2. Names of Components 3. Before Using Rotating bezel PROFESSIO NA L This watch is powered not by an ordinary battery, but by converting photo energy to electrical energy. Before using, expose to light and make sure the watch is sufficiently charged. See "8. Time Required for Charging" for reference charging times. D IV E R M 300 TITANIUM 'S A secondary battery is used in this watch to store electrical energy.
. Setting the Time and Date W Setting the time Note: A screw down locking crown is employed to enhance the water resistance of the watch. When operating the crown, first turn it to the left to disengage the screw lock. Once you have finished operating the crown, always make sure to return the crown to the normal position and then turn it to the right while pushing it in so that the screw lock is securely engaged.
. Functions of Solar Powered Watches If the charge becomes insufficient, a warning function will operate and the display changes as shown below.
W Insufficient Charge Warning Function The second hand changes to a two second interval movement to indicate insufficient recharging. Even in such a case, the watch keeps correct time, but about 3 days after the two second interval movement begins, the watch will stop. After exposing the watch to light, recharging takes place and the watch returns to one second interval movement. W Quick Start Function The watch will stop if it is completely discharged.
6. Care and Handling During Charging 7. Replacing the Secondary Battery W Notes on use Unlike ordinary batteries, the secondary battery used in this watch does not have to be periodically replaced due to repeated charging and discharging. Take care to charge your watch during use. Please note that if you wear long sleeves, the watch can easily become insufficiently charged because it is hidden and not exposed to light.
. Time Required for Charging * The recharging time is the time when the watch is continuously exposed to light. Time required for recharging may vary according to the design (color of the dial, etc.) and operating environment. The following table will serve as a rough reference. Full charge time .......... The time to fully recharge after the watch has stopped. One day usage ............. The time required for the watch to run for one day with ..................................
. Do not Using this Watch while Diving when... PROHIBITED Do not use your watch while diving when the following occur. • The insufficient recharging warning feature is activated. As the battery approaches the end of its life, the second hand begins to move in 2 second increments. (When this happens, expose the watch to light so that it recharges and the second hand returns to normal movement. ) • The watch stops or exhibits any abnormal operation. 10.
* Please check that the second hand is moving properly. If the second hand is moving at two-second intervals, this means that the watch is not sufficiently charged. Sufficiently charge the watch when this occurs. * Never attempt to turn or pull out the crown underwater. This can cause defective water resistance or other malfunction. * Be careful to avoid bumping your watch on hard objects such as diving equipment or rocks. 11.
Determination of Remaining Time * The remaining time can be determined by aligning the ▼ mark on the rotating bezel with the target time. Remaining time 12. Adjusting length with the Extension Band (Model No.BJ8040-01E, BJ8050-08E only) * When wearing the watch over a wetsuit and so forth, and the length of the standard band is not long enough, attach the extension band provided to adjust the length of the band.
13. Precautions For correct use within the design limits of the watch, confirm the level of waterresistance of your watch, as indicated on the dial and case, and consult the table. CAUTION: Water-resistance performance There are several types of water-resistant watches, as shown in the following table. The unit "bar" is roughly equal to 1 atmosphere. * WATER RESIST(ANT) xx bar may also be indicated as W.R. xx bar. Specifications Minor exposure to water (washing face, rain, etc.
CAUTION CAUTION: Keep your watch clean. • Be sure to use the watch with the crown pressed in (normal position). If your watch has a screw-type crown, be sure to tighten the crown completely. • Do NOT operate the crown with wet fingers or when the watch is wet. Water may enter the watch and compromise water-resistance. • If the watch is used in seawater, rinse with fresh water afterward and wipe with a dry cloth.
CAUTION: Operating environment • Use the watch within the operating-temperature range specified in the instruction manual. Using the watch where temperatures are outside the specified range, may result in deterioration of functions or even stoppage of the watch. • Do NOT use the watch in places where it is exposed to high temperature, such as in a sauna. Doing so may result in a skin burn.
