CAUTION
The No decompression limits table
attached to the watch is for supple-
mentary information purposes only
and should not be relied upon in any
situation in which the health or
safety of the diving is at risk. The No
decompression limits table of the
watch does not contain all
information necessary to ensure
proper decompression.
For example:
Decompression is not needed when diving depth is
21 metres and the elapsed time is less than 50 minutes.
Ⅵ Use Precautions
1. Water resistant
The crown must be pushed in at all times. Also on
screwlock-type crowns, screw should be tightened
completely.
• Do not operate the crown in the water or while the
watch is wet.
• Clouding of glass
Since there is some moisture in a watch, if the
outside temperature is lower than inside the watch,
the glass may get fogged. If the fog clears soon, it is
not a problem. If it does not clear soon, however,
have it checked immediately.
2. Protective Packings
• Packings incorporated in this watch (for its
caseback, crown and glass) prevent entering of
water, dust and other foreign matters into the watch
to protect its functions. Periodical replacement of
these packings (every 2 years approximately) is
recommended since they may become subject to
brittleness and/or their elasticity may decrease after
a long-time use.
3. Use for diving
Be sure to check the following points when you use
this watch for diving.
a. Before diving
• The time has been properly set.
• The crown is properly in lock position.
• The register ring properly rotates counter-clockwise.
It does not rotate clockwise (never force to rotate it at
this time).
• There are no scratches in the wrist band and no
cracks nor chipped portions in glass of the watch.
Also, the band should be fastened tightly to the
watch case.
• For any irregularity found immediately contact the
store where you purchesed the watch or an
authorized Citizen Dealer.
b. During Diving
• Be sure not to operate the crown in water or when
the watch is wet.
• Be careful not to drop or hit the watch against a
rock or other hard items.
c. After Diving
• Wash the watch with fresh water to prevent rust
formation due to sea water.
• Wipe off water droplets adhering to the watch after
washing.

This watch will withstand the bumps and jars normally
incurred while playing and during sports activities.
Avoid dropping your watch on the ground or
otherwise imparting severe shock to it.
