HOW TO CHARGE AND START THE WATCH
When using the watch for the first time after it is purchased, be sure to charge the
capacitor sufficiently by swinging the watch from side to side, and then put it on.
1. Swing the watch from side to side rhythmically at a rate of twice a second in the same
manner as you would swing a mechanical automatic winding watch.
2. After the watch is swung about 100 times, the second hand starts moving at one-
second intervals.
* There will be about 3 hours (Cal. 3M22) / 6 hours (Cal. 5M42/5M43) of power
reserve available.
3. Swing the watch further about 400 times (Cal. 3M22) / 300 to 400 times (Cal. 5M42/
5M43).
