HOW TO CHARGE AND START THE WATCH
TO CHARGE THE WATCH
When you start the watch or when the energy in the rechargeable battery is reduced to an extremely low level, charge it sufficiently by exposing the watch to light.
When the watch is exposed to sunlight or strong artificial light (of more than 3,000 lux), it will start operating.
1 Expose the watch to sunlight or strong
artificial light.
* See the table on the next page.
2 When the watch is charged after it has
completely stopped, set the time before wearing the watch.
* See also “GUIDELINE OF CHARGING TIME”
on page 5.

NOTES:
1. It is recommended that you charge the watch for more than the time required until the watch operates steadily. (See “GUIDELINE OF CHARGING TIME” on page 5)
2. It is not necessary to charge the watch fully. It is important, however, to charge the watch sufficiently, especially in case of initial charge.

CAUTION
Caution for charging
When charging the watch, do not place it too close to a photoflash light, spotlight, incandescent light or other light sources as the watch temperature will become extremely high, causing damage to the parts inside the watch.
When exposing the watch to sunlight to charge it, do not leave it on the dashboard of a car, etc. for a long time, as the watch temperature becomes extremely high.
While charging the watch, make sure the watch temperature does not exceed 50° C.

The table above provides only a general guideline.
When the watch is fully charged, it will keep operating for approximately 5
months.
TO PREVENT THE ENERGY DEPLETION
Wear the watch so that it is not covered by your clothes.
When the watch is not in use, leave it in a bright place as
long as possible.
* Make sure that the watch temperature does not exceed 50° C.

NOTE ON POWER SUPPLY
This watch is provided with a rechargeable battery for exclusive use with the watch. Unlike conventional battery-powered watches, therefore, battery replacement is not necessary.
The solar cell is a clean energy source, having no adverse effect on the natural environment.
CAUTION
Never insert a conventional silver oxide battery in your watch as it may explode, generate an intense heat or catch fire. The watch is so designed that even if the battery is installed in the watch, the watch will not operate.

If used in sea water, rinse the watch in fresh water and dry it completely.
• When taking a shower with the water resistant 5 bar watch, or taking a bath with the water resistant 10, 15 or 20 bar watch, be sure to observe the following:
* Do not operate the crown when the watch is wet with soapy water
or shampoo.
* If the watch is left in warm water, a slight time loss or gain may be
caused. This condition, however, will be corrected when the watch returns to normal temperature.
English
* Pressure in bar is a test pressure and should not be considered as corresponding
to actual diving depth since swimming movement tends to increase the pressure at a given depth. Care should also be taken on diving into water.
** We recommend that you wear a PULSAR Diver’s Watch for scuba diving.
TEMPERATURES MAGNETISM
Your watch works with
