■ HOW TO USE THE STOPWATCH
• The stopwatch can measure up to 9 hours, 59
minutes, 59 seconds and 99 in 1⁄100 seconds.
* Even if the stopwatch display is changed to another
while the measurement is in progress, it continues
counting properly. After the stopwatch is used,
however, be sure to reset it as the battery energy
is consumed enormously to shorten the battery
life.

■BATTERY CHANGE
The miniature lithium battery SEIKO SR1130W,which
powers your watch should last approximately 1 year.
However, because it is inserted at the factory, the
actual life of the battery once in your possession may
be less than 1 year.
Be sure to replace the battery to prevent any possible
malfunction as soon as it runs down. To replace the
battery, we recommend taking the watch to a local
watch repair shop.
■ CARE AND SERVICE OF YOUR
LORUS WATCH
1. Care:
• BATTERY
CAUTION
Do not expose the old battery to fire or
recharge it. Keep it at a place beyond
the reach of children.
• WATER RESISTANT
Your watch is classified into one of the following
four groups by the degree of water resistance.
Please read the appropriate item below for proper
use.
If your watch is water resistant, “WATER RESISTANT”
is shown on the back of your watch case. If your
watch is 100m or 50m water resistant, it is so
indicated on the dial. If your watch is non-water
resistant, there is no such indication.
Water resistant: These watches are designed
to withstand accidental contact with water, for
example, splashes or rain, but should not be worn
while swimming or diving.
Water resistant (50m): These watches are
suitable for swimming and can be worn in the
shower, but not for diving.
Water resistant (100m): These watches are
suitable for swimming or skin diving (without
heavy breathing apparatus), but not for scuba
diving.
Non-water resistant: Care should be taken
not to get your watch wet as water may damage
the movement.
• Do not depress any buttons when the watch is
wet.
• If the watch is exposed to salt water, rinse it in
fresh water and then wipe it thoroughly dry.
• ANTI-MAGNETIC
Your watch will not be affected by magnetism
generated by household electric appliances.
• ANTI-SHOCK
Your watch may be worn for normal sports activities, but be careful not to drop it or hit it on hard
surfaces.
• TEMPERATURE
Your watch is preadjusted that constant accuracy
may be insured at normal temperature.
