To ensure optimal
performance
of the watch,
make sure that
the watch is
kept sufficiently
charged at all
time.
Under the following situations, the energy of the watch is likely to
be depleted, resulting in stoppage of the watch.
・ The watch is concealed under a sleeve.
・ The watch is used or stored under conditions where it cannot be
exposed to light for a long time.
※…When…charging…the…watch,…make…sure…that…the…watch…is…not…heated…to…a…high…
temperature.…(The…operational…temperature…range…is…between…-10…℃…and…+…60…℃.)
※…When…first…using…the…watch…or…starting…to…use…the…watch…after…it…has…stopped…because…of…
