x
When the function hand indicates "NG" on the charging level index.
When the function hand indicates "NG" on the charging level, the watch will not
measure the depth. If the function hand points at "NG" on the charging level
during diving, immediately stop using the depth meter function of the watch
since the watch discontinues depth measurement in this condition.
x
When the watch stops running or malfunctions. (Be careful not to knock the
watch against hard things such as diving apparatus, rocks, etc.)
x
When the water temperature is out of the guaranteed range for measuring depth.
The accuracy of the depth meter function is guaranteed under the condition that
water temperature is b 1 O'C and +40'C (50'F and 104'F).
x
For the purpose of knowing a risk of a behavior or situation.
This watch is not designed to serve as a drowning prevention instrument or an
emergency instrument.
x
In the environment filled with helium gas (saturated diving, etc.).
Use of the watch in such conditions may cause failure or breakdown of the
watch.
<Circumstances that prohibit use of this watch in diving>
DO NOT use this watch for diving under the following circumstances.
<For safe diving>
•
When diving, obey the rules of the buddy system* every time.
• For safety, it is advised that you enjoy sports diving in the depths around 20 m
(60 ft).
• Before diving with this watch, fully charge the battery without fail. When the
battery is not sufficiently charged (the function hand points at "NG"), the depth
meter function cannot be used. If battery power declines considerably during diving,
the depth meter function to measure depth is discontinued.
• After diving, take a good rest following safety rules. If you take a plane or move
to a high place without a sufficient rest after diving, you may suffer from
decompression sickness (caisson disease).
*
Buddy system means that two divers pair with each other for safe diving
<During diving>
x
Avoid quick ascending, otherwise you may suffer from submarine sickness or
a functional disorder in some way. Whenever you ascend in water, carefully
keep a safe speed.
x
Don't disturb any push buttons or the crown except button (
B
) (for knowing
the memorized maximum depth) throughout the dive, otherwise the watch may
fail in water-resistance.
<After diving>
x
After confirming that the crown is screwed down tightly, wash out
seawater, mud, sand, etc. sticking to the watch, with fresh water. Then,
wipe off water and moisture with a dry soft cloth.
x
Neither remove the sensor cover nor pick at it with a sharp-point in
order to remove particles of dust, etc. collected in the sensor. If the
sensor part is packed with dust, etc., wash it out with fresh water. In
case it is difficult to wash out dust, consult the nearest Authorized
Citizen Service Center about the trouble.
