If the watch body or band becomes edged by corrosion etc.
If the pins protrude from the band.
Immediately consult the retailer from whom the watch was purchased or
SEIKO CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER.
Keep the watch and accessories out of the reach of babies and children.
Care should be taken to prevent a baby or a child accidentally swallowing the accessories. If a baby or child swallows the battery or accessories, immediately consult a doctor, as it will be harmful to the health of the baby or child.
Do not remove the battery from the watch.
Replacement of the battery requires professional knowledge and skill. Please ask the retailer from whom the watch was purchased for battery replacement. Do not recharge the battery, as doing so can generate heat which may cause bursting, leakage or ignition.
WARNING
Do not use the watch in scuba diving or saturation diving.
The various tightened inspections under simulated harsh environment, which are usually required for watches designed for scuba diving or saturation diving, have not been conducted on
the water-resistant watch with the BAR (barometric pressure)
display. For diving, use special watches for diving.
To indicate the risks of serious consequences such as severe injuries unless the following safety regulations are strictly observed.
WARNING
Avoid wearing or storing the watch in the following places.
Places where volatile agents (cosmetics such as polish remover, bug repellent,
thinners, etc.) are vaporizing.
Places where the temperature drops below 5 ºC or rises above 35 ºC for a long time.
Places of high humidity.○
Places affected by strong magnetism or static electricity.
Dusty places. ○ Places affected by strong vibrations.
Do not leave a dead battery within the watch for a long time as leakage may occur.
If you observe any allergic symptoms or skin irritation
Stop wearing the watch immediately and consult a specialist such as a dermatologist or an allergist.
Other cautions
Replacement of the metal band requires professional knowledge and skill. Please ask the retailer from whom the watch was purchased for replacement of
the metal band, as there is a risk of hand or nger injury and fear of losing parts.
Do not disassemble or tamper with the watch.
Keep the watch out of the reach of babies and children. Extra care should be
taken to avoid risks of any injury or allergic rash or itching that may be caused when they touch the watch.
When disposing of used batteries, follow the instructions of your local
authorities.
If your watch is of the fob or pendant type, the strap or chain attached to the watch may damage your clothes, or injure the hand, neck, or other parts of your body.
Please keep in mind that if a watch is taken off and placed down as it is, the case back, the band and the clasp will rub against each other possibly causing scratches on the case back. We recommend placing a soft cloth between the case back, the band and the clasp after taking off your watch.
CAUTIONS
To indicate the risks of light injuries or material damages unless the following safety regulations are strictly observed.
Do not leave moisture, sweat and dirt on the watch for a long time.
Be aware of a risk that a water resistant watch may lessen its water resistant performance because of deterioration of the adhesive on the glass or gasket, or the development of rust on stainless steel.
Do not pour running water directly from the faucet.
The water pressure of tap water from a faucet is high enough to degrade the water resistant performance of a water resistant watch for everyday life.
CAUTIONS
Do not turn or pull out the crown when the watch is wet.
Water may get inside of the watch.
If the inner surface of the glass is clouded with condensation or water droplets appear inside of the watch for a long time, the water resistant performance of the watch is deteriorated. Immediately consult the retailer from whom the watch was purchased or SEIKO CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER.
Do not wear the watch while taking a bath or a sauna.
Steam, soap or some components of a hot spring may accelerate the deterioration of water resistant performance of the watch.

HOW TO USE
Crown

Screw-lock type crown
The screw-lock type crown features a mechanism that can securely lock the crown when they are not being operated in order to prevent any operational errors and to improve its water resistant property.
