mission at x:56 clock, the user sets the index point of the

countdown bezel on the grid at "56 minutes". After this, the setting basically loses its meaning

because you now just have to pay attention to how many minutes still remain. These

remaining minutes can be easily read from the countdown bezel.

This feature is also useful in "normal" life, you can use the countdown bezel as a reminder for

parking time or for the cooking of pizza, pasta or eggs.
