BATTERY CHANGE
Battery life : Approx. 2 years
2
Years
The battery life may be less than 2 years if the alarm is used for more than 10 seconds (Cal. W240) / 20 seconds (Cal. W620, W650) a day and/or the illuminating light more than 2 times (Cal. W240) / 3 times (Cal. W620, W650) a day.
As the battery is inserted at the factory to check the function and performance of the watch, its actual life once in your possession may be less than the specified period.
When the battery expires, be sure to replace it as soon as possible to prevent any malfunction.
We recommend that you contact an AUTHORIZED PULSAR DEALER for battery replacement.
Battery life indicator
When all the digits start flashing, have the battery replaced with a new one as soon as possible.
Necessary procedure after battery change
After the battery is replaced with a new one, or if an abnormal display (broken digits, etc.) appears, follow the procedure below to reset the IC.
Battery : SEIKO CR1620 (Cal. W240)

If it is necessary to take out the battery, keep it out of the reach of
children. If a child swallows it, consult a doctor immediately.
Never short-circuit, tamper with or heat the battery, and never expose
it to fire. The battery may burst, become very hot or catch fire.
CAUTION
The battery is not rechargeable. Never attempt to recharge it, as this
may cause battery leakage or damage to the battery.

• 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 buttons 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.
17
* 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.
