Features

This solar-drive and radio-controlled watch is equipped with a radio signal adjustment function.

・

The watch is operated by using “electric energy” which is converted from the light received by the solar panel.

・

This watch displays the precise time by receiving radio signals conveying time information. It can receive o󰮐cial standard frequencies

from Japan (from either of two transmitting stations), the People's Republic of China, and the United States of America.

■

Radio Signal Receiving Function ･･･････････････････････ This watch adjusts the time and the date precisely by automatically

receiving radio signals daily.

In addition, radio signals can be forcibly received with manual

operation.

This watch can receive o󰮐cial standard radio signals　from Japan

(from 2 transmitting stations), China, and the United States (the

transmitting station for receiving radio signals can be selected using

the time zone adjustment function).

■

Display Function of Radio Signal Reception Level ････ The movement of the second hand indicates the radio signal

reception level during radio signal reception attempts.

■

Display Function of Radio Signal Reception Results ･･ The movement of the second hand indicates radio signal reception

results (Yes/No).

The radio-controlled watch displays the precise time and date by automatically receiving

and synchronizing itself with the radio signal of an o󰮐cial standard frequency.

Time signal transmitted by a standard frequency is based on a super accurate "Cesium

■ Energy depletion forewarning function

The energy depletion forewarning function is activated when the energy stored in the

watch runs low. In such a case, the second hand moves at two-second intervals. If

the watch continues to be in the state of two-second interval movement, the watch

switches to ve-second interval movement, followed by a completely stopped state.

If the energy depletion forewarning function is activated, charge the watch su󰮐ciently.

ToPreservetheQualityofYourWatch

■ Band

The band touches the skin directly and becomes dirty with sweat or dust.

Therefore, lack of care may accelerate deterioration of the band or cause skin irritation

or stain on the sleeve edge. The watch requires a lot of attention for long usage.

・Metallic band

・

Moisture, sweat or soil will cause rust even on a stainless steel band if they are left for a long time.

・

Lack of care may cause a yellowish or gold stain on the lower sleeve edge of shirts.

・

Wipe o󰮏 moisture, sweat or soil with a soft cloth as soon as possible

・

To clean the soil around the joint gaps of the band, wipe it out in water and then brush it o󰮏 with a

soft toothbrush.

（Protect the watch body from water splashes by wrapping it up in plastic wrap etc.）

・

Because some titan bracelets use pins made of stainless steel, which has outstanding strength,

rust may form in the stainless steel parts.

・

If rust advances, pins may poke out or drop out, and the watch case may fall o󰮏 the bracelet, or the

clasp may not open.

・

If a pin is poking out, personal injury may result. In such a case, refrain from using the watch and

request repair.

・Leather band

・

A leather band is susceptible to discoloration and deterioration from moisture, sweat and direct sunlight.

・

Wipe o󰮏 moisture and sweat as soon as possible by gently blotting them up with a dry cloth.

・

Do not expose the watch to direct sunlight for a long time.

・

Please take care when wearing a watch with light-colored band, as dirt is likely to show up.

・

RefrainfromwearingaleatherbandwatchotherthanAquaFreebandswhilebathing,

swimming,andwhenworkingwithwaterevenifthewatchitselfis water-resistantenforced

fordailyuse（10 -BA Rwaterresistant）.

・Polyurethane band

・

A polyurethane band is susceptible to discoloration from light, and may be deteriorated by

solvent or atmospheric humidity.

・

Especially a translucent, white, or pale colored band easily adsorbs other colors, resulting in

color smears or discoloration.

・

Wash out dirt in water and clean it o󰮏 with a dry cloth.

　（Protect the watch body from water splashes by wrapping it up in plastic wrap etc.）

・

When the band becomes less exible or cracked, replace the band with a new one.

■ Power source

・Power source

The battery used in this watch is a special secondary battery, which is di󰮏erent from ordinary batteries.

Unlike an ordinary silver oxide battery, the secondary battery does not require periodic replacement.

However, if the secondary battery is charged or discharged repeatedly over an extended period of time,

its life may shorten.（This condition changes depending upon usage condition and storage environment.）

The secondary battery is an environmentally friendly, clean energy storage device.

・

Even when a silveroxide battery issubstituted,electricalcontinuity

cannotbeobtained.

NOTICE

・ Overcharge prevention function

When the secondary battery is fully charged, the overcharge prevention function is automatically activated

to avoid further charging. There is no need to worry about damage caused by overcharging no matter how

much the secondary battery is charged in excess of the "time required for fully charging the watch".
