Functions of the Solar Power Watch If the charge becomes insufficient, a warning function will operate and the display changes, as below. • Insufficient Charge Warning Function The second hand changes to two-secondinterval movement to indicate insufficient recharging. Even in such a case, the watch keeps correct time, but about 1 week after twosecond-interval movement begins, the watch will stop.

Return to Table of Contents 7. Notes on Recharge Avoid recharging at high temperatures (over about 60"C/140'F), otherwise the watch will be damaged during recharging. (EG) • Charging the watch near a light source that easily becomes hot, such as an incandescent lamp or a halogen lamp. • Charging in a place that easily becomes hot, such as a dashboard. When you charge the watch by an incandescent lamp, take a distance about 50cm (20in.

Return to Table of Contents Water Resistance The water-resistant quality of our timepieces is offered in varying degrees depending on the model. This ranges from non-water resistant models to those suitable for SCUBA diving. Water resistance of our timepieces is measured in BAR or Barometric Pressure. Each BAR of pressure is equal to 14.5 pounds per square inch of pressure. Water resistance is measured when the watch is at a static, or motionless state.
