(When Using the Vibration Alarm)
• Vibrations may not be felt easily if the watch is worn too loosely. Wear the watch so
that the watch body is constantly in contact with your arm.
• It may also be difficult to feel the vibrations during strenuous exercise or when
performing work that involves swinging or shaking your arm.
• If you take off your watch and simply carry it in your pocket and so forth, it may not
be possible to detect that the vibration alarm has gone off when the set alarm time is
reached. In such cases, switch from vibration to the sound alarm.
(When Using the Sound Alarm)
• If you wear your watch tightly on your wrist, it may be difficult to hear the alarm
sound. Wear the watch somewhat loosely to hear the alarm sound better.
• When it is difficult to hear the alarm sound due to high levels of surrounding noise and
so forth, switch to the vibration alarm.
• Switch to the vibration alarm when desiring to be informed of the time by the alarm
in a manner that does not inconvenience those around you.
Refer to the alarm identification mark on the display to determine whether the watch
is set to the sound alarm or vibration alarm.

The alarm function of this watch uses a 12-hour clock. The alarm is turned off
automatically once it has sounded or vibrated. The auxiliary time (alarm set time) is then
switched over to the current time display and runs concurrently with the primary time.
4. Use of the Alarm
When primary time is different from auxiliary time : Alarm is on.
When primary time is the same as auxiliary time : Alarm is off.

(Setting the Alarm Time)
(1) Press button C to set the alarm with the auxiliary time. (When pressing button C for
the first time, pressing it continuously for at least 0.5 seconds will cause the auxiliary
time to advance in 1 minute increments. After that, the auxiliary time will advance by
1 minute each time button C is pressed. Pressing button C continuously causes the
auxiliary time to advance rapidly.)
• The following occur when the alarm set time (auxiliary time) is reached:
When using the sound alarm: The alarm sounds for 15 seconds.
When using the vibration alarm: The watch vibrates 10 times.
After sounding or vibrating, the alarm is switched off automatically, and auxiliary time
switches over to primary time.
Since the alarm set time is stored in the memory of the watch, when the alarm is
turned again by pressing button A, the auxiliary time will switch over to the set time
stored in memory.
(Switching Between Sound Alarm and Vibration Alarm)
(1) The alarm notification method switches between the sound alarm and vibration alarm
each time button B is pressed.
• Blue identification mark: Vibration alarm
• White identification mark: Sound alarm

16
(Stopping the Alarm from Sounding or Vibrating)
• When the time reaches the alarm set time, the alarm will either sound for 15 seconds
or vibrate 10 times.
• The alarm can be stopped by pressing any button.
(Turning the Alarm On and Off)
• Pressing button A (for about 2 seconds) turns the alarm function on and off.
When the alarm function is turned on, the auxiliary time will switch to the alarm set
time.
The following occur when the alarm function is turned on:
When using the sound alarm: The alarm sounds three times.
When using the vibration alarm: The watch will vibrate three times.
When the alarm function is turned off, the auxiliary time will switch over to the
primary time, and run concurrently with primary time.

When the watch is not worn or carried in a pocket or other clothing so that the
watch falls to a temperature lower than that when normally worn, the vibration
motor low temperature power saving feature is activated. This feature
automatically turns off the vibration alarm function. When this vibration motor
low temperature power saving feature has been activated, the second hand
switches to irregular 2-second interval movement. When this happens, warm
up the watch body by putting the watch on your arm in the manner it is worn
normally. The watch will then switch
from irregular 2-second interval
movement and return to normal
operation. The sound alarm operates
normally.
5. Troubleshooting
Irregular 2-second interval movement
Rotary Instructions RT140:Rotary Instructions RT140 09/03/2009

As the battery approaches the end of its service life, the second hand will
switch to 2-second interval movement, in which the second advances two
seconds at a time, informing the wearer that the battery is nearly worn out.
When this happens, have the battery replaced promptly.
When the low battery warning feature is acti vated, the sound alarm function
and vibration alarm function will no longer operate.

Date and Time setting instruction
Your automatic watch will never need a battery as the
movement means that it supports both an automatic and
mechanical function.
For manual winding turn the crown clockwise at its
original position until it feels tight. Alternatively the rotor
will wind the mainspring every time you move and can
run for 40 hours.
