POWER RESERVE INDICATOR
The current power reserve of the capacitor can be checked instantly by using the power
reserve indicator function.
1. Press the button at the 2 oclock position. The second hand moves quickly and stops.
2. The number of seconds that the second hand advances indicates the power reserve
in the capacitor. (See the table on the next page)
3. Please note that after the power reserve is checked, the second hand will resume
normal movement again after the indicated 5, 10, 20 or 30 seconds have elapsed.
4. If the watch needs recharging, swing it sufficiently.
The power reserve indicator provides a general guideline of the duration within
which the watch keeps operating without needing to be charged. Actual power
reserve may differ slightly from the amounts shown in the table.
