A. BEFORE USING 

This watch is an analog solar-powered watch having a transparent solar cell
located beneath the crystal that converts light energy into electrical energy to
power the watch.

Before using, expose the watch (solar cell) to light to make sure it is
sufficiently charged.
Since it takes time to recharge the watch until it starts running again
once it has stopped, try to make sure the watch is charged everyday.

If the watch has stopped running, expose it to intense light such as

sunlight to recharge.  When recharging using light of low illuminance of
3,000 lx or less, pull out the crown before charging.  After charging,
always make sure to correctly set the time and return the crown to the
normal position before using the watch. 

A secondary battery is used in this watch to store electrical energy. This
secondary battery is a clean energy battery which does not use any toxic
substances such as mercury. Once fully charged, the watch will continue
to run for about 4.5 months without further charging.
To use this watch comfortably, make sure that the watch is always recharged
before it stops.
There is no risk of overcharging this watch. (Overcharge Prevention Function is
included) 

B. SETTING THE TIME

For models in which the crown is provided with a cover, open the crown cover to
set the time.  Once the time has been set, securely close the crown cover.
