CAUTION
• Use the indication of the charge level as a reference only.
• If the watch is exposed to strong light for charging the battery, the function
hand may temporarily indicate “LV.1” or “LV.2” despite insufficient charging. If
the function hand goes to “LV.1” or “LV.2” from “NG” position in a short time,
you need to pay careful attention to charging conditions.
It is recommended that you keep the battery sufficiently charged all the time
but especially before using the watch for diving. Always check the indication
of charge level carefully just before diving. (For details of charging time, refer
to “5. TIME REQUIRED FOR CHARGING”.)
Insufficient charge warning function
Insufficient charge warning indication
— Mode hand: DV position, Function hand: NG position —
Whenever the battery power becomes insufficient for
operation, the watch is automatically shifted to the
Time mode regardless of the currently set mode and
the second hand goes for 2 second interval movement.
(Insufficient charge warning indication)
If the watch is left in this condition without recharging
for another two days, the watch will stop.
* If the watch falls into such condition, the time measurement
will be discontinued in the chronograph mode.
* While the watch is falling into the insufficient charge warning indication, all
button operations are ineffective except the max. depth operation.
Since the watch continues accurate indication of the date and time even in
the insufficient charge warning indication, the watch will recover normal
operation if it is exposed to light for sufficiently charging the battery. For
using the watch for diving, sufficiently charge the battery until the function
hand indicates “LV.1” or “LV.2” on the charge level.
