Please avoid leaving your watch in direct sunlight, at very warm or cold locations
for long periods.

Do not use the buttons if the watch is wet or damp.
4. Avoid heavy impacts
This watch is able to withstand all impacts that occur during normal use. However,
you should avoid dropping your watch on the ground or exposing it to excessive
shocks in other ways. Improper treatment of your watch can suspend the waterre-
sistance.
5. Avoid strong magnetic fields
Keep your watch out of the imenediate area of strong magnetic fields. In general
however, the function of your watch is not impaired by the magnetic fields emitted
by domestic appliances, TV sets or stereo equipment.
6. Avoid strong chemicals, solvents and gases
Do not wear your watch in the vicinity of strong chemicals, solvents or noxious gases.
If your watch comes into contact with substances containing petrols, paint thinners,
alcohols, cosmetic sprays, nail varnishs, nail varnish removers, adhesives, paints or
paint strippers, this could impair the quality of or damage the case, strap, bracelet or
other components of the watch.

7. Keep your watch clean
Use a soft, clean cloth to wipe off all traces of water and moisture on the case, glass,
strap or bracelet. Dirt of any type on the case, strap or bracelet could result in slight
skin rashes. A watch bracelet or strap accumulates dirt to do perperation and contact
with the skin. Even a stainless steel or gold-plated brace let could start to corrode
if it is not cleaned for long periods. Woven straps may loose their special flexibility
and become less attractive if they are soiled. They should therefore be washed
from time to time. Metal bracelets should normally be washed with a brush in mild,
soapy water and dried with a soft, absorbent cloth. After doing this, ensure that all
water has been removed. Please ensure that no water penetrates the inside of the
watch when you wash the strap or bracelet.
8. Periodic inspection
We advise you to have the watch inspected every 2 to 3 years in order to maintain it
in perfect working order for many years.

Be sure to keep batteries and parts of the watch out of reach of infants and
small children. Should accidental ingestion occur, consult a doctor at once.
