HOW TO CHARGE AND START THE WATCH M Swing the watch from side to side approximately 200 times. Ë + Swing rhythmically at a rate of twice a second. *200 swings will start the watch and the second hand will move at one-second intervals. MBA Swing the watch approximately 200 times further to reserve one day of power. A S<tre timecalendar and put on the watch.

POWER RESERVE IN YOUR SEIKO KINETIC WATCH ‘© The electric energy generated while the watch is worn on your wristis stored in the KINETIC ELECTRICITY STORAGE UNIT (KINETIC E.S.U.). It is a power source completely different from conventional batteries for watches, and therefore, this watch does not require battery replacement. © Power reserve guidelines for the KINETIC E.S.U. You can estimate the power reserve accumulated in the KINETIC E.S.U. from the manner in which you wear the watch. Wearing the watch continuously for 12 hours will accumulate approximately four additional days of power reserve. If you wear the watch every day for 12 hours a day over a week, for example, the watch will be fully charged. € Full charge When the watch is fully charged, the watch will keep operating for approximately 1 month. ‘ Precautions for those only wearing the watch occasionally If you use the watch only occasionally, it is likely that you will find the watch running down when you decide to use it. Before wearing the watch, be sure to charge it sufficientiy following the procedure in “HOW TO CHARGE AND START THE WATCH”. us!6U

REMARKS ON THE KINETIC E.S.U. ‘© Do not pull the crown out to the second click with the intention of stopping the second hand just to save energy. By doing so, à large amount of current flows through the built-in 1C. Therefore, pulling out the crown to the second click will not save energy but, in fact, consume more energy than usual. À CAUTION Never install a silver oxide battery for conventional watches in place of the KINETIC E.S.U. The battery may burst, become very hot or catch fire.

ENERGY DEPLETION FOREWARNING FUNCTION

© When the second hand starts moving at two-second intervals instead of the normal one- second intervals, the watch will run down in approximately 12 hours.

• Ifthe second hand starts moving at two-second'intervals while the stopwatch is in use, the watch will run down in approximately 1 to 2 hours assuming the stopwatch remains in use. In this case, swing the watch from side to side to sufficiently charge the KINETIC E.S.U.

STOPWATCH ‘© The stopwatch can measure up to 12 hours, 6 minutes and 12.2 seconds in 1/10 second us! increments. © The measured time is indicated by small STOPWATCH hands that move independentiy of the hands for time indication.

TIPS ON READING THE HANDS

‘© The STOPWATCH minute hand turns a full circle in 30 minutes. The indicated scale, therefore, should be read differentiy depending on the position of the STOPWATCH hour hand. Ex. ) When the STOPWATCH minute hand indicates “10” Measured time is either “10 minutes” or “40 minutes”. Check the position of the STOPWATCH hour hand to decide which to choose. “1 hour and 40 minutes” “1 hour and 10 minutes” (The hour hand is nearer to the Zhour matter) (The hour hand is nearer to the 1-hour marker.)

Ex) 1 hour 55 minutes 50 seconds 9 + STOPWATCH second hand reading:— STOPWATCH minute hand reading: The STOPWATCH second hand almost The STOPWATCH minute hand almost points to “51” but should be read as points to “26” but should be read as 0", as the STOPWATCH 1/10 second 55", as the measured second are “50” hand'indicates “9”. andthe STOPWATCH hourhandii nezrer to the 2-hour marker (refer to the first description in this section) STOPWATCH 1/10 second hand

HOW TO CHARGE AND START THE WATCH À © Jo charge the KINETIC SU. efficient, swing the watch from side to side, making an arc of about: cm. @ No additional benefit is obtained by swinging the watch more quickly or with greater vigor. @ When the watch is swung, the oscillating weight in the generating system rotates to drive the mechanism.

Even if itis further swung after being ul charged, no malfunction wil result. @ Wear the watch daily for at least 10 hours. @ Even ifthe watch is wom on your arm, it wil not be charged while your arm is not in motion. POWER RESERVE IN YOUR SEIKO KINETIC WATCH © Precaution on see-through case-back models: your watch has a gs c25e back, do not expose the case back to strong gt such as dre urlight or an incandescent light at close range, as this may temporariy increase the power consumption of the watch circuit, thus reducing the power reserve in the KINETIC E.S.U. This condition, however, will be corected when the case back is tumed away from the light.

In this case, pull out the crown to the first click and tum it counterclockwise until the desired date appears. STOPWATCH © You may feel that the buttons of the watch are harder to press compared with those of conventional wratches.
