HOW TO USE (For Cal. 9R84, 9R65, 9R15) How to wind the main spring ○ This watch is an automatic winding type (with manual winding function). ○ The mainspring can be sufficiently wound automatically by natural movement of the arm while it is worn on the wrist. In addition, the mainspring can be wound by turning the crown. Please see the power reserve indicator to check the level of the remaining power. ⇒"How to read the power reserve indicator"page 17. ○ When starting to use a stopped watch, it is recommended that you turn the crown to wind the mainspring. To wind the mainspring, turn the crown at the normal position clockwise (12 o'clock direction) slowly. If you turn the crown counterclockwise (6 o'clock direction), it will turn free. Five full rotations of the crown will provide the power to run the watch for approximately ten hours. ○ If you wear the watch for twelve hours per day consecutively for three to five days, the watch will be fully wound. ※ Under a low-temperature condition (below 0ºC), always keep at least one-sixth of the watch power shown by the power reserve indicator. CAUTIONS ○ Do not adjust the date when the time the watch indicates is between 9 p.m. and 1 a.m. If the date is adjusted in this condition, the date may not change properly the following day, or a malfunction may occur. ○ If you set the date when the time the watch indicates is between 9:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m., pull out the crown to the second click, and turn it counterclockwise (downward) to advance the hour hand until it passes 1:00 a.m. temporarily, and then set the date. How to set the time and date This watch is equipped with the date display function. The date advances one day once every 24 hours around midnight. Therefore, if AM/PM is incorrectly set, the date will change around noon. When setting the date and time, ensure that the watch is working. ① Pull out the crown to the first click. (If the watch is equipped with a screw-lock type crown, unscrew the crown before pulling it out.) ② The date can be adjusted by turning the crown counterclockwise (downward). First turn the crown until the previous day's date from  the desired date appears. 【Ex.】If you want to set the date to ''6,'' set the date to ''5'' by turning the crown. 'JSTU

Turn the crown counterclockwise (downward) to advance the hands until the desired date appears. If the date changes, it means that the watch is set in the morning. Turn the crown further until the watch is set to the current time. /PSNBM

DMJDL CAUTION For models with a screw-lock type crown, remember to screw the crown in. Tips for more accurate time setting To ensure effective operation of the Spring Drive mechanism, observe the following instructions when you set the time. ① Before setting the time, make sure to wind the mainspring sufficiently. (Ensure that the power reserve indicator is showing a full-wound state.) ② When starting to use a watch after it stops, wind the mainspring sufficiently. To set the time after that, wait for approximately 30 seconds after the second hand (or the small second hand) starts moving, then pull the crown out to the second click. ③ The second hand (or the small second hand) will stop moving when the crown is pulled out to the second click. Do not stop the movement of the second hand (or the small second hand) for longer than 30 minutes. If the stoppage of the second-hand (or the small-second-hand) movement exceeds 30 minutes, push the crown back in, and wait for approximately 30 seconds after the second hand (or the small second hand) restarts moving, and then set the time.
