HOW TO CHARGE AND START THE WATCH
English

3When the watch is charged after it has completely stopped, set the date
and time before wearing the watch.
* See “GUIDELINE OF CHARGING TIME” on page 6 (Cal. V145) / on page 7 (Cal.
V182).
CAUTION
Caution for charging
●When charging the watch, do not place it too close to a photoflash light, spotlight,
incandescent light or other light sources as the watch temperature will become
extremely high, causing damage to the parts inside the watch.
●When exposing the watch to sunlight to charge it, do not leave it on the dashboard
of a car, etc. for a long time, as the watch temperature becomes extremely high.
●While charging the watch, make sure the watch temperature does not exceed 50°C.
NOTES:
1 When the quick-start function is activated by exposing the watch to light, Second
hand starts moving at 2-second intervals immediately, but the energy stored in the
rechargeable battery is not sufficient. If the watch is turned away from the light,
it may stop operating.
2 It is not necessary to charge the watch fully. It is important, however, to charge
the watch sufficiently, especially in case of initial charge.

✩
The values in this column represent the charging times required until Second hand
moves constantly at 1-second intervals after the watch starts operating with Second
hand moving at 2-second intervals. Even if the watch is not charged for the time
specified in the column, Second hand may temporarily move at 1-second intervals.
But, it will soon resume moving at 2-second intervals, and therefore, charge the
watch for more than the specified period.
●The above tables provide only general guidelines.
●When the watch is fully charged, it will keep operating for approximately 6 months
(Cal. V145) / 2 months (Cal. V182) .

NOTES:
1 Do not set the date between 9:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m. Otherwise, it may not
change properly.
* If it is necessary to set the date during that time period, first change the time
to any time outside it, set the date and then reset the correct time.
2 When setting Hour hand, check that AM/PM is correctly set.
* The watch is so designed that the date changes once in 24 hours. Turn the
hands past the 12 o’clock marker to determine whether the watch is set for
the A.M. or P.M. period. If the date changes, the time is set for the A.M.
period. If the date does not change, the time is set for the P.M. period.
3 When setting Minute hand, first advance it 4 to 5 minutes ahead of the desired
time and then turn it back to the exact minute.
4 It is necessary to adjust the date at the end of February and 30-day months.
