<Replacement of Rechargeable Cell>
• This watch utilizes a special rechargeable cell that does not require periodical replacement.
However, power consumption may increase after using the watch for a number of years due
to wear of internal components and deterioration of oils. This may cause stored power to
be depleted at a faster rate. For optimal performance, we recommend having your watch
inspected every 2-3 years for proper operation and condition check.
WARNING
• The rechargeable cell should never be removed from the watch. If for any reason it becomes
necessary to remove the rechargeable cell from the watch, keep out of the reach of children
to prevent accidental swallowing. If the rechargeable cell is accidentally swallowed, consult a
doctor immediately.
• Do not dispose of the rechargeable cell with ordinary garbage. Please follow the instructions
of your municipality regarding collection of batteries to prevent the risk of fire or
environmental contamination.
WARNING
• Never use a battery other than the rechargeable cell specified for use in this watch. Although
the watch structure is designed so that it will not operate when another type of battery is
installed, if a conventional watch battery or other type of battery is installed in the watch
and the watch is recharged, there is the risk of overcharging which may cause the battery to
rupture. This can cause damage to the watch and injury to the wearer. When replacing the
rechargeable cell, always make sure to use the designated rechargeable cell.
