TECHNICAL GUIDE
Cal. 5J32A
1. Adjust the time of the watch to a base time indicated
by another watch.
2. Pull out the crown to the first click and push it back
in to the normal position within one second. The
manual power save function is activated, and the
second hand stops moving.
Checking procedure
Notes:
* Take care not to pull out the crown all the way
to the second click.
* If this happens by mistake, resume the checking
procedure from step “1”.
3. Leave the watch untouched for more than one
minute, making sure that the power save function
is in operation.
4. Swing the watch continuously for 2 to 3 seconds. The watch detects the generation of electricity, and
the hands move to indicate the current time.
5. If the time indicated by the watch is identical with the base time used in step “1”, the manual power
save and time relay functions are normal.
Note: If the power save function has been in operation for a long term before the time relay function
is activated, the time indicated by the watch and the base time may differ slightly though the
watch is normal. This is because the two watches are different in time accuracy and different
amounts of time loss or gain have accumulated during that time.

IV. TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The following are the tips on repairing Cal. 5J32A, which you will find helpful in working on the watch.
1) The power save function is activated after the watch is left untouched for approximately 72 hours.
2) The manual power save function is activated by pulling out the crown to the first click and pushing
it in to the normal position within one second.
3) While the second hand is moving at two-second intervals, the power save function cannot be
activated either automatically or manually.
4) If the crown is pulled out to the second click while the power save function is in operation, the time
computed by the built-in IC will be canceled, thus disabling the time relay function.
5) The built-in IC does not compute the date, and the time relay function will not adjust the date. If the
power save function has been active for more than one day before the time relay function is activated,
it is necessary to adjust the date to the current date.
6) The accuracy of the time computed by the built-in IC while the power save function is in operation
is equivalent to that of conventional quartz watches. If the power save function has been active for
a long term before the time relay function is activated, the time indicated by the hands may include
a certain amount of time loss or gain that has accumulated during that time.
7) If the power reserve is depleted while the power save function is in operation, the time relay function
may not be activated by swinging the watch, Instead, the second hand starts moving at two-second
intervals.
