About the Pre-installed Battery

The battery installed at the factory discharges during shipment and inventory storage. Because of this, it may not provide the normal battery life specified for this watch.

•It is up to you to purchase a battery for replacement, even if the battery you are replacing does not last for the specified battery life period.

Low Battery Indication

As the battery goes low, the watch gradually disables functions to conserve remaining power, as described below.

3.Load a new battery.

•Wipe the surfaces of a new battery with a dry cloth, and load the battery into the watch with its plus (+) side facing up (so you can see it).

•Never pick up the battery with tweezers contacting the top surface and bottom surface at the same time. Doing so creates a short.

•If the gasket comes out when you remove the battery, be sure to replace it before loading the battery. You will not be able to load the battery properly if the gasket is not in place.

•Whenever replacing the gasket, make sure there is not dust or dirt on it.

•Note the triangular shape of the gasket material. The flat surface (the base of the triangle) is the bottom, which should be against the watch body when the gasket is installed. The pointed surface (the peak of the triangle) is the top, which contacts the battery cover.

Battery Precautions

Incorrectly using a battery can cause it to burst or leak, possibly damaging the interior of the watch. Note the following precautions.

•This watch is powered by a single CR-2032 lithium battery.

•We strongly urge that you use only the type of battery specifically recommended in this manual.

•Damage to or dirt, dust, moisture on the inside of the battery cover and the battery compartment or on the surface that comes into contact with the rubber seal (gasket) can cause loss of water resistance. Keep such areas clean and free of moisture.

•Never leave a dead or weak battery in the battery compartment. Doing so runs the risk of damage and malfunction due to battery fluid leaks.

•Be sure to dispose of old batteries according to the local laws and regulations in your area.

•Improperly replacing the battery can result in damage to the watch. You will be charged to repair such damage if it occurs, so take care to replace the battery correctly.

•Never try to take the battery apart, or expose it to heat or direct flame. Take care that the positive and negative ends of the battery never become shorted.

•The battery installed at the factory is not rechargeable. Never try to charge it.

•Should battery fluid ever leak inside the battery compartment, immediately use a dry rag to wipe it out while taking care not to get any fluid on your hands.

Keep batteries out of the reach of small children. If accidentally swallowed, immediately contact a physician.
