Note:
• During the time the secondary battery is fully charged and the overcharging pre-
vention feature is operating, the power save feature does not operate even when
power generation is interrupted as a result of not exposing the solar cell to light.
Similarly, the power save feature will also not operate when the secondary bat-
tery has temporarily become fully charged as a result of exposure to intense
light.

<Power Save Feature>
When power is no longer generated as a result of light not shining on the solar cell
when the watch is in the time/calendar mode or local time mode, the second hand
moves to the 0 seconds position and stops to save power by reducing current con-
sumption.
The 24 hour hand, hour hand and minute hand continue to keep the correct time
even though the second hand is stopped. Furthermore, the calendar is corrected in
coordination with the 24 hour hand, hour hand and minute hand.
• During normal hand movement, when power generation is resumed after the
second hand stops at the 0 seconds position, the
second hand is rapidly advanced to the current
seconds and begins one-second interval move-
ment. However, when the insufficient charging
warning feature has been activated, the second
hand moves to the CHARGE position and stops,
and when the time setting warning feature has
been activated, it moves to the SET position and
stops. When the watch has stopped, the second
hand moves to the STOP position and remains
stopped.
