Citizen C45 Instruction Manual page 14

Cleaning the Watch
• Use a soft cloth to wipe off dirt, perspiration and water from the case and
crystal.
• Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe off perspiration and dirt from the leather band.
• To clean a metal, plastic, or rubber watchband, wash away dirt with mild soap
and water. Use a soft brush to remove dust and dirt jammed in the gaps in the
metal band. If your watch is not water-resistant, take it to your dealer.
NOTE: Avoid using solvents (thinner, benzine, etc.), as they may damage the finish.
WARNING:
Handling of the battery
• Keep the battery out of the reach of small children. If a child swallows the
battery, contact a physician immediately.
CAUTION:
Replacing the battery
• For replacement of the battery, take your watch to your dealer or Citizen Service
Center.
• Replace the battery as soon as possible if the service life of the battery has
expired. Leaving a depleted battery in the watch may result in leakage, which
can damage the watch severely.

CAUTION:
Operating environment
• Use the watch within the operating-temperature range specified in the
instruction manual.
Using the watch where temperatures are outside the specified range, may result
in deterioration of functions or even stoppage of the watch.
• Do NOT use the watch in places where it is exposed to high temperature, such
as in a sauna.
Doing so may result in a skin burn.
• Do NOT leave the watch in a place where it is exposed to high temperature,
such as the glove compartment or dash-board of a car.
Doing so may result in deterioration of the watch, such as deformation of plastic
parts.
• Do NOT place the watch close to a magnet.
Timekeeping will become inaccurate if you place the watch close to magnetic
health equipment such as a magnetic necklace or a magnetic latch of a
refrigerator door or handbag clasp or the earphone of a mobile phone. If this has
occurred, move the watch away from the magnet and reset the time.
