Operation Guide 5519

Using the Crown

The watch’s crown is a screw-in (screw lock) type. To use the crown, you first need to rotate it towards you (leftwards) to loosen it.

Crown

Loosen

Pulling Out and Pushing In the Crown

Before performing a crown operation, you need to pull it out to the first or second click as shown in the figures below. Do not pull the crown with too much force.

First click

Normal timekeeping

Second click

Important!

To prevent loss of water resistance and/or damage due to impact, be sure to screw the crown in by rotating it away from you as you push it in.

Screw in

When pushing the crown back in, take care not to apply too much force.

Fast Forward/Fast Reverse

After pulling out the crown, rotating it quickly in succession in either direction will cause the hands to move forward or back at high speed. While the hands are moving forward at high speed, quickly rotating the crown in succession again will increase the speed even further.

Stopping Fast Forward/Fast Reverse

Rotate the crown in the direction opposite that of the ongoing operation or press any button.

Note

If you do not perform any operation for about two minutes after pulling out the crown, crown operations will automatically become disabled. If that happens, push the crown back in and then pull it out again.

Hands and the Day Indicator

Movement

Mode Hand and Day Indicator Movement

Changing the day setting of the watch will also cause the mode hand to move.

Day

It can take anywhere from about 90 seconds to three minutes for the day indicator to change after timekeeping reaches midnight. The mode hand moves as the day indicator changes.

The day may not be indicated correctly while the watch’s crown is pulled out.

Solar Charging

This watch runs on power supplied from a rechargeable (secondary) battery that is charged by a solar panel. The solar panel is integrated into the face of the watch, and power is generated whenever the face is exposed to light.

Charging the Watch

When you are not wearing the watch, put it in a location where it is exposed to bright light.

While you are wearing the watch, make sure that its face (solar panel) is not blocked from the light by the sleeve of your clothing. Power generation efficiency is reduced even when the face of the watch is blocked only partially.

YES NO

Important!

Depending on light intensity and local conditions, the watch may become hot to the touch when exposed to light for charging. Take care to avoid burn injury after charging. Also, avoid charging the watch under high-temperature conditions like the ones described below.

On the dashboard of a vehicle parked in the sun

Near an incandescent light bulb or other source of heat

Under direct sunlight or in other hot areas for long periods

Remaining Charge and Dead Battery

The charge level is indicated by watch hand movement. Functions become disabled as battery power goes low.

Important!

Should battery go low or go dead, expose the face (solar panel) to light as soon as possible.

Operation Guide 5519

Note

Exposing the watch face to light after the battery goes dead will cause the second hand to revolve counterclockwise until it stops at second 57. This indicates charging has started.

Low Battery Power

The second hand jumps at two-second intervals.

Power Saving

Leaving the watch in a dark location for about one hour between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. will cause the second hand to stop, and the watch will enter Level 1 power saving. If the watch is left in this condition for six or seven days, all hands (except for the mode hand) will stop at 12 o’clock and the watch will enter Level 2 power saving.

Level 1 :

Second hand stops to save power.
