Shifting the Hands

Hand shift moves the hands out of the way for
easy viewing of display info.
1.
Press (A).
This will shift the hands to allow easier
reading of face information.
2.
To return the hands to their normal
timekeeping positions, press (A) or (D), or
press (C) to change to another mode.
Note
If you leave the watch with its hands
shifted and do not perform any
operation for about ten seconds, the
hands will resume normal timekeeping
automatically.

Solar Charging

This watch runs on power supplied from a
rechargeable (secondary) battery that is
charged by a solar panel. The solar panel is
integrated into the face of the watch, and
power is generated whenever the face is
exposed to light.
Charging the Watch
When you are not wearing the watch, put it in
a location where it is exposed to bright light.
While you are wearing the watch, make sure
that its face (solar panel) is not blocked from
light by the sleeve of your clothing. Power
generation efficiency is reduced even when
the face of the watch is blocked only partially.
YES
NO
Important!
Depending on light intensity and local
conditions, the watch may become hot
to the touch when exposed to light for
charging. Take care to avoid burn
injury after charging. Also, avoid
charging the watch under high-
temperature conditions like the ones
described below.
On the dashboard of a vehicle
ー 
parked in the sun
Near an incandescent light bulb or
ー 
other source of heat
Under direct sunlight or in other hot
ー 
areas for long periods
Remaining Charge and Dead Battery
You can determine if the charge level is low by
checking the hand movement. Functions
become disabled as battery power goes low.
Important!
Should the battery go low or go dead,
expose the face (solar panel) to light as
soon as possible.
Note
Exposing the watch face to light after
the battery goes dead will cause the
second hand to revolve
counterclockwise until it stops at
second 57. This indicates charging
has started.
Low Battery Power
The second hand jumps at two-second
intervals.
