3. SOLAR POWER WATCH

This watch is powered not by an ordinary battery, but by converting light energy into
electrical energy.

A rechargeable battery is used in this watch to store electrical energy. This secondary
battery is a clean energy battery that doesn't use any toxic substances such as mercury.
Once fully charged, the watch will continue to run for approximately 6 months without
further charging.

• Since the energy source of this watch is light, expose it to light sufficiently to
charge the battery in it.

• The battery of this watch is never overcharged by exposing it to light.

• If the user wears long-sleeved clothes usually, the watch is covered and its

rechargeable battery may not be charged sufficiently. If so, additional charging
may be necessary when not worn.

• The watch should be put on a well-lit place as long as possible for its normal
operation while it is not worn.

The watch should be exposed to light each day to ensure the watch has a sufficient charge
for proper operation.
