<Insufficient Charging Warning Feature>

Regardless of the display of the watch at the time, when the watch becomes insufficiently
charged, the watch changes to the time display and the second hand moves to the CHARGE
position to inform the wearer that it is insufficiently charged.  After the second hand moves
to the CHARGE position, the watch changes to the time display in the order of the 24 hour
hand, hour hand, minute hand and date wheel (function hand).  Although the watch contin-
ues to keep time accurately at this time, the watch stops after about 5 days have elapsed
(roughly 2 days in the case the hands have been moved to switch the time when the insuffi-
cient charging warning feature is activated).  When this happens, charge the watch by
exposing to light so that it returns to one-second interval movement.  However, since the

time is incorrect when the watch is exposed to light and
changes to the insufficient charging warning display after it
has stopped due to insufficient charging, set the time after
sufficiently charging the watch.  

Notes:

• Chronograph measurement stops and the chronograph is

reset even when measurement is in progress.  

• The set time (time difference) is retained for the local time.
• The alarm will not sound even if it is set.  
• Crown (mode switching) and button operations will not

function.

<Time Setting Warning Feature>

When the watch is recharged by exposing to light after it has stopped, the second hand
moves to the SET position to inform the wearer that the time is incorrect.  Although the 24
hour hand, hour hand and minute hand will begin to move after the second hand moves to
the SET position, since the time is incorrect, reset the time and date after sufficiently charg-
ing the watch.  

Notes:

• Crown and button operations will not function except for time and calendar setting opera-

tions.

• When the crown is pulled out to position 2 (time correction position) in the time or date

setting mode, the time setting warning feature is canceled.
The second hand will remain stopped at the SET position
unless the crown is pulled out to position 2 and the time is
set.  

• In the case the watch has stopped due to insufficient charg-

ing, a minimum of 30 minutes are required until the watch
changes to the time setting warning display even if suffi-
ciently exposed to light. 

<Overcharging Prevention Feature>

The overcharging prevention feature is activated when the
secondary battery is fully charged so that it is not charged fur-
ther.
