Caution for charging
When charging the watch, do not place it too close to a photoflash
l
light, spotlight, incandescent light or other light sources as the watch
temperature will become extremely high, causing damage to the parts
inside the watch.
When exposing the watch to sunlight to charge it, do not leave it on the
l
dashboard of a car, etc., for a long time, as the watch temperature will
become extremely high.
While charging the watch, make sure the watch temperature does not
l
exceed 60 °C.
