1. Features
This is an analog solar-powered watch that is equipped with a solar cell incorporated in its face
to convert solar energy into electricity. The watch is also equipped with the large and highly
visible date indicator and the fan-shape 24-hour dial.
2. Before Using
Sufficiently Recharge by
Placing in Light Before Use
A secondary battery is used in this watch to store electrical energy. This secondary battery
is a clean energy battery that does not contain mercury or other toxic substances. Once fully
charged, the watch will continue to run for about 6 months without additional charging.
<How to use this Solar Watch Properly>
To use this watch comfortably, make sure to recharge the watch before it stops running
completely. Since there is no risk of overcharging (Overcharging Prevention Feature), it is
recommended that the watch be recharged everyday.

7. Special Functions of Solar-Powered Watches
This watch is provided with a function that causes a warning function to be activated when the
watch is sufficiently charged that alters the display to inform the wearer of insufficient charge.
When the watch is exposed to light,the Quick Start Function will begin operating and the
second hand will start moving. The correct time can be set once the watch is fully charged.
If insufficiently chargeed state (2-second interval
movement) continues for 3 days or more

<Insufficient Recharging Warning Feature>
The second hand changes to two-second interval movement to inform the wearer of insufficient
recharging. Although the watch will keep the correct time when this happens, the watch will
stop when two-second interval movement continues for about 3 days. Place the watch in light to
recharge. The watch will return to one-second interval movement.
<Quick Start Feature>
The watch will stop when it is completely discharged. When placed in light, the hand will begin
to move after about 10 seconds. (The time until the hands begin to move varies according to
the model and brightness of the light.) Please note that if the light is blocked, the watch may
stop again as a result of being insufficiently recharged.
<Overcharging Prevention Feature>
When the secondary battery is fully charged, the overcharging prevention feature is activated
to prevent further recharging.This enables the wearer to recharge without risk of damage to
the watch.
