Notes on charging your watch This watch has a rechargeable cell which is charged by exposing the dial to light such as direct sunlight or fluorescent lamps. For optimal performance: • 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 reaches a low charge state—insufficient charge warning function When the power reserve becomes low, the second hand moves once every two seconds—This is the insufficient charge warning function. Charge the watch by exposing the dial to light. • After the watch is charged, the second hand will move normally. See page 46. • If you have not charged the watch for six days or more since the insufficient charge warning movement began, the watch will run out power and stop.
Charging time by environment Below are the approximate times needed for charging when exposing the watch dial to light continuously. Please use this table as a reference only. Environment time to work for Illuminance (Lx) Chargingone day Under direct sunlight or cloudy weather 10000 to 100000 Charging time to start working normally when the rechargeable cell is empty 3 to 12 minutes 2 to 3 hours 20 cm under a fluorescent lamp (30 W) 3000 45 minutes 6.

If the crown of your watch is the screw down crown, be sure to tighten it completely. • Do not operate the crown or buttons when the watch is wet. • If water has penetrated the watch, or if the inside of the glass is fogged up and does not become clear in a day, take the watch to your dealer or Citizen Service Center for repair.
Keep your watch clean • Keep your watch clean to prevent rust or dirt building up as this may stain your clothes, damage the watch or appear as black residue on your wrist. Depending on use, occasional cleaning of the exterior of your watch may be necessary. • Wipe dirt off the leather band with a soft and dry cloth to prevent it from discoloring.
Maintenance Daily maintenance • Rotate the crown while it is pressed in fully and press the buttons periodically so they do not become stuck due to accumulations of foreign matter. • Wipe off dirt, perspiration, and water from the case and glass with a clean soft cloth occasionally. • To clean a metal, plastic, or rubber watchband, wash away dirt with water. Use a soft brush to remove dust and dirt stuck in the gaps in a metal band.
Information The time signal The time signal is broadcast almost continuously 24-hours a day, but may occasionally be interrupted due to maintenance. The broadcasting conditions of the time signal can be checked on the station web site. The time signal has no effect on the human body or medical equipment.
To avoid hand misalignment by impacts or magnetism Impact detection function: This function prevents unwanted movement of the hour, minute and second hands when the watch receives an impact. Hand correction function (hand reference position auto-correction function): The reference position of the hands is checked at regular intervals, and if there is any misalignment, the hour, minute and second hands are rapidly corrected to maintain the correct time.
Luminous dials and hands The paint on the dial and hands helps you with reading the time in a dark place. The luminous paint stores light (daylight or artificial light) and glows in a dark place. It is free from any radioactive substance or any other material harmful to a human body or environment. • The light emission gradually becomes weaker as time passes.
