When the watch has stopped operating, the second hand will start moving at 2-second intervals. 2 Keep the watch exposed to the light until the second hand moves at 1-second intervals. 3 When the watch is charged after it has completely stopped, set the date and time before wearing the watch. 34 #@&@@JOEE


 CAUTION Caution for charging ● When charging the watch, do not place it too close to a photoflash light, spotlight, incandescent light or other light sources as the watch temperature will become extremely high, causing damage to the parts inside the watch. ● When exposing the watch to sunlight to charge it, do not leave it on the dashboard of a car, etc., for a long time, as the watch temperature will become extremely high. ● While charging the watch, make sure the watch temperature does not exceed 60 °C. OVERCHARGING PREVENTION FUNCTION No matter how long the secondary battery is charged, the performance of the watch will not be degraded. When the secondary battery becomes fully charged, the overcharging prevention function will be automatically activated to prevent it from being charged further. 35 English
