• ALLERGIC REACTION
Because the case and band touch the skin di-
rectly, it is important to clean them regularly. If
not, shirt sleeves may be stained and those with
delicate 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
Your watch will be adversely affected by strong
magnetism. Keep it away from close contact with
magnetic objects.
• SHOCKS AND VIBRATIONS
Your watch may be worn for normal sports activi-
ties, but be careful not to drop it or hit it on hard
surfaces.
• TEMPERATURE
Your watch is preadjusted so that constant accu-
racy may be insured at normal temperature.
• CLEANING
Use only a soft cloth and clean water for cleaning
your watch. Never use chemicals, as the water-
proof gasket will corrode.

■CARE OF YOUR LORUS WATCH
■SERVICE
When your LORUS watch requires repair or servic-
ing, please see the enclosed WARRANTY/GUAR-
ANTEE.
■HOW TO USE EL BACKLIGHT
Note:
1. The backlight of the watch employs an elec-
tro-luminescent (EL) light, which tends to lose
illuminating power after very long use.
2. The illumination provided by backlight may be
hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.
* When the illuminating light becomes dim, re-
place the batteries with new ones.
■BATTERY CHANGE
1. The miniature battery SEIKO CR2016, Maxell
CR2016 or SONY CR2016, which powers your
watch, should last approximately 2 years. How-
ever, because it is inserted at the factory, the
actual life of the battery once in your posses-
sion may be less than 2 years.
2. Be sure to replace the battery to prevent any
possible malfunction as soon as it runs down.
3. To replace the battery we recommend taking
the watch to a local watch repair shop.
Note:
If the alarm is used for more than 20 seconds a
day and/or the illuminating light for more than
8 seconds a day, the battery life may be less
than the specified period.
