<Insufficient Charging Warning Feature>
When the capacity of the secondary battery decreases as a result of light not shining
on the solar cell, the second hand switches from 1-second interval movement to 2-
second interval movement (insufficient charge warning feature). Although the
watch continues to keep time accurately at this time, the watch stops after about 4
days have elapsed after the second hand has switched to 2-second interval movement.
When this happens, charge the watch by exposing it to light until the second hand
returns to 1-second interval movement.
Notes:
• When the chronograph, alarm 1 or alarm 2 mode is
displayed, the watch automatically switches to the time
display and begins 2-second interval movement.
However, the mode hand indicates the original mode.
The watch returns to the original mode when it is
sufficient charged and the insufficient charge warning
feature is canceled.
• Chronograph measurement stop and the chronograph is
reset even when measurement is in progress.
• The alarm will not sound even if it is set.
• Crown (mode switching) and button operations will
not function.
<When the Watch has Stopped due to Insufficient Charging>
When the capacity of the secondary battery decreases as a result of the watch not
being exposed to light after though the insufficient charge warning feature has
been activated, the watch will stop due to being insufficiently charged. When this
happens, sufficiently charge the watch by exposing to light so that it returns to the
normal time display (1-second interval movement).
Notes:
• Since the time is incorrect when the watch has
stopped as a result of being insufficient charged,
make sure to reset the time before using.
• If the watch has stopped as a result of being
insufficient charged, it takes at least 30 minutes until
the watch returns to the normal time display even if
it is exposed to light. Continue charging until the
second hand begins to move.
