When wearing the Z1, make sure that its face is not blocked from light by the sleeve of your clothing. If the dial (solar panel) is partially hidden, power generation efficiency will be reduced.
4-4. Insufficient Charge or out of Charge You can get an idea of the Z1's power level by observing the battery power indicator[H][M][L] on the lower display. •When the charge amount decreases, the functions that can be used are limited. When charging becomes insufficient, please charge by lighting the dial (solar panel).
Since sensors of the Z1 would not function when power level becomes [L], dive is not allowed. Suppose you started dive with the power level [M], and it becomes [L] while dive, no information related to the dive is shown anymore.
