. Setting the Time and Date [Switching the Mode] In the case the crown is of the screw-lock type, operate the crown after first loosening the screw and then make sure to securely retighten the screw after the crown has been operated. The correction mode is switched by operating the crown and button as indicated below.
PAGE 4
[Setting the Time and Date] 1. When the crown is pulled out to the second click, the second hand rapidly advances to the 0 seconds position and stops. * Align the hands at the reference position after performing the all-reset procedure when the second hand does not stop at the 0 seconds position. 2. Turn the crown and set the minutes.
PAGE 5
* When the crown is turned continuously, the hour hand advances rapidly. Turn the crown to either the left or right to stop the hour hand from advancing rapidly. 3. Turn the crown continuously to advance the hour hand rapidly and correct the date. * The date changes between the hours of about 10:00 PM and 3:00 AM.

4. Correcting the Time Difference When button (A) is pressed and the crown is turned, time difference can be corrected in 1 hour units. The time difference can be corrected for 30 seconds after button (A) has been pressed or for 30 seconds after the hands finish moving. 1. Put the crown in the normal position. 2. When button (A) is pressed, the second hand performs a demonstration movement (forward rotation → backward rotation → forward rotation). 3.
PAGE 8
––Case of Correcting Time Difference by –9 Hours–– The time difference cannot be corrected when the second hand is moving at two-second intervals indicating that the watch is insufficiently charged. Correct the time difference after charging the watch by exposing it to light so that the second hand returns to one-second interval movement.

The second hand moves at two-second intervals to indicate that the watch is insufficiently charged. Although the watch will continue to operate normally at this time as well, it will stop after about 2 days have elapsed since the start of twosecond interval movement. Expose the watch to light to return the second hand to one-second interval movement.
PAGE 12
The overcharging prevention function is activated when the secondary battery is fully charged so that it is not charged further. When power is no longer generated as a result of light not shining on the solar cell continuously for 2 hours, the second hand stops at the 12:00 position and the watch enters the Power Save state to reduce power consumption of the secondary battery. The minute hand stops simultaneous to stopping of the second hand.
PAGE 13
7. Notes Regarding Handling of this Watch 8. Replacing the Secondary Battery The secondary battery used in this watch does not have to be periodically replaced in the manner of ordinary batteries since it is able to be charged and discharged repeatedly. Please note that if you frequently wear long sleeves, the watch can easily become insufficiently charged as a result of it being concealed and unable to be exposed to light.

9. All-Reset 10. Reference Position Alignment The display of this watch may not read correctly as a result of being subjected to the effects of static electricity or strong impact and so forth. When this happens, perform the procedure described in "10. Reference Position Alignment" after performing the all-reset procedure described below. 1. Pull out the crown to the second click. * The second hand moves to the 0-position stored in memory and stops. 2. Continuously press button (A) for at least 1 second.
PAGE 15
2. Align the date between the 31st and 1st and the hour hand at the 12:00 position with the crown pulled out to the first click. (1) Turning the crown to the right causes CITIZEN the hour hand to move forward. (2) Turning the crown to the left causes the hour hand to move backward. 3. The date moves with the hour hand. Continuously move the hour hand to set the date between the 31st and 1st. 4. Align the hour hand at 12:00. 5.

11. Precautions For correct use within the design limits of the watch, confirm the level of waterresistance of your watch, as indicated on the dial and case, and consult the table. CAUTION: Water-resistance performance There are several types of water-resistant watches as shown in the following table. Examples of use The unit "bar" is roughly equal to 1 atmosphere. * WATER RESIST (ANT) xx bar may also be indicated as W.R. xx bar.
PAGE 17
• Water-resistance for daily use (to 3 atmospheres): This type of watch is waterresistant to minor exposure to water. For example, you may wear the watch while washing your face; however, it is not designed for use underwater. • Upgraded water-resistance for daily use (to 5 atmospheres): This type of watch is water-resistant to moderate exposure to water. You may wear the watch while swimming; however, it is not designed for use while skin diving.
PAGE 18
CAUTION: Operating environment • Use the watch within the operating temperature range specified in the instruction manual. Using the watch where temperatures are outside the specified range may result in deterioration of functions or even stoppage of the watch. • Do NOT use the watch in places where it is exposed to high temperature, such as in a sauna. Doing so may result in a burn.
