ENERGY DEPLETION FOREWARNING FUNCTION
The watch has been charged fully at the factory, and the power save function will keep
the built-in IC computing the time for up to four years. Normally, therefore, it is not
necessary to charge the watch manually by swinging it. If you should find the second
hand moving at two-second intervals, however, charge the watch following the
procedure in How to charge the watch.
When the second hand starts moving at two-second intervals instead of the normal one-
second intervals, the watch will run down in approximately 12 hours.
If the second hand starts moving at two-second intervals when the power save function is
turned off by swinging the watch, the power reserve may have become depleted to an
extremely low level.
In those cases, charge the watch following the procedure below.
1. Swing the watch from side to side approximately 500 times.
* Swing rhythmically at a rate of twice a second.
* If the second hand still moves at two-second intervals after the watch is
swung 500 times, swing it further until the second hand moves at one-
second intervals.
2. Swing the watch approximately 200 times further to reserve
one day of power.
