Page 13: In These Cases
G. IN THESE CASES [If the watch warns that the energy is running short] The second hand starts moving at two second intervals in order to warn that the watch will stop functioning after about 1 week. (Insufficient Charge Warning Function) In such a case, expose your watch to light for a while to cancel the warning. (The second hand returns to moving at one second intervals when the energy is recharged.) If the watch is left short of energy, it will stop functioning... - Page 14 [If the watch warns you to set the time.] When the watch that has stopped is exposed to light, the second hand starts two second interval movement (Quick Start Function). The time elapsed before the second hand starts moving depends on the illuminance of the light. Even so, the second hand continues the two second interval movement to tell you that the watch indicates an incorrect time because it had stopped.
