sunlight or fluorescent lamps.
To obtain the best performance:
•Expose the dial to direct sunlight for several hours at least once a month.
•After taking off the watch, put it where 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, fully charge the battery.
Caution
•When the watch is covered with long sleeves, for example, the battery may
not be charged sufficiently. Try to keep the watch exposed to light even when
wearing the watch.
