Low Charge Warning
Your basic analog timepiece may feature a low charge warning function to provide a
visual indication that power is running low. If your timepiece features Eco-Drive technol-
ogy, be sure to immediately recharge it to prevent complete loss of power. If your time-
piece is operated by a conventional battery, have the battery replaced by an Authorized
Service Center immediately.
Three hand models
(hour, minute and second)
When a low charge state is reached, the
second hand will jump in two-second
increments.
Two hand models ( hour and minute)
The minute hand will jump every minute,
rather than smoothly advancing to the
next minute.
Time Setting Warning (Eco Drive only)
Your basic analog timepiece may feature a time setting warning function. This feature lets
you know the timepiece has commenced operation after a complete discharge of energy
but has not yet been set. This irregular movement will continue until the time is set, even
if the timepiece has been fully charged after a complete discharge.
Three hand models
(hour, minute and second)
The second hand will quickly
advance 2 seconds, then another
2 seconds in a single jump.
Two hand models
(hour and minute)
The minute hand quickly advances
three steps rather than in
one-minute increments.

Special Handling Instructions
1. Conventional Power Cell Replacements (does not apply to Eco-Drive)
Have the battery replaced regularly by an Authorized Citizen Service Center or dealer who will
properly recycle or safely dispose of the expired battery. Expired batteries may leak and cause
damage to the movement of your timepiece. If the battery expires while in your timepiece, have
it replaced immediately.
2. Avoid Temperature Extremes
Exposing your timepiece to high or low temperatures may adversely affect timekeeping and po-
tentially damage sensitive components. You should never place your timepiece on the dashboard
of your vehicle or wear in a sauna or hot tub. Leaving your timepiece in extreme cold tempera-
tures may cause irregular operation until the timepiece returns to normal operating temperature.
3. Avoid Strong Shocks
Your timepiece will withstand normal shock experienced during normal wear. Take care how-
ever not to drop or sharply knock your timepiece against objects.
4. Avoid strong magnetic elds and/or electronics that may emit static electricity.
Items such as magnetic bracelets, magnetic coin trays, cell phone speakers, portable speakers,
microwave ovens, televisions and some computer monitors may cause erratic timekeeping.
5. Avoid chemicals and gases
Avoid wearing this timepiece in the presence of chemicals and gases such as some household
cleaners, adhesives, paint, gasoline, benzine, nail polish remover, spray cosmetics including per-
fumes, or the like as these may cause discoloration, and deterioration of the case and band.
