* It is recommendable that you use the watch correctly following the mentioned scope of usage
after ascertaining water-resistance precautions marked on the dial face of the watch or on the
back of the watchcase.
(2) Shock
���
Be sure to take the watch off your wrist when you engage in
strenuous sports, whereas playing such light sports as golf,
etc., will not adversely influence the watch.
���
Avoid a violent shock such as dropping the watch on the floor.
(3) Magnetism
���
If the watch is left at a place near strong magnetism for an
extended period, the component parts can get magnetized,
resulting in a failure. Be careful.
���
The watch can temporarily gain or lose time when exposed to magnetism, but
it functions with original precision when it is put away from the magnetism. In
this case, correct the time.
(4) Vibration
���
The watch can lose time temporarily when it is exposed
to strong vibration while riding motorcycles or using jack-
hammers, chain saws, etc.
(5) Temperature
���
In the environment below and above the normal temperatures <5°C~35°C>,
the watch may malfunction and stop.
(6) Chemicals, Gasses, etc.
���
Utmost caution must be exercised for contacts with gasses, mercury, chemi-
cals (thinner, gasoline, various solvents, detergents containing such compo-
nents, adhesives, paints, drugs, perfume, cosmetics, etc.), and so forth. Such
contacts may cause the discoloration of a watchcase, a watchband, and a dial
face. The discoloration, deformation, and damage of various resin-based com-
ponent parts may also occur.
