English REMARKS ON THE KINETIC E.S.U. q Do not pull the crown out to the second click with the intention of stopping the second hand just to save energy. By doing so, a large amount of current flows through the built-in IC. Therefore, pulling out the crown to the second click will not save energy but, in fact, consume more energy than usual. CAUTION Never install a silver oxide battery for conventional watches in place of the KINETIC E.S.U. The battery may burst, become very hot or catch fire. ENERGY DEPLETION FOREWARNING FUNCTION q When the second hand starts moving at two-second intervals instead of the normal onesecond intervals, the watch will run down in approximately 12 hours. * If the second hand starts moving at two-second intervals while the stopwatch is in use, the watch will run down in approximately 1 to 2 hours assuming the stopwatch remains in use. In this case, swing the watch from side to side to sufficiently charge the KINETIC E.S.U. 6

REMARKS ON THE KINETIC E.S.U.
Do not pull the crown out to the second click with the intention of stopping the second hand
just to save energy.
By doing so, a large amount of current flows through the built-in IC.
Therefore, pulling out the crown to the second click will not save energy but, in fact,
consume more energy than usual.
CAUTION
Never install a silver oxide battery for conventional watches in place of the
KINETIC E.S.U.
The battery may burst, become very hot or catch fire.
ENERGY DEPLETION FOREWARNING FUNCTION
When the second hand starts moving at two-second intervals instead of the normal one-
second intervals, the watch will run down in approximately 12 hours.
*
If the second hand starts moving at two-second intervals while the stopwatch is in use, the watch will
run down in approximately 1 to 2 hours assuming the stopwatch remains in use.
In this case, swing the watch from side to side to sufficiently charge the KINETIC E.S.U.
