This is based on a standard use pattern of five times (within 20 seconds, including also the
preliminary warning) of a two hour count every day with the TIME-UP MESSAGE set to VIBRATION.
When the timer is used more than this the battery may run out before the above time (3 years) is
reached.
You need to be particularly careful when you set the repeat number to a LARGE NUMBER OR
*
INFINITE and the select VIBRATION as the TIME-UP WARNING.

4. Battery Change
A For battery replacement, be sure to have the battery replaced with a new one at the retailer from whom the watch
was purchased, and specify a genuine battery. B If the old battery is left in the watch for a long time, a malfunction
may be caused due to battery leakage, etc. Have it replaced with a new one as soon as possible. C Battery
replacement is charged even if it runs down within the guaranteed period. D Once the case back is opened for battery
replacement or other purpose, the original water resistant quality designed for the watch may deteriorate when it is
closed. When you have the battery replaced with a new one, also request the water resistant test pertaining to the
water resistant quality of your watch. If your watch has 10-bar or higher water resistant quality, be sure to have such
test performed on the watch every time the battery is replaced. Please note that it takes several days to check the
water resistant quality of your watch. When requesting the checking, therefore, please check the period required for it.
When the battery is taken out of the timekeeper, keep it out of reach of children.
