Synchronization
This operation can only be performed visually, and it enables you to synchro-
nize the hands to the vibration signals. To do this :
– Press the button (3) for more than 2 seconds.
– Sense a first vibration.
– By holding your finger down on the button (3), sense a second vibration
after 10 seconds.
– Position the hour hand at 12 o'clock by placing a finger on the crystal (5) at
9 or 10 o'clock to move the hour hand anticlockwise or at 2 or 3 o'clock to
move the same hand in a clockwise direction.
– Position the minute hand at 12 o'clock by placing a finger on the crystal (5)
at 7 or 8 o'clock to move the minute hand anticlockwise or at 4 or 5 o'clock
to move the same hand in a clockwise direction.
Please note : After 10 seconds when the Silen-T is not in use, the hands
once again show the correct time and a single press on the button (3)
activates the touch-sensitive crystal (5), regardless of the function previously
used. After 8 minutes of operation without the button (3) being pulled out, the
Silen-T moves into " standby " mode (power-saving mode).
Care and maintenance
We would advise you to clean your watch regularly (except for the leather
strap) using a soft cloth and warm soapy water. After immersion in salty
water, rinse it in fresh water and leave it to dry completely.
Ensure that you do not leave it to dry in places subject to great variations in
temperature and humidity, in direct sunlight or near strong magnetic fields.

quartz watches benefit from the incomparable precision of quartz
movements. Their power reserve usually enables them to operate for more
than 2 years in continuous use. If you ever plan not to be wearing your watch
for a period of several weeks, or even several months, we would advise
you to pull out the button before putting your watch away (3). This reduces
the level of electrical power drawn off by the motor, thereby substantially
extending the service life of the batteries.
Replacing the batteries
When your batteries are approaching the end of their useful service life, this
is signalled to you with two vibrations each time you handle the watch. The
first of these is short, and the second is longer (E.O.L. function). The 2 batte-
ries need to be replaced simultaneously without delay by either a retailer or
an official TISSOT
®
agent.

Used batteries, watch components and electronic watches should
not be disposed in litters, but correctly recycled according to local
regulations. We recommend you to return such parts to your nearest
dealer.
