I. GENERAL INFORMATION
Congratulations on having chosen a Victorinox Swiss Army timepiece. To ensure
your timepiece operates perfectly, we recommend that you follow the advice given
in these instructions (All instruction manuals are also available on our website:
www.victorinoxswissarmy.com – Customer Service – User Manuals. For U.S. and
Canada: www.swissarmy.com).
Your timepiece is fitted with either a screw-down or a “pull-out” crown. In order to
establish which, gently try to pull out the crown to position 2, if that works, your
timepiece is fitted with a “pull-out” crown. If not, use your thumb and forefinger to
apply mild pressure on the crown, while rotating towards you to release it. If it does
so, you have a screw-down crown.
After use, push the crown back in or screw it down until it is secure in
order to maintain the water resistance of your timepiece.
Quartz timepieces are battery-operated. When the battery is exhausted, we
recommend that you have it replaced immediately at an authorized Victorinox Swiss
Army Watch SA Service Centre where the water resistance of your timepiece will
also be checked. The battery is not covered by the warranty.
COLLECTION AND DISPOSAL OF QUARTZ TIMEPIECE BATTERIES*
This symbol indicates that this product must not be thrown away with
household rubbish. It must be disposed of at an authorized battery
disposal point. By doing so you will be protecting the environment and
human health. Recycling conserves natural resources.
*Applicable in EU member countries and countries with similar
legislation.

SPECIAL RECOMMENDATIONS
– To avoid any errors, do not perform the DATE SETTING between 9:00 p.m. and
3:00 a.m. when the date mechanism is in action. Be careful not to confuse noon
and midnight.
– Never operate pushers or crown when your timepiece is under water or if
it is wet and ensure that the crown and pushers are properly pushed back
or screwed down after each use.
– We recommend that you have the water resistance of your timepiece checked
at an authorized Victorinox Swiss Army Watch SA Service Centre every
18 months or whenever the timepiece case is opened.
