CAUTION
To Avoid Injury
• Be particularly careful when wearing your watch while holding a small child, to avoid injury.
• Be particularly careful when engaged in strenuous exercise or work, to avoid injury to yourself
and others.
• Do NOT wear your watch while in a sauna or other location where your watch may become
excessively hot, since there is the risk of burns.
• Be careful when putting on and taking off your watch, since there is a risk of damaging your
fingernails, depending on the manner in which the band is fastened.
• Take off your watch before going to bed.
CAUTION
Precautions
• Always use the watch with the crown pushed in (normal position). If the crown is of the screw
lock-type, make sure it is securely locked.
• Do NOT operate the crown or any push buttons when the watch is wet. Water may enter the
watch causing damage to vital components.
• If water enters the watch or the watch fogs up and does not clear up even after a long time,
consult your dealer or Authorized Service Center for inspection and/or repair.
Precautionary items and usage limitations
Precautionary items and usage limitations
• Even if your watch has a high level of water resistance, please be careful of the following.
•
If your watch is immersed in sea water, rinse thoroughly with fresh water and wipe with a dry cloth.
• Do not pour water from a tap directly onto your watch.
• Take off your watch before taking a bath.
• If seawater enters the watch, place the watch in a box or plastic bag and immediately take it in for
repair. Otherwise, pressure inside the watch will increase, and parts (crystal, crown, push button,
etc.) may come off.
CAUTION
When Wearing Your Watch
<Band>
• Leather, genuine skin and rubber (urethane) bands will deteriorate over time due to perspiration,
body oils and dirt. Be sure to replace the band periodically.
• The durability of a leather band may be affected when wet (fading, peeling of adhesive), owing
to the properties of the material. Moreover, wet leather may cause a rash.
• It is recommended to take off the watch if it gets wet, even if the watch itself is water-resistant.
• Do Not wear the band too tightly. Try to leave enough space between the band and your skin to
allow adequate ventilation.
•
The rubber (urethane) band may be stained by dyes or soil present in or on clothing or other accessories.
Since these stains may not be removable, caution is required when wearing your watch with items that
tend to easily transfer color (articles of clothing, purses, etc.). In addition, the band may be deteriorated
by solvents or moisture in the air. Replace with a new one when it has lost elasticity or become cracked.
