■ Maintenance
Daily maintenance
• Rotate the crown while it is pressed in fully and press the buttons periodically so they do
not become stuck due to accumulations of foreign matter.
• Wipe off dirt, perspiration, and water from the case and glass with a clean soft cloth
occasionally.
• To clean a metal, plastic, or rubber watchband, wash away dirt with water. Use a soft
brush to remove dust and dirt stuck in the gaps in a metal band.
• Do not use a polishing type of cloth as this may damage the surface and certain
treatments.
• Do not use solvents (thinner, benzine, etc.), as they may damage the finish.
Periodical inspections
• Your watch needs an inspection once every two or three years for safety and longer
usage. To keep your watch water-resistant, the gaskets and other components need to
be replaced regularly. Other parts need to be inspected and replaced if necessary.
• Always ask for genuine Citizen parts upon replacement.
