Rorschach has a sleep mode which will cause the display to
freeze into a cryptic pattern at a set time.
Sleep mode will use very little battery power & you can extend
battery life by several months by using this mode for times
where you are asleep or not using the watch.
For example, you may wish to set sleep mode between 1AM &
7AM when you are usually sleeping.
At any time during sleep mode you can press any button to
exit sleep mode for 5 mins.
The default setting for the watch is sleep mode OFF.

Note: If you wish to turn OFF sleep mode completely, set the
start & end time the same - EG: Start 12am, End 12am
Sleep mode will display a different pattern on each day of the
week. The patterns are specifically designed so they cannot be
confused with the regular time display.
For maximum battery saving you may set [START 10am],
[END 9am], so Rorschach will be in sleep mode for 23hrs/
day. You will always be required to press a button to see the
time in this case, but the battery life may be extended to about
2-3 years.

5. User information
Rorschach is covered by a 1 year warranty. This warranty
does not cover water damage, accidental damage, neglect
or unauthorized repair.
II. Warranty
Rorschach uses a CR2016 replaceable watch battery.
The battery should last at least 1 year. By using
Rorschach’s ‘Sleep mode’ function you can extend
battery life by several more months.
Rorschach is water resistant to 3ATM.
3ATM means suitable for everyday use to resist splashes
of water & rain. 3ATM does not cover swimming, diving
or other water related activities.
The Eink™ display in Rorschach will refresh every minute as the time
updates. You will see the display change from black to white very
quickly before showing the new time. This is normal.
During setting mode the full screen refresh is disabled to allow you to
set the watch quickly. You may notice some ‘ghosting’ on the display
while in setting mode. This is also normal for this technology.

SPECIFICATIONS
The “Rorschach ink-blot test” (pronounced ‘roar-shack’ in
English) was invented in 1921 by Swiss psychologist Hermann
Rorschach. It is a psychological test, where a persons response
to a series ink-blot patterns, can be used to examine their
personality or emotional state.
