suffi ciently during this period, the analog hands will move automatically to the 
correct setting and regular timekeeping will resume. After one week, all settings 
(including timekeeping) will be cleared. Recharging the battery will reset all settings 
to their initial factory defaults.

Warning!
Leaving the watch in bright light for charging can cause it to become quite hot.

Important!

 Keep the watch in an area normally exposed to bright light when storing it for long 

 

x

periods. This helps to ensure that power does not run down.
 Storing the watch for long periods in an area where there is no light or wearing it in 

 

x

such a way that it is blocked from exposure to light can cause power to run down. 
Make sure that the watch is exposed to bright light whenever possible.

Charging the Watch

The face of the watch is a solar panel that generates power from light. The generated 
power charges a built-in rechargeable battery, which powers watch operations. The 
watch charges whenever it is exposed to light.

Charging Guide

Whenever you are not 
wearing the watch, leave 
it in a location where it is 
exposed to light.

 Best charging 

 

x

performance is achieved 
by exposing the watch to 
light that is as strong as 
possible.

When wearing the watch, 
make sure that its face is 
not blocked from light by the 
sleeve of your clothing.

 The watch may enter a 

 

x

sleep state (page E-11) if 
its face is blocked by your 
sleeve even only partially.
