[Insufficient Charge Warning Feature]
Switches from 1-second interval movement (normal movement) to 2-second interval
movement
When the capacity of the secondary battery becomes low
as a result of light not shining on the solar cell, the
second hand switches from 1-second interval movement
(normal movement) to 2-second interval movement.
Although the watch continues to run normally at this
time, the watch ends up stopping if it remains
insufficiently charged for about 5 days after the start of
2-second interval movement. Sufficiently charge the
watch by exposing to light so that the second hand
returns to 1-second interval movement.
Notes:
• When chronograph timing is in progress, timing is interrupted and the chronograph
second hand is reset to the 0 seconds position.
• The chronograph minute hand stops at any arbitrary position. Press button (B) to
return to the 0 minutes position.

[Quick Start Feature]
When light (approx. 500 lx) shines on the solar cell after the watch has stopped as a
result of being insufficiently charged, the second hand begins 2-second interval
movement and the watch starts to run after about 10 seconds (the time until the watch
starts to run varies according to the model). However, please note that the watch will
end up stopping again if the solar cell is blocked from the light since the watch will
again become insufficiently charged.
[When Watch has Stopped due to Insufficient Charging]
When the capacity of the secondary battery has been depleted as a result of light not
shining on the solar cell, the watch becomes insufficiently charged and stops. When
light shines on the solar cell, the Quick Start Feature is activated and the second hand
begins 2-second interval movement. Sufficiently charge the watch by exposing to light
until the second hand returns to 1-second interval movement.
Note:
• Even though the watch starts to run, since the watch has previously stopped as a
result of being insufficiently charged, the time is incorrect. Reset the time before
using the watch.
