AUTOMATIC HAND ALIGNMENT
POWER SOURCE (KINETIC E.S.U.)
Unlike the conve ntional quartz watch powered by the but ton-type battery, the
KINE TIC is an analog quar tz watch e quipped with an Automatic Generating
System, the unique technology developed by SEIKO, which generates electrical
energy to power the watch by utilizing the movement of the arm or wrist , and
stores it in the KINETIC ELECTRICIT Y STORAGE UNIT (K INETIC E.S.U.) The watch
is equipped w ith a direct drive indicator that constantly displays how long the
watch will keep operating. The direc t drive indicator also dynamically displays
the ele ctric power generation st atus while charging the watch.
CAUTION
The movement of your arm while the watch is worn generates electrical
●
energy to power the watch. Even if the watch is worn on your arm, it will
not be charged while your arm is not in motion.
It is recommended that the watch be worn on your wrist daily for at least
●
10 hours.
If you do not wear the watch for more than the continuous operating time
●
that it displays, charge the watch as necessary so as not to stop operation
of the watch until the next time you wear it. Refer to “How to charge and
start the watch” for further details.
THE KINETIC E.S.U. is an abbreviation for KINETIC ELECTRICITY STORAGE UNIT,
❖
which is the name of the power source employed in the KINETIC movements.

POWER RESERVE INDICATOR
■
The watch checks power reserve d in the KINETIC E. S.U and displays how
●
long the watch will keep operating in 18 steps ( 0 - M scale marking).
The continuous operating time until approximately one month ( 30 days )
●
can be displayed.
The power reserve indicator provides an app roximate time tha t the watch keeps op erating
✽
without need ing to be cha rged.
If the direct d rive indic ator han d moves to the 0 pos ition, the watch will stop ope rating within
✽
3 hours. When the w atch stops, the indicator hand m oves to the standby position to show
that the watch stop s operating due to a power sh ortage.
If the crown is turned after the watch is fully charged, the indicator points at the “M+1” posi

tion.
REAL-TIME POWER INDICATOR
■
While turnin g the crown to charge the watch, the watch checks a newly
●
generated amount of pow er and display s it in 19 steps (0 - “M+1” scale
marking).
A maximum 6 hours of generated power can b e displayed.
●
The re al-tim e power indicator p rovides an approxim ate am ount of p ower generated through
✽
current power ge neration.
Afte r power g eneration by turning the crown is compl eted, the indicato r hand will dis play the
✽
amount of newly generated power for a pproximately 4 se conds, and then the indi cator hand
will move to display the total a mount of powe r reserve.

3. Stop turning the crown. The direct drive indicator hand returns to display
the total amount of power reser ve af ter approximately 4 seconds.
Afte r the crown is turned repe atedly, the indicator hand wil l stop at the maximum scale value
✽
( “M+1” po sition) .
If the crown is turned after the indicator hand stops at the “M+1” position, the watch continues to accumulate
power reserve, but stops displaying the power generation status. If you want to display the power generation
status, stop turning the crown, and after the indicator hand returns to display the power reserve, start turning the
crown again.
If turning the crown m ore quickly a nd in long strokes s o that the indic ator h and m akes l arge
✽
movement, the g enerated powe r increases efficiently.
De pendin g on interval s betwe en turni ng the crown, the in dicator hand may not move. This
✽
is not a malfunction.
The w atch is equ ipp ed with a system to preve nt overch arge. Even if the crown is turned
✽
when the ind icator hand points at the m aximum sc ale value of power reserve, no malfuncti on

will result.
The watch can be c harged if it is swung from side to side, however, it may take time until it
✽
displays the power generation status.
Even if th e watch is worn on the wrist after it is charged fully (power re serve of 30 days),
✽
and then it is left unto uched, the watch wil l not operate for more than 30 days after it is worn
again.
Wh en you take off t he watch a nd lea ve it untou ched , look a t the ind icato r to check if the

IMPROPER FUNCTION
Whe n th e wa tch st ops op erating even though it displays the rema ind er of the
power r eserve, follow the ins tructions below to reset the built-in IC.
HOW TO RESET THE BUILT-IN IC
■
1. Pull out the crown to the second click .
2. Press the button for 2 seconds or more using a sharp-pointed tool (e.g.
ball point pen).
3. Pus h the crown ba ck into the normal po sition.
✽ The indicator hand will point at the 0 position, and the watch resumes its normal
operation.
Page 20
English
20
✽ If the indicator hand points at under the 0 position, sufficiently charge the watch.
Refer to “How to charge and start the watch”.
✽ By conducting this operation, the indicator hand moves to the 0 position even
though it displayed that there was remaining power reserve; however, this is not a
malfunction.
✽ If the watch does not resume normal operation even after resetting the built-in IC,
consult the retailer from whom the watch was purchased.
4. Turn the crown to charge the watch at least un til the indicator hand points
at the se cond marking above "0"(approximately 6 hours of power reserve).
And then set the time, date, and day of the week.
AUTOMATIC HAND ALIGNMENT
The position of the indicator hand may move out of alignment in rare cases. The
wat ch automatically co rrec ts the position of the ind ic ator hand once ever y 24
hours. While correcting the hand position, the indic ator hand moves abnormally,
however, this is not a malfunc tion. After automatic hand alignment is performed,
the indicator hand will return to display power reserve amount.
<About the movement of the indicator hand during automatic hand alignment>
When automatic hand alignment starts, the indicator hand moves to the area under
the 0 position and vibrat es, and then points at the 0 pos ition. Af ter aut oma tic
hand alignment is completed, the indicator hand returns to display power reserve
amount.
