A fluorescent lamp or interior lighting does not have sufficient illumination to charge the rechargeable cell efficiently. 66 Charging your watch Power save function The hour, minute and second hands stop automatically to save power as 3 days passed after starting to keep the watch in a dark place such as in a case. • The watch is still running internally to keep the time and calendar correctly even after the power save function has activated. • The alarm will not sound while the power save function is activated. • The power save function is not activated when the position of the crown is or . • The power save status ends and the hands return to indicate the current time as the watch is operated or the dial is exposed to light and power generation starts. Duration without additional charging after charging the watch fully About 1 year and 6 month in normal use. • When using functions in the frequency below: time reception every 6 days, chronograph 1 hour a day and alarm once a day. • The watch will keep running internally for up to 5 years with the power save function. 67 Information on satellite signal reception This watch receives time information from satellites to indicate the time and calendar. It also obtains location information from them to indicate time appropriate in the area where it is actually used. For receiving the satellite signal Satellite signal reception is power-consuming. Be sure your watch has a sufficient charge before executing reception. • The average monthly accuracy of this watch is ±5 seconds even if a satellite signal is not received. • Use the function to see the result of the previous reception (success or fail) (page 31) effectively to try to execute reception in best frequency. 68 Information on satellite signal reception Cautions regarding receiving the satellite signal Do not perform signal reception while operating a vehicle as doing so is extremely dangerous. • If the second hand is moving once every two seconds (insufficient charge warning function), you cannot perform satellite signal reception. Charge the watch sufficiently before attempting signal reception. • Even when this watch receives the signal successfully, the accuracy of the displayed time will be dependent on the reception environment and internal processing. • The automatic correction feature of this watch is supported until 28/2/2100. • Daylight saving time information is not contained in the satellite signal. Adjust the setting manually before and after the daylight saving time period. (page 52) Continued on the next page 69 Information on satellite signal reception When receiving the satellite signal As shown in the picture below, make sure you are in an area with few surrounding trees, buildings, or other objects which may obstruct the satellite signal. Face the dial towards the sky and perform signal reception. • For successful reception there should be a clear view of the sky as depicted in the illustration when attempting to receive the satellite signal. • Reception may fail due to the positions of satellites when you try to receive their signals. 70 Information on satellite signal reception Receiving signals indoors near a window Place the watch near a window with a wide view of the sky and orient the dial in an obliquely upward direction to the sky. • Signal reception from some satellites is required for obtaining location information. It is possible that location information cannot be obtained while time information can be received in the same place. Outdoor signal reception is recommended for obtaining location information. • It may be difficult to receive satellite signals through special types of window glass. Continued on the next page 71 Information on satellite signal reception Poor reception areas It may be difficult to receive the satellite signal under certain environmental conditions or in certain areas. Areas with obstructions above the watch • Indoors or underground • Areas surrounded by tall buildings or trees • When the weather is cloudy or rainy, or during a thunderstorm etc. 72 Nearby objects which emit magnetism or electrical interference • High-voltage electric cables, railway lines / overhead cables, airports, and transmission facilities. • Electrical appliances and OA equipment • Mobile telephones in the process of calling/ transmitting • Mobile telephone base stations etc. Information on satellite signal reception Checking and adjusting leap second setting This watch displays the time by applying the leap second to the International Atomic Time information received from satellites. The leap second may be applied once a few years and the leap second setting on the watch must be adjusted each time it applied. •The leap second setting can be adjusted by executing leap second reception (page 48). It can also be set manually.

The following chart provides examples of use for reference to ensure that your watch is used properly. (The unit “1bar” is roughly equal to 1 atmosphere.) •WATER RESIST(ANT) ××bar may also be indicated as W.R.××bar. Indication Name Specification Non water-resistant — Non water-resistant Everyday use water-resistant watch WATER RESIST Water-resistant to 3 atmospheres W. R. 5 bar Water-resistant to 5 atmospheres W. R. 10/20 bar Water-resistant to 10 or 20 atmospheres Upgraded everyday use waterresistant watch 102 Dial or Case back Water resistance Water-related use Minor exposure to Swimming water (washing and general Skin diving, face, rain, etc.) washing work marine sports Scuba diving using an air tank Saturation diving using helium gas Operate the crown or button when the watch is wet NO NO NO NO NO NO OK NO NO NO NO NO OK OK NO NO NO NO OK OK OK NO NO NO 103 Water resistance •Non-water resistant models are not designed to come into contact with any moisture. Take care not to expose a watch with this rating to any type of moisture. •Water resistance for daily use (to 3 atmospheres) means the watch is water resistant for occasional accidental splashing. •Upgraded water-resistance for daily use (to 5 atmospheres) means that the watch may be worn while swimming, but is not to worn while skin diving. •Upgraded water-resistance for daily use (to 10/20 atmospheres) means that the watch may be worn while skin diving, but not while scuba or saturated diving using helium gas. 104 Precautionary items and usage limitations CAUTION To Avoid Injury • Be particularly careful when wearing your watch while holding a small child, to avoid injury. • Be particularly careful when engaged in strenuous exercise or work, to avoid injury to yourself and others. • Do not wear your watch while in a sauna or other location where your watch may become excessively hot, since there is the risk of burns. • Be careful when putting on and taking off your watch, since there is a risk of damaging your fingernails, depending on the manner in which the band is fastened. • Take off your watch before going to bed. 105 Precautionary items and usage limitations CAUTION Precautions • Always use the watch with the crown pushed in (normal position). If the crown is of the screw lock-type, make sure it is securely locked. • Do not operate the crown or any push buttons when the watch is wet. Water may enter the watch