Seiko 5J22, 5J32 manual Remarks on the Kinetic E.S.U, Precaution

Page 8

English

Wearing the watch continuously for 12 hours will accumulate approximately one and a

half additional days of power reserve.

 

 

If you wear the watch every day for 12 hours over a period of a week, approximately 10

 

days of power reserve will be secured in the KINETIC E.S.U., which will keep the watch

 

operating for approximately 2 months when the hands are stopped by the power save

 

function.

 

 

Precautions for those only wearing the watch occasionally

If you use the watch only occasionally, it is likely that, when you decide to use it, you will find the hands have stopped and the power save function has been activated. Before wearing the watch, be sure to use the time relay function to awaken the watch following the procedure in “How to activate the time relay function”.

*To use the power reserve more efficiently, it is recommended that the manual power save function be used as often as possible when you remove the watch from your wrist.

REMARKS ON THE KINETIC E.S.U.

Precaution

Do not pull the crown out to the second click to stop the hands with the intention of saving the energy stored in the KINETIC E.S.U. By doing so, a large amount of current flows through the built-in IC, and therefore, pulling out the crown will not save energy but actually consume more energy than usual. Instead, use the manual power save function to conserve the power

14reserve.

CAUTION

English

 

Never install a silver oxide battery for conventional watches in place of the KINETIC

 

E.S.U. The battery may burst, become very hot or catch fire.
