6. Solar-Powered Watch Handring Notes
This watch uses a secondary battery (rechargeable battery) to store electrical energy. Once
fully charged, this watch will continue to keep the correct time for about 6 months during
normal use (when the Power Save function is not activated). Furthermore, the watch will keep
the correct time for about 2 years when the Power Save function is activated.
<For Optimum Use of this Watch>
In order to use this watch comfortably, try to keep the watch charged at all times. Charge the
watch by exposing the watch dial (containing the solar cell) to direct sunlight or light from a
fluorescent lamp. The watch will not be damaged no matter how much it is charged.
Expose the watch dial (containing the solar cell) toward the light when charging.
<Try to Keep the Watch Charged at all Times>
· If you wear long sleeves, the fabric may cover the watch and prevent it from being exposed
to light resulting in the watch becoming insufficiently charged. During the winter months in
particular, it is recommended to charge the watch by exposing the dial to direct sunlight
about once a month.
· When the watch is removed, try to place it in as bright a location as possible such as near a
window so that sunlight shines onto the watch dial. This will keep the watch charged
continuously and enable it to continue to run properly at all times.
