7. Notes on Recharge
Avoid recharging at high temperatures (over about 60"C/140'F), otherwise the watch will be
damaged during recharging.
(EG)
•
Charging the watch near a light source that easily becomes hot, such as an
incandescent lamp or a halogen lamp.
•
Charging in a place that easily becomes hot, such as a dashboard.
When you charge the watch by an incandescent lamp, take a distance about 50cm (20in.) from
the light source to prevent any damage to the movement or any components from the high
temperature radiated by incandescent light bulbs.
Please note that if the user wears long sleeves, the watch can easily become
insufficiently charged as it is hidden from light. Be sure to expose your watch to light
daily for a period sufficient to maintain a proper charge.
