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.
* While the stopwatch is measuring, the graphic
display turns on and off repeatedly.

■ LUMIBRITE WATCH
(dial, hands, buttons, case, bezel, strap, etc.)
✩ If your watch is a LORUS LUMIBRITE watch, it
has following features.
LORUS LUMIBRITE watches absorb and store light
energy from natural and artificial light sources
and emit light in the dark. They are made of
environmentally friendly material, and therefore,
are harmless to human beings and the environment.
• With a full charge, LORUS LUMIBRITE watches
glow in the dark hours longer than conventional luminous watches of this type. If exposed to a light of more than 500 lux (i.e., the
brightness of a typical office) for approximately 10 minutes, or direct sunlight for 2 minutes,
they will glow for hours.
• Since LORUS LUMIBRITE watches emit the light
they store, the brightness will decrease gradually
over time. The length of time they will glow
may also differ slightly depending on such factors
as the brightness of and distance from the light
source used to charge the watch.

■ LORUS LITE
When button “E” is depressed and released in
the time/calendar, stopwatch, stroke, timer or
alarm display, the electroluminescent light evenly
illuminates the display for 3 seconds for easy
viewing in the dark.
E
Notes:
1. LORUS LITE watches work with one battery.
When the electroluminescent light begins to
lose its luminance, this is an indication that
the battery is depleted. We recommend that
you change the battery before the watch itself
stops.
2. If the electroluminescent light is used continuously for a long time, the battery life may
be less than the specified period.
■ BATTERY CHANGE
The miniature lithium battery Matsushita CR1620
(for Cal. W240)/SEIKO CR2025, SONY CR2025 or
Matsushita CR2025 (for Cal. W620), which powers
your watch should last approximately 2 years.
However, because it is inserted at the factory, the
actual life of the battery once in your possession
may be less than 2 years.
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.
Notes:
1. If the stopwatch and timer are used simultaneously
for more than 10 hours a day, the alarm for
more than 10 seconds (for Cal. W240)/20 seconds
(for Cal. W620) a day, the illuminating light
more than 2 times (for Cal. W240)/3 times (for
Cal. W620) a day and/or the confirmation sound
more than 50 times a day, the battery life may
be less than the specified period.
2. After the battery is replaced with a new one, be
sure to depress buttons “A”, “B”, “C” and “D”
at the same time for 2 to 3 seconds. The display
becomes blank, and when the buttons are released,
the time/calendar of “A 12:00oo SA 1-1” is displayed.
Then, set the desired time/calendar and alarm
time. (See “HOW TO SET THE TIME/CALENDAR”
and “HOW TO SET THE ALARM”.)

• ALLERGIC REACTION
Because the case and band touch the skin
directly, it is important to clean them regularly.
If not, shirt sleeves may be stained and those
with delicate skin may develop a rash. Please
wear the watch with some play to avoid any
possible allergic reaction. If you develop a
rash on your wrist, stop wearing and consult
a physician.
• MAGNETISM
Your watch will not be affected by magnetism
generated by household electric appliances.
• SHOCKS AND VIBRATIONS
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 so that constant
accuracy may be insured at normal temperature.
■SERVICE
When your LORUS watch requires repair or
servicing, please see the enclosed WARRANTY/
GUARANTEE.
