1. Features This watch is a solar-powered watch that contains a solar cell in its face that drives the watch by converting light energy into electrical energy. It is equipped with numerous functions including a daily alarm function that be set based on a 24-hour clock, and a chronograph function that allows measurement of time in 1/20 second unit up to 59 minutes 59.95 seconds. 2. Before Using This watch is a solar-powered watch. Please fully charge the watch before using by exposing it to light.

When the capacity of the secondary battery decreases as a result of the watch not being exposed to light after though the insufficient charge warning feature has been activated, the watch will stop due to being insufficiently charged. When this happens, sufficiently charge the watch by exposing to light so that it returns to the normal time display (1-second interval movement).
The overcharging prevention feature is activated when the secondary battery is fully charged so that it is not charged further.
5. General Reference for Charging Times 6. Notes Regarding Handling of this Watch The time required for recharging varies according to the model of the watch (color of the dial, etc.). The following times are shown below to serve only as a reference. * Recharging time refers to the amount of time the watch is continuously exposed to light.
7. Replacing the Secondary Battery 8. Switching the Mode (Display Function) Unlike ordinary silver-based batteries, the secondary battery used in this watch does not have to be periodically replaced since it is able to be charged and discharged repeatedly. This watch is equipped with four modes consisting of time/calendar, chronograph, alarm 1 and alarm 2. The mode changes when the crown is turned. The current mode can be confirmed with the mode hand.
9. Hand 0-Position Check and Correction Before using this watch, check that the functions of the watch operate properly by performing the following procedure. 0-Position: This refers to the base position of each hand for enabling this watch to function properly. .0 24 18 .8 6 .2 .6 TME C -2 A L -1 .4 1 (1) -2 H A L-1 C R HR AL 12 L TME A 0-position correction 20 [0-Position Check] 1. Turn the crown to switch the watch to the chronograph [CHR] mode. 2.
Note: • Turning the crown by one revolution to the left causes the function hand to advance continuously (make four revolutions) and the date to be corrected by one day. 0-Position Correction of 24 Hour Hand, Hour Hand, Minute Hand and Second Hand: 1. Pull the crown out to Position 2 in the chronograph [CHR] mode to correct each of the hands. (1) Press button (A) to align the second hand at the 0 seconds position. • Pressing button (A) causes the second hand to advance by one second each time it is pressed.

left. When the continuous advance of the hands is not stopped manually, they stop automatically after advancing by 12 hours. • During the time correction, the date does not change even if the hands pass 12:00 AM. Refer to the section on “Setting the Date” for the procedure for correcting the date. 4. Return the crown to the normal position in synchronization with a telephone time signal or other time service. [Setting the Date] The calendar function used by this watch is based on a 31-day month.
1. Turn the crown to switch the watch to the time/calendar [TME] mode. 2. Pull the crown out to Position 1 (date correction position). 3. Turn the crown to the left to set the date. (1) Turning the crown to the left causes the function hand to make four revolutions and the date to be corrected by one day. • The date is corrected one day at a time. The date will not change continuously even if the crown is turned continuously.
11. Using the Chronograph The chronograph is able to measure time up to a maximum of 59 minutes 59.95 seconds in 1/20th second unit, after which it resets to 0 seconds.

[Chronograph Measurement] 1. Turn the crown to set the mode hand to the chronograph [CHR] mode. 2. Press button (A) to start and stop the chronograph. A confirmation tone is heard whenever button (A) is pressed. 3. Continuously pressing button (A) when the chronograph is stopped causes the chronograph second hand and chronograph minute hand to be reset to the 0position (12:00 position). 12.
[Setting the Alarm Time] 1. Turn the crown to set the mode hand to the Alarm 1 [AL-1] or Alarm 2 [AL-2] mode. • Second hand: Moves rapidly to the ON position (42 seconds) or OFF position (38 seconds). • 24 hour hand, hour hand, minute hand: Move to the previously set alarm time. • Function hand: Stops at the 0-position. 2. Pull the crown out to Position 2 (alarm setting position). • The alarm setting is turned ON automatically. 3. Turn the crown to set the alarm time.

When this happens, perform the All-Reset and Base Position Alignment procedures described below.
• Following a confirmation tone, each hand performs a demonstration movement in the order of the function hand, 24 hour hand, hour hand, minute hand and second hand to indicate that the all-reset procedure is finished. This completes the all-reset procedure. Next, perform the base position alignment procedure. Note: • Do not press in the crown to the normal position until the base alignment procedure has finished following the all-reset procedure. 38 [Base Position Alignment Following All-Reset] 1.
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. 14. Precautions CAUTION: Water-resistance performance There are several types of water-resistant watches, as shown in the following table. Examples of use The unit "bar" is roughly equal to 1 atmosphere. * WATER RESIST(ANT) xx bar may also be indicated as W.R. xx bar.
• Water-resistance for daily use (to 3 atmospheres): This type of watch is waterresistant to minor exposure to water. For example, you may wear the watch while washing your face; however, it is not designed for use underwater. • Upgraded water-resistance for daily use (to 5 atmospheres): This type of watch is water-resistant to moderate exposure to water. You may wear the watch while swimming; however, it is not designed for use while skin diving.
• Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe off perspiration and dirt from the leather band. • To clean a metal, plastic, or rubber watchband, wash away dirt with mild soap and water. Use a soft brush to remove dust and dirt jammed in the gaps in the metal band. If your watch is not water-resistant, take it to your dealer. NOTE: Avoid using solvents (thinner, benzine, etc.), as they may mar the finish.
