■LUMIBRITE WATCH
(dial, hands, buttons, case, bezel,
strap, etc.)
✥If your watch is a LORUS LUMIBRITE watch, it has
following features.
LORUS LUMIBRITE watches absorb and store light
energy from natural and artificial light sources and emit
light in the dark. They are made of environmentally
friendly material, and therefore, are harmless to human
beings and the environment.
• With a full charge, LORUS LUMIBRITE watches
glow in the dark hours longer than conventional
luminous watches of this type. If exposed to a light
of more than 500 lux (i.e., the brightness of a typical
office) for approximately 10 minutes, or direct
sunlight for 2 minutes, they will glow for hours.
• Since LORUS LUMIBRITE watches emit the light
they store, the brightness will decrease gradually
over time. The length of time they will glow may
also differ slightly depending on such factors as the
brightnessof and distancefromthelightsourceused
to charge the watch.

Do not expose the old battery to fire or recharge
it. Keep it out of the reach of children. If a child
swallows it, immediately consult a doctor.
CAUTION
• WATER RESISTANCE
If your watch is 200 M/20 BAR, 100 M/10 BAR or 50
M/5 BAR water resistant, it is so indicated on the dial/
case back.
• Do not operate the buttons when the watch is wet.
• If the watch is exposed to salt water, rinse it in fresh
water and then wipe it thoroughly dry.
• Should you find any water or condensation inside
the watch, immediately have it checked. Water can
corrode electric parts inside the case.

•ALLERGIC REACTION
Because the case and band touch the skin directly, it is
important to clean them regularly. If not, shirt sleeves
maybe stained and those withdelicate skin may develop
a rash. Please wear the watch with some play to avoid
any possible allergic reaction. If you develop a rash on
your wrist, stop wearing and consult a physician.
•MAGNETISM/ STATIC ELECTRICITY
■BATTERY CHANGE
The miniature lithium battery Maxell battery
CR2032,which powers your watch, should last
approximately 2 years. However, because it is inserted
at the factory, the actual life of the battery once in your
possession may be less than 2 years. Be sure to replace
the battery to prevent any possible malfunction as soon
as it runs down. To replace the battery, we recommend
taking the watch to a local watch repair shop.
■CARE OF YOUR LORUS WATCH
This watch contains precise electronic components.
Neverattempttoopenthecaseorremovethebackcover.
• BATTERY

Your watch will not be affected by magnetism generated
by household electric appliances but keep your watch
away from a place where the watch is subject to strong
electric field and static electricity.
•SHOCKS AND VIBRATIONS
Your watch may be worn for normal sports activities,
However, be careful not to drop it or hit it against hard
surfaces as it may cause damage.
