BEFORE INITIAL USE

POWER SAVE FUNCTION

This watch is powered by electrical energy generated and stored by the built-in

Kinetic System. The watch also features the “power save function,” which

automatically stops the hands from moving when the watch is not in use for a

certain period of time to minimize the electrical energy consumption. When the

watch is in power save mode, the hands stop moving but the built-in IC continues

to calculate the time and calendar.

When the watch is in power save mode, swinging the watch several times will

activate the “time relay function,” which automatically resets the watch hands
