A. BEFORE USING
This watch is not powered by a conventional battery, but is powered by converting light to electrical energy.
Before using, be sure to fully charge your watch by exposing it to light. (See “F. TIME REQUIRED FOR CHARGING”, for charge time reference) Since it takes time to recharge the watch until it starts running again once it has stopped, try to make sure the watch is charged everyday. When the watch has stopped, the watch hands will begin to move when the watch is charged for about 5 hours in the case of the two-hand model or about 1 hour in the case of the three-hand model at 3000Lux (under a fluorescent light at a distance of about 20 cm(8 inch)).
Once fully charged, the watch will continue to run for approximately 5 months in the case of the three-hand model, and for approximately 2 months in the case of the two-hand model, without additional charging.
Your watch features an Overcharge Prevention Function so there is no need to worry about overcharging your watch.
A special energy storage cell is used to store electrical energy. This special cell does not require replacement and is a clean energy unit that does not contain any toxic substances.
