7.NOTES REGARDING USE OF THIS WATCH  

 
<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 as a result of it being concealed and unable to be exposed 
to light.  
When you take the watch off, try to place it in as bright a location as possible 
to ensure that it always keeps the correct time.  

CAUTION - Charging Precautions -  

Avoid recharging at high temperatures (over about 60'C/140'F) since this may 
result in dam- age to the watch during recharging.  
Examples:  

• 

Charging the watch in close proximity to an incandescent lamp, halogen lamp 
or other light source that can easily reach high temperatures.  

• 

Charging the watch in a location that reaches high temperatures such as on 
a car dashboard.  

• 

When charging the watch with an incandescent lamp, always make sure the 
watch is at least 50 cm (20 in.) away from the lamp so that it does not 
reach excessively high temperatures during charging.
