Frequently Asked Questions - V52G Lorus

How do I set the date?

Pull the crown out to the first position (one click). Turn clockwise to set the date. Avoid setting between 9 PM and 4 AM to prevent damage.

Is the Lorus V52G water resistant?

Yes, it is water resistant to 30 meters (3 ATM). It can withstand splashes and light rain, but not swimming or diving.

How long does the battery last?

The battery typically lasts about 3 years. When the second hand moves in 4-second jumps, it indicates low battery and needs replacement.

How do I replace the battery?

Battery replacement should be done by a professional watchmaker. The battery type is SR626SW. Do not attempt to open the case yourself.

Can I wear the watch in the shower?

No, due to the 30m water resistance rating, it is not recommended for shower or bath. Avoid steam and hot water.

What should I do if the watch stops?

First, check if the crown is fully pushed in. If it still doesn't run, the battery may be dead. Take it to a watch repair shop for battery replacement.

How do I clean my Lorus V52G?

Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the case and strap. For a leather strap, avoid water. For metal bracelets, mild soapy water and a soft brush can be used, then rinse and dry.

Is the watch suitable for sports?

The watch is suitable for daily activities but not for heavy impact sports. Water resistance is limited, so avoid prolonged wet conditions.

How do I adjust the bracelet length?

If the strap is a metal bracelet, remove links using a pin pusher or take it to a jeweler. For leather straps, use the buckle holes; additional holes can be punched by a professional.

■ LUMIBRITE WATCH

(dial, hands, buttons, case, bezel, strap, etc.)

☆ If your watch is a LORUS LUMIBRITE watch, it has following features.

LORUS LUMIBRITE watches absorb and store light energy from natural and artificial light sources and emit light in the dark. They are made of environmentally friendly material, and therefore, are harmless to human beings and the environment.

• With a full charge, LORUS LUMIBRITE watches glow in the dark hours longer than conventional luminous watches of this type. If exposed to a light of more than 500 lux (i.e., the brightness of a typical office) for approximately 10 minutes, or direct sunlight for 2 minutes, they will glow for hours.
• Since LORUS LUMIBRITE watches emit the light they store, the brightness will decrease gradually over time. The length of time they will glow may also differ slightly depending on such factors as the brightness of and distance from the light source used to charge the watch.

■ BATTERY CHANGE

The miniature battery which powers your watch should last as individually specified below. However, because it is inserted at the factory, the actual life of the battery once in your possession may be less than the specified period.

Be sure to replace the battery to prevent any possible malfunction as soon as it runs down. To replace the battery, we recommend taking the watch to a local watch repair shop.

	[For music function] SEIKO/MAXELL/SONY/ MATSUSHITA SR626SW or EVEREADY 377, 2 pieces	Approx. 3 years

Notes:

1. The music function consumes a large amount of electricity, and the consumed energy varies depending on the music played and its duration (and the movement of the second hand for Cal. V421, V422 and V621).

2. [Cal. V421, V422 & V621] If the music function is used frequently, the battery life may be less than 2 years. [Cal. V52F & V52G]

3. If the music function is used more than 5 times a day, the batteries for the music function may expire in less than 3 years.
   • We recommend that you replace all the three batteries if any of them needs to be replaced.
