Foroptimalperformance
• Expose the watch with the dial towards direct sunlight for several hours at least
once a month.
• After taking off the watch, put it in a position so that the dial is exposed to
bright light, such as by a window.
• Before storing the watch in a dark place for an extended period of time, be sure
to charge it fully.
When the watch is regularly covered with long sleeves, it may not be charged
sufficiently. Try to keep the watch exposed to light sufficient for charging.
Do not charge the watch at a high temperature (about 60°C/140°F or higher).

If the watch is not exposed to light within
approximately 4 days after the insufficient
