Usage / Settings
Winding
Crown (
12
) in position
I
(not pulled out)
Your watch has a power reserve of approximately 42 hours. Manual wind-
ing is required if you have not worn your watch for this length of time.
To reactivate it, you need only turn the crown a few revolutions (forward)
or swing your watch from side to side a few times. Around 32 revolu-
tions of the crown (forward) are required to obtain the maximum power
reserve.
When wearing your watch, the automatic device winds it every time you
move your wrist.
Note:
On this automatic model, there is no stop to indicate it is fully
wound.
Recommended order for setting your watch
It is recommended that the functions of your watch are set in the following
order:
1
Correction of the day
2
Setting of the time
3
Correction of the date and month
4
Correction of the moon phase
Correction of the day (9
)
Crown (
12
) in position
III
, completely pulled out
Pull out the crown (
12
) to position
III
with care; the second hand (
3
) will stop.
Turn the crown so that the hands turn in a clockwise direction. When the
hour hand passes the 12 o'clock position, every 24 hours, the day changes.
Make as many turns as required to reach the desired day.
Setting the time
Crown (
12
) in position
III
, completely pulled out
Pull out the crown (
12
) to position
III
with care; the seconds hand (
3
)
will stop. Turn the crown forwards or backwards to set the desired time.
Once the hour hand passes the 12 o'clock position, you will be able to see
whether it is indicating midnight (the date and day will change) or midday
(the date will not change).
Advice on how to synchronise your watch
To synchronise the seconds hand (
3
) with an official time signal (radio/TV/
Internet), pull out the crown to position
III
; the second hand will stop. When
you hear the audible signal, push the crown back into position
I
.
Correction of the date (8) and month (10)
Crown (
12
) in position
II
, half pulled out
Pull out the crown (
12
) to position
II
and turn it forwards until the desired
date (
8
) and month (
10
) is displayed. During this operation, your watch will
continue to function normally, so you will not need to alter the time.
Correction of the moon phase (11)
Pull out the crown (
12
) to position
II
, and turn it backwards until the
desired moon phase (
11
) is displayed.
Important:
Never set the date and month between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m., the
moon phase between 3 and 4 a.m., or the day between 9.30 p.m.
and midnight.

Care and maintenance
We would advise you to clean your watch regularly (except for the leather
strap) using a soft cloth and warm soapy water. After immersion in salty
water, rinse it in fresh water and leave it to dry completely.
Do not leave it anywhere where it might be subjected to major variations in
temperature or humidity, direct sunlight or strong magnetic fields.
For impeccable maintenance service and for the warranty to remain valid,
always consult a MIDO
®
approved dealer or agent.
The intricately finished mechanism of your MIDO
®
watch will provide
complete satisfaction for many years if you take care of it. However,
we recommend you have your watch checked every 3 to 4 years by your
MIDO
®
approved dealer or agent.
