The above table provides only a general guideline.
u
The watch operates while charging electricity by converting light received on the
dial to electrical energy. It cannot properly operate unless the remaining energy is
sufficient. Place or store the watch in a location receiving light etc., to sufficiently
charge electricity.
• When the watch is stopped or the second hand starts moving at 2-second
intervals, charge the watch by exposing it to light.
• It is recommended that the watch be charged for as long as the charging time
"B" to assure the stable movement of the watch.
ENERGY DEPLETION FOREWARNING FUNCTION
v
TO PREVENT THE ENERGY DEPLETION
●
When the energy stored in the rechargeable battery is reduced to an extremely
low level, the second hand starts moving at 2-second intervals instead of the
normal 1-second intervals. The watch remains accurate even while the second
hand is moving at 2-second intervals.
●
In that case, recharge the watch as soon as possible by exposing it to light.
Otherwise, the watch may stop operating in about 3 days. (For recharging the
watch, see “HOW TO CHARGE AND START THE WATCH”)
•
When wearing the watch, make sure that the watch is not covered by
clothing.
•
When the watch is not in use, leave it in a bright place as long as possible.
* Make sure that the watch temperature does not exceed 50 °C.
