■CAUTIONS ON WATER RESISTANCE CAUTIONS Do not turn or pull out the crown when the watch is wet. Water may get inside of the watch. ※ If the inner surface of the glass is clouded with condensation or water droplets appear inside of the watch for a long time, the water resistant performance of the watch is deteriorated. Immediately consult the retailer from whom the watch was purchased or SEIKO CUSTMER SERVICE CENTER. Do not leave moisture, sweat and dirt on the watch for a long time. Be aware of a risk that a water resistant watch may lessen its water resistant performance because of deterioration of the adhesive on the glass or gasket, or the development of rust on stainless steel. Do not wear the watch while taking a bath or a sauna. Steam, soap or some components of a hot spring may accelerate the deterioration of water resistant performance of the watch. If water-resistant level of your watch is defined as"WATER RESISTANT" WARNING Do not use the watch in scuba diving or saturation diving. The various tightened inspections under simulated harsh environment, which are usually required for watches designed for scuba diving or saturation diving, have not been conducted on the water-resistant watch with the BAR (barometric pressure) display. For diving, use special watches for diving. CAUTION Do not pour running water directly from the faucet. The water pressure of tap water from a faucet is high enough to degrade the water resistant performance of a water resistant watch for everyday life. 10 English If water-resistant level of your watch is defined as"AIR DIVER'S" WARNING ○ Never use the watch in saturation diving using helium gas. ○ While diving, never operate the watch in any other manner than described in this instruction manual. CAUTION Before using the diver's watch, you have to be properly trained in various types of diving and possess the requisite experience and skill to dive safely. When diving, strictly abide by the rules of diving. Precautions for diving ○ Before diving Inspect the following items before diving. ① ⇒"NAMES OF THE PARTS"page 13. ① The time is correctly set. ② The power reserve indicator shows the level of remaining power not less than one-half. If the remaining power shows less than one-half, turn the crown to wind the mainspring. ⇒"How to read the power reserve ② indicator"page 17. ③ ⇒"How to wind the main spring" page 18. ③ The rotating bezel turns smoothly. (The bezel rotation must not be too loose or too tight.) ⇒"Unidirectional rotating bezel" page 33. ④ The crown is completely screwed in. ⇒"Screw-lock type crown"page 16. ⑤ No abnormalities such as flaws or cracks exist on the band or glass. ④ ⑥ The band is reliably fixed with spring bars, buckles or other parts. ⑥ ⑤ CAUTION If you notice any abnormalities, contact the retailer from whom the watch was purchased or SEIKO CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER.
