If the second hand starts moving at two-second intervals

(ENERGY DEPLETION FOREWARNING FUNC- TION)

•When the second hand starts moving at two-second intervals whether it is worn or left untouched, the watch may run down within approximately 24 hours.

•In such a case, swing the watch from side to side to sufficiently charge the KI- NETIC E.S.U. (refer to "HOW TO CHARGE AND START THE WATCH" on page 6), and then reset the time and calendar.

INSTANT-START FUNCTION

lWhen a long time has passed since the watch stopped, you can get it started quickly with only a few swings.

lThis function is available as long as the watch has been stopped for less than a year.

*When this function is activated, the second hand will start moving at two-second intervals. Swing the watch from side to side to charge the KINETIC E.S.U. by referring to "NUMBER OF SWINGS AND POWER RESERVE" on page 7.

*After the second hand starts moving at one-second intervals, put the watch on your wrist so that it will be charged further.

*The watch remains accurate even while the second hand is moving at two-second intervals.

REMARKS ON THE KINETIC E.S.U.

lThe electric energy generated while the watch is worn on your wrist is stored in the KINETIC E.S.U. It is a power source completely different from conven- tional batteries for watches and does not require any periodic replacement.

●When the KINETIC E.S.U. is fully charged, the watch will keep operating for approximately 6 months without recharging the KINETIC E.S.U.

●The duration of charge decreases gradually over time. The extent of decrease, however, varies depending on the environment and conditions of use.

●The KINETIC E.S.U. is a clean and environmentally friendly power source.

CAUTION

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.
