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.
ROTATING BEZEL (for models with rotating bezel)
The rotating bezel can show up to 60 minutes of elapsed time.
Start
30 minutes
have elapsed.
Elapsed
time
1. Turn the rotating bezel to align its “ ”
mark with the minute hand.
2. Read the number on the rotating bezel that
the minute hand points to.
Note:
For some models, the rotating bezel rotates only counterclockwise.
Wearing the watch continuously for 12 hours will accumulate approximately one and a
half additional days of power reserve.
If you wear the watch every day for 12 hours over a period of a week, approximately 10
days of power reserve will be secured in the KINETIC E.S.U., which will keep the watch
operating for approximately 2 months when the hands are stopped by the power save
function.
Precautions for those only wearing the watch occasionally
If you use the watch only occasionally, it is likely that, when you decide to use it, you will find
the hands have stopped and the power save function has been activated. Before wearing
the watch, be sure to use the time relay function to awaken the watch following the
procedure in “How to activate the time relay function”.
* To use the power reserve more efficiently, it is recommended that the manual power save function be
used as often as possible when you remove the watch from your wrist.
REMARKS ON THE KINETIC E.S.U.
Precaution
Do not pull the crown out to the second click to stop the hands with the intention of saving
the energy stored in the KINETIC E.S.U. By doing so, a large amount of current flows through
the built-in IC, and therefore, pulling out the crown will not save energy but actually consume
more energy than usual. Instead, use the manual power save function to conserve the power
reserve.
