uThe watch operates while charging electricity by converting light received on the dial to electrical
energy. It cannot properly operate unless the remaining energy is sufficient. Place or store the
watch in a location receiving light etc., to sufficiently charge electricity.
•
When the watch is stopped or the second hand starts moving at 2-second intervals (for models
with a second hand,) charge the watch by exposing it to light.
• The time required for charging the watch varies depending on the calibres. Check the calibre of
your watch engraved on the back cover.
• It is recommended that the watch be charged for as long as the charging time "B" to assure
the stable movement of the watch.
vThe above table provides only a general guideline.
ENERGY DEPLETION FOREWARNING FUNCTION
vTO PREVENT THE ENERGY DEPLETION
●If your watch has a second hand, when the energy stored in the rechargeable
battery is reduced to an extremely low level, the second hand starts moving
at 2-second intervals instead of the normal 1-second intervals. (Some calibres
have no such function.) The watch remains accurate even while the second
hand is moving at 2-second intervals.
●In that case, recharge the watch as soon as possible by exposing it to light.
Otherwise, the watch may stop operating in about 3 days. (For recharging the
watch, see “HOW TO CHARGE AND START THE WATCH”)
•When wearing the watch, make sure that the watch is not covered by
clothing.
•When the watch is not in use, leave it in a bright place as long as possible.

NOTE ON POWER SUPPLY
l The battery used in this watch is a rechargeable battery, which is different
from ordinary silver oxide batteries. Unlike other disposable batteries such as
dry-cell batteries or button cells, this rechargeable battery can be used over
and over again by repeating the cycles of discharging and recharging.
l The capa c i t y or recharging ef ficiency of the rechargeable b a tter y may
gradually deteriorate for various reasons such as long-term use or usage
conditions. Worn or contaminated mechanical parts or degraded oils may
also shorten recharging cycles. If the efficiency of the rechargeable battery
decreases, it is necessary to have the watch repaired.
●Do not remove the rechargeable battery yourself. Replacement of the
rechargeable battery requires professional knowledge and skill. Please
ask a watch retailer for replacement of the rechargeable battery.
●Installation of an ordinary silver oxide battery can generate heat that can
cause bursting and ignition.
CAUTION
lTo unscrew the crown:
Turn the crown counterclockwise. (Then, pull it out for time/calendar setting)
lTo screw in the crown:
With the crown at the normal position, turn it clockwise while pressing it.
