2. Before Using
This watch is a solar-powered watch. Before using, charge the watch sufficient-
ly by exposing it to light. In the case the watch has stopped running due to
being insufficiently charged, expose it to sunlight or other intense light to
recharge the watch sufficiently.
This watch uses a secondary battery to store electrical energy. This secondary bat-
tery is a clean energy battery that does not use mercury or any other harmful sub-
stances. Once fully charged, the watch circuit will continue to keep time for about
6 months without additional charging.
<Proper Use of Solar-Powered Watches>
In order to ensure that this watch is used comfortably, try to charge the watch as fre-
quently as possible to prevent it from becoming insufficiently charged and stopping.
There is no risk of overcharging this watch no matter how often it is charged (as a
result of being provided with an overcharge prevention function). It is recommend-
ed to try to recharge this watch at least once a day.
