About protective stickers
Please be sure to peel off protective stickers before wearing the watch if glass and metal parts of the watch (case, metal band, and metal parts of the clasp) are covered with the stickers.

Do not attempt to adjust the watchband (including the metal and rubber type) by yourself (except watches with accessory tool for band adjustment). Doing so may result in dropping the watch or injury during the adjustment.

Notes on Charging Your Watch

This watch has a rechargeable cell which is charged by exposing the side surface of the watch to light, such as direct sunlight or fluorescent lamps. After taking off the watch, place it in a location where the side surface is exposed to bright light, such as by a window. Placing the watch exposing the side surface (9 o'clock position) to light as shown in the figure on the right could charge it more efficiently.
Notes on Charging Your Watch
For optimal performance, perform the following:
• Expose the watch with the side surface facing towards direct sunlight for five to six hours at least once a month.
• Do not store the watch in a dark place with no light for a prolonged period of time.
• When the watch is regularly covered with long sleeves, it may not be charged
suciently. Try to keep the watch exposed to light sucient for charging.
• Do not charge the watch at a high temperature (about 60ºC/140˚F or higher).