causing damage to vital components. • If water enters the watch or the watch fogs up and does not clear up even after a long time, consult your dealer or customer support center for inspection and/or repair. • Even if your watch has a high level of water resistance, please be careful of the following. - If your watch is immersed in sea water, rinse thoroughly with fresh water and wipe with a dry cloth. - Do not pour water from a tap directly onto your watch. - Take off your watch before taking a bath. • If seawater enters the watch, place the watch in a box or plastic bag and immediately take it in for repair. Otherwise, pressure inside the watch will increase, and parts (crystal, crown, push button, etc.) may come off. 106 Precautionary items and usage limitations CAUTION When Wearing Your Watch <Band> • Leather bands and rubber (urethane) bands will deteriorate over time due to perspiration dirt. Because of the natural materials, leather band will be worn, deformed, and discolored over time. It is recommended to replace the band periodically. • The durability of a leather band may be affected when wet (fading, peeling of adhesive), owing to the properties of the material. Moreover, wet leather may cause a rash. • Do not stain a leather band with substances containing volatile materials, bleach, alcohol (including cosmetics). Discoloration and premature aging may be occurred. Ultraviolet light such as direct sunlight may cause discoloration or deformation. • It is recommended to take off the watch if it gets wet, even if the watch itself is water-resistant. • Do not wear the band too tightly. Try to leave enough space between the band and your skin to allow adequate ventilation. • The rubber (urethane) band may be stained by dyes or soil present in or on clothing or other accessories. Since these stains may not be removable, caution is required when wearing your watch with items that tend to easily transfer color (articles of clothing, purses, etc.). In addition, the band may be deteriorated by solvents or moisture in the air. Replace with a new one when it has lost elasticity or become cracked. 107 Precautionary items and usage limitations CAUTION When Wearing Your Watch (continued) • Please request adjustment or repair of the band in the following cases: - You notice an abnormality with the band due to corrosion. - The pin of the band is protruding. • We recommend seeking the assistance of an experienced watch technician for sizing of your watch. If adjustment is not done correctly, the bracelet may unexpectedly become detached leading to loss of your watch or injury. Consult your nearest authorized Citizen service center. <Temperature> • The watch may stop or the function of the watch may be impaired in extremely high or low temperature. Do not use the watch in places where the temperature is outside the operating temperature range as stated in the specifications. <Magnetism> • Analog quartz watches are powered by a step motor that uses a magnet. Subjecting the watch to strong magnetism from the outside can cause the motor to operate improperly and prevent the watch from keeping time accurately. Do not allow the watch to come into close proximity to magnetic health devices (magnetic necklaces, magnetic elastic bands, etc.) or the magnets used in the latches of refrigerator doors, clasps used in handbags, the speaker of a cell phone, electromagnetic cooking devices and so on. 108 Precautionary items and usage limitations <Strong Shock> • Avoid dropping the watch or subjecting it to other strong impact. It may cause malfunctions and/or performance deterioration as well as damage to the case and bracelet. <Static Electricity> • The integrated circuits (IC) used in quartz watches are sensitive to static electricity. Please note the watch may operate erratically or not at all if exposed to intense static electricity. <Chemicals, Corrosive Gasses and Mercury> • If paint thinner, benzene or other solvents or products containing these solvents (including gasoline, nail-polish remover, cresol, bathroom cleaners and adhesives, water repellent, etc.) are allowed to come into contact with the watch, they may discolor, dissolve or crack the materials. Be careful when handling these chemicals. Contact with mercury such as that used in thermometers may also cause discoloration of the band and case. <Protective Stickers> • Be sure to remove any protective stickers that may be on your watch (case back, band, clasp, etc.). Otherwise, perspiration or moisture may enter the gaps between the protective stickers and the parts, which may result in a skin rash and/or corrosion of the metal parts. 109 Precautionary items and usage limitations CAUTION Always Keep Your Watch Clean • Rotate the crown while it is pressed in fully and press the buttons periodically so they do not become stuck due to accumulations of foreign matter. • The case and band of the watch come into direct contact with the skin. Corrosion of the metal or accumulated foreign matter may result in black residue coming from the bracelet when exposed to moisture or perspiration. Be sure to keep your watch clean at all times. • Be sure to periodically clean the bracelet and case of your watch to remove accumulated dirt and foreign matter. In rare circumstances, accumulated dirt, foreign matter may cause irritation with the skin. If you notice this, discontinue wearing the watch and consult your physician. • Be sure to periodically clean foreign matter and accumulated materials from the metal band, synthetic rubber strap (polyurethane) and/or metal case using a soft brush and mild soap. Be careful not to allow moisture on the case if your watch is not water resistant. • Leather bands may become discolored by perspiration or dirt. Always keep your leather band clean by wiping with a dry cloth. 110 Precautionary items and usage limitations Caring for Your Watch • Wipe any dirt or moisture such as perspiration from the case and crystal with a soft cloth. • For metallic, plastic or synthetic rubber (polyurethane) band, clean it with soap and a soft toothbrush. Be sure to thoroughly rinse the band after cleaning to remove any soap residue. • For a leather band, wipe off dirt using a dry cloth. • If you will not be using your watch for an extended period of time, carefully wipe off any perspiration, dirt or moisture and store in a proper location, avoiding locations subject to excessively high or low temperatures and high humidity. <When Luminous Paint is used for your watch> The paint on the dial and hands helps you with reading the time in a dark place. The luminous paint stores light (daylight or artificial light) and glows in a dark place. It is free from any radioactive substance or any other material harmful to a human body or environment. • The light emission will appear bright at first and then diminish as time passes. • The duration of the light (“glow”) will vary depending on the brightness, types of and distance from a light source, exposure time, and the amount of the paint. • The paint may not glow and/or may dissipate quickly if exposure to light was not sufficient. 111 Specifications Specifications and contents of this booklet are subject to change without prior notice.
