Use of the Quarter Hour Watch outdoors
The Quarter Hour Watch is well suited for use outdoors. However, one should keep it in a
bag or pocket when it is not being used.
It is not recommended to let the Quarter Hour Watch be left outdoors over-night or in the
rain.
If the Quarter Hour Watch has been soaked with water or exposed to dampness in any way,
the batteries should be removed and everything dried out properly before the batteries are
put back and the Quarter Hour Watch is used again.
At extremely high temperature (+40°C), e.g., if the Quarter Hour Watch has been lying in
direct sunlight in several hours, the display contrast can be impaired to where the empty
circles look filled, i.e., like dots, if you look at the Quarter Hour Watch a little bit from the side.
At extremely low temperature (-20°C), e.g., if the Quarter Hour Watch has been lying very
cold for several hours, the display contrast also may be impaired and somewhat difficult to
read.
Cleaning of the Quarter Hour Watch
The Quarter Hour Watch may be cleaned with a firmly twisted damp swab and a mild
dishwasher detergent. The Quarter Hour Watch must not be flushed with water.
