CHECKING THE SOLAR POWER GENERATION SYSTEM

<How to check the solar power generation with the watch>
1)  Remove the RECHARGEABLE BATTERY UNIT from the 

watch.

2)  Pull out the crown to the 2nd click in order to reset the 

circuit. 

3)  Connect the (-) probe and (+) probe as illustrated.

*   When measuring the voltage using the SEIKO digital 

multi-tester (S-860), use the range of V.

4)  Expose the watch to the light of a fluorescent lamp (use 

the one with 15 to 20 watts) at a distance of 5-10 cm 
while connecting the probes to the watch. 

5)  Read the measurement and check if it exceeds 1.8 V.
