• Your watch may differ somewhat from the one shown in the illustration.
Notes
• Some water resistant models are equipped with a screw lock
crown.
• With such models, you must unscrew the crown in the direction
noted in the illustration to loosen it before you can pull it out. Do not
pull too forcibly on such crowns.
• Also note that such watches are not water resistant while their
crowns are loosened. Be sure to screw the crowns back in as far as
they will go after making any setting.

Watch Features
Your watch is equipped with a low charge alert that lets you know when rechargeable
battery power is low. Even if the rechargeable battery goes so low that the watch stops,
timekeeping will resume when the watch is exposed to light.

Power Supply and Charging
The power supply of this watch uses a solar cell to generate electric power, which is stored
by a rechargeable battery. Using or storing the watch where it is not exposed to light
regularly or allowing it to be blocked from light by your sleeve as you are wearing it can
cause the power of the rechargeable battery to run down.
To ensure stable operation, be sure to allow the watch to be exposed to light as much as
possible when you are wearing or storing it.
Charging Precautions
Avoid charging the watch in the following locations, and anywhere else where the watch
may become very hot.
• On the dashboard of an automobile parked in the sun
• Very close to an incandescent light source or other sources of heat
• In a location exposed to direct sunlight for long periods
Depending on the light source you are using, the case of the watch may
become quite hot when charging. Take care to guard against burn injury
after charging.
To charge the battery
Point the face (solar panel) of the watch at a light source.
• Remember that even a partial blockage of the solar cell reduces charging efficiency.
Example:
Positioning the watch
Over-charge Protection
The watch has a built-in function to protect against over-charging of the rechargeable
battery. Because of this, you can expose the watch to light as much as possible without
fear of over-charging.
Charging Guide
This watch will continue to run for about three months without exposure to light after
bringing the battery to a full charge. Making sure the watch is exposed to light as much as
possible ensures stable operation.
Note that the charging times in the table below are for reference only. Actual charging time
depends on a variety of environmental factors.

Low Charge Alert
The second hand moves at two-second intervals to indicate that rechargeable battery
power is low. The watch still will maintain the proper time in this low power state, but
timekeeping will stop entirely after about two days if you don’t expose it to light for charging.
Expose the watch to light until it returns to regular timekeeping, indicated when the second
hand moves at one-second intervals.
Quick Start
Timekeeping will stop if rechargeable battery power drops to zero. However, Quick Start
will resume timekeeping after the watch is exposed to light for only about ten seconds.
• Though timekeeping will resume virtually immediately, it will stop again if exposure to light
is stopped too soon.
• The actual amount of time it takes for timekeeping to resume after exposure to light
depends on the watch model and the brightness of the light.
Adjustment Alert
Even after timekeeping is started by Quick Start, the second hand will perform two-second
interval shuffle movement to indicate adjustment is required. Charge the battery and adjust
the time.
