7. Notes on Recharge
Avoid recharging at high temperatures (over about 60"C/140'F), otherwise the watch will be damaged during recharging.
(EG)
•Charging the watch near a light source that easily becomes hot, such as an incandescent lamp or a halogen lamp.
•Charging in a place that easily becomes hot, such as a dashboard.
When you charge the watch by an incandescent lamp, take a distance about 50cm (20in.) from the light source to prevent any damage to the movement or any components from the high temperature radiated by incandescent light bulbs.
8. About the Eco Drive Rechargeable Battery
This watch uses the rechargeable battery, which does not have to be periodically replaced due to repeated charging and discharging, unlike ordinary batteries.
However, certain maintenance, such as water testing and gasket checks should be performed at regular intervals. The requirements will vary by model and features.
Caution
Never use a battery other than the Eco Drive Manganese Titanium rechargeable battery used in this watch.
Installing a battery other than the original Eco Drive Manganese Titanium Rechargeable battery may result in overcharging of the movement causing it to burst. This may result in damage to the watch and even to the human body.
