14. Handling Your Solar Powered Watch
CAUTION
Charging precautions
Overheating while charging can cause the watch exterior to become discolored, the
watch to deform or the movement to be damaged.
Do not charge the watch in a high-temperature environment (about 60°C/140°F or
more).
Example) Charging close to incandescent lighting, halogen lamps, or other lighting
sources that easily become hot.
Charging on surfaces that can easily become hot, such as a car dashboard.
When charging with incandescent lighting, halogen lamps, or other lighting sources
that easily become hot, place the watch at least 50 cm (20 in.) away from the source to
avoid overheating.

WARNING
Handling the secondary battery
Do not remove the secondary battery from the watch yourself, unless unavoidable.
If you must remove the battery, store it out of reach of children to avoid accidental
ingestion. If the secondary battery is ingested, consult a doctor immediately.
WARNING
Changing the secondary battery
Although the secondary battery should never need to be changed, in rare instances,
the watch may be unable to be charged due to a problem with the battery. If a problem
occurs, have the watch repaired as soon as possible.
