unavoidable.

accidental ingestion. If the secondary battery is ingested, consult a doctor
immediately.

Doing so could cause a fire or environmental damage. Follow the collection
procedures as specified by your local authority.

CAUTION
Charging precautions
j Do not charge the watch in a high-temperature environment (about 60°C/140°F
or more).
Overheating while charging can cause the watch exterior to become discolored,
the watch to deform or the movement to be damaged.
Example:
• Charging close to incandescent lighting, halogen lamps, or other lighting
sources that easily become hot.
• Charging on surfaces that can easily become hot, such as a car dashboard.
j When charging with incandescent lighting, halogen lamps, or other lighting
sources that easily become hot, place the watch at least 50 cm (20 in.) away
from the source to avoid overheating.
