Note:
• The watch will continue to operate for about 7 months without additional charging

once it has been fully charged.  It will continue to keep time for about 1.5 years when
the Power Save feature has been activated.  However, once the watch has stopped as a
result of being insufficiently charged, a considerable amount of time is required until
it starts to run again as indicated in the table above.  It is therefore recommended to
charge your watch everyday.  Furthermore, it is recommended to charge your watch
by exposing to direct sunlight once a month.  

<Try to keep the watch charged at all times.>
Please note that if you frequently wear long sleeves, the watch can easily become
insufficiently charged because of being hidden and not exposed to light.  
• When you take the watch off, try to place in as bright a location as possible so that it

will always be charged and continue to run properly at all times.

• Avoid charging the watch at high temperatures (about 60°C/140°F or higher) since

allowing the watch to reach a high temperature during charging can cause
deformation or discoloration of the dial, solar cell and other external components as
well as a malfunction of mechanical components.  

Examples: Charging by placing the watch too close to a light source that may

become hot such as an incandescent lamp or halogen lamp, or charging
by placing the watch on an automobile dashboard that can easily reach a
high temperature.

• When charging the watch with an incandescent lamp, halogen lamp or other light

source that may reach a high temperature, always make sure to place the watch at
least 50 cm (20 in) away from the light source to prevent the watch from reaching a
high temperature.
