English ■ How to read the direct drive indicator while charging the watch 1. Turn the crown clockwise. After approximately 1 second, the direct drive indicator hand starts moving. 2. Continue to turn the crown. The indicator hand moves upward and downward according to the power generation status. When further continuing to turn the crown, the point where the indicator hand starts moving goes up as the amount of generated power increases. If you temporarily stop turning the crown, the indicator hand goes down to display the accumulated power generated by the current power generation. 3. Stop turning the crown. The direct drive indicator hand returns to display the total amount of power reserve after approximately 4 seconds. ✽ After the crown is turned repeatedly, the indicator hand will stop at the maximum scale value ("M+1" position). If the crown is turned after the indicator hand stops at the "M+1" position, the watch continues to accumulate power reserve, but stops displaying the power generation status. If you want to display the power generation status, stop turning the crown, and after the indicator hand returns to display the power reserve, start turning the crown again. ✽ If turning the crown more quickly and in long strokes so that the indicator hand makes large movement, the generated power increases efficiently. ✽ Depending on intervals between turning the crown, the indicator hand may not move. This is not a malfunction. ✽ The watch is equipped with a system to prevent overcharge. Even if the crown is turned when the indicator hand points at the maximum scale value of power reserve, no malfunction 14
