Precautionary items and usage limitations
Precautionary items and usage limitations
<Magnetism>
• Do not allow the watch to come into close proximity to magnetic health devices (magnetic
necklaces, magnetic elastic bands, etc.) or the magnets used in the latches of refrigerator doors,
clasps used in handbags, the speaker of a cell phone, electromagnetic cooking devices and so on.
<Strong Shock>
• Avoid dropping the watch or subjecting it to other strong impact. It may cause malfunctions
and/or performance deterioration as well as damage to the case and bracelet.
<Chemicals, Corrosive Gasses and Mercury>
• If paint thinner, benzene or other solvents or products containing these solvents (including
gasoline, nail-polish remover, cresol, bathroom cleaners and adhesives, water repellent, etc.)
are allowed to come into contact with the watch, they may discolor, dissolve or crack the
materials. Be careful when handling these chemicals. Contact with mercury such as that used
in thermometers may also cause discoloration of the band and case.
<Protective Stickers>
• Be sure to remove any protective stickers that may be on your watch (case back, band, clasp,
etc.). Otherwise, perspiration or moisture may enter the gaps between the protective stickers
and the parts, which may result in a skin rash and/or corrosion of the metal parts.
