Citizen C650 Watch User Manual


 
When power is not generated as a result of the solar cell not being exposed to light, the second hand stops
when it reaches the zero seconds position and the watch automatically enters the power save state to inhibit
power consumption of the secondary battery.
(Analog Display)
• The second hand stops at the base position (12:00).
• Other hands continue to keep the correct time.
(Digital Display)
In coordination with the analog second hand stopping at the zero seconds’ position, the entire digital display
goes out. However, the alarm, chronograph and other functions continue to measure time internally even
though there is no display.
<Canceling Power Save 1>
Power Save I is canceled when power generation resumes as a result of exposing the solar cell to light.
• The second hand rapidly advances to the current time and begins one-second interval movement.
• The digital display reappears simultaneous to resumption of power generation.
Notes: During the secondary battery is fully charged and the overcharging prevention function is activated, the
power save function is not activated even if power generation is interrupted as a result of the solar cell not
being exposed to light. In addition, the power save function is similarly not activated when the solar cell is
exposed to intense light and temporally becomes fully charged.
[Power Save 2]
When the Power Save I state continues for about 3 days and the minute hand reaches the base position
(12:00), the watch automatically enters the Power Save 2 state.
(Analog Display)
• The minute and second hands stop at the base position (12:00).
• Other hands stop moving at their current locations.
(Digital Display)
• The digital display remains completely out in continuation from the Power Save 1 state.
Notes:
• Crown and button operations do not function in any mode.
• The alarm tone does not sound even if it is set.
• The tone indicating that time is up does not sound in the timer mode.
<Canceling Power Save 2>
Similar to Power Save 1, Power Save 2 is canceled when power generation resumes as a result of exposing
the solar cell to light.
• Each hand rapidly advances to the current time and begins to move.
• The digital display reappears simultaneous to resumption of power generation. However, the chronograph
returns to the reset state and the timer switches to the initial setting display.
