Before Using the Watch for the First Time

xDepending on your watch model, there may be a spacer installed at the factory around the crown. If your watch has a spacer, you should remove the spacer before using the watch.

xAfter removing the spacer, use the procedures in “Crown Operations” and “To adjust the time setting” to set up the watch for use.

Crown Operations

Crown

 

Some water-resistant models (100 meters, 200 meters) have a screw-in crown. When you need to perform a crown operation, rotate it towards you to unscrew it. Then pull the

crown out. Avoid applying undue force when pulling. The watch loses its water resistance while the crown is unscrewed. After performing a crown operation, fully screw the crown back in.

If your watch has a rotary bezel...

You can rotate the bezel to align its mark with the minute hand. Then you will be able to tell how much time has elapsed since aligning the mark.

Power Supply: Solar panel and one rechargeable battery Approximate battery operating time: 5 months

Solar Charging

A solar panel generates electrical power that charges a built-in (secondary) battery. The entire face is a solar panel, so power is generated when the face is exposed to light. Keep the watch exposed to light as much as possible.

Charging the Battery

When you are not wearing the watch, leave it where it is exposed to light. For stable operation, expose the watch to at least a half day of light per month.

When wearing the watch, try to keep your clothing from blocking its face (solar panel). Charging efficiency is reduced significantly even if the face is blocked only partially.

Caution!

xThe case of the watch may become quite hot when charging. Guard against burn injury after charging.

xAvoid charging in the following locations, and anywhere else where the watch may become very hot.

On the dashboard of an automobile parked in the sun

Close to an incandescent light source or other sources of heat

Locations exposed to direct sunlight for long periods

Low Charge and Dead Battery Conditions

An alert operation is performed when the battery charge goes low.

Low Battery Alert

The second hand will jump at two-second intervals to alert you when the charge is low.
