7 How to charge the battery
This watch has a battery which is charged by exposing the dial to light such as direct
sunlight or fluorescent lamps.
To obtain the best performance:
• Expose the dial to direct sunlight for several hours at least once a month.
• After taking off the watch, put it where the dial is exposed to bright
light, such as by a window.
• Before storing the watch in a dark place for an extended period of
time, fully charge the battery.
Caution
• When the watch is covered with long sleeves, for example, the battery may
not be charged sufficiently. Try to keep the watch exposed to light even when
wearing the watch.
• Do not charge the battery at a high temperature (about 50˚C/122˚F or higher)
such as on the dashboard.
See page 32 for charging time.
