Energy (power) is generated in the generator by the force of this rotation.

You may be able to hear the internal sound of the watch. This is the sound of the generator moving.

2. ChargingThe generated energy (power) is stored in the battery.

3. DrivingThe hands indicate the time using a motor that is driven by the energy (power) in the battery.

Charging with Energy

To charge one day‘s (24 hours‘) worth of energy

There are the following two methods. Use the approximate values as a guide.

Swinging the watchApprox. 250 times

Wearing the watch while performing daily activitiesApprox. 8 hours per day

Swinging the watch

To start the watch from the stopped state, charge the battery by swinging the watch.

Swing the watch in the directions indicated by the arrows in the figure. The second hand begins 2-seconds handmovement.

If you continue swinging the watch back and forth approximately 250 times, the second hand will change tonormal 1-second hand movement. The battery will be charged with approximately one day‘s worth of energy.

Note:❏ The most efficient way to charge the battery is to swing the watch back and forth approximately 20 cm twice within 1

second.

❏ Efficient charging will not be possible if the watch is swung extremely quickly and aggressively.

❏ You may be able to hear the sound of the generator moving inside the watch. Please note that this is not abnormal.

U “Features of This Product” on page 9

❏ The remaining amount of energy can be checked from the indicator display.

U “Checking the Remaining Amount of Energy” on page 16

❏ An overcharge prevention mechanism ensures the watch is safe even when charging is continued from the fullycharged state.

Wearing the watch while performing daily activities

Even if you do not charge the battery by swinging the watch, it can be charged naturally simply by the motion ofyour wrist during the daily activities you perform while wearing the watch. To enable the watch to operatecontinuously for a long period of time, as a guide we recommend wearing it 5 days (8 hours per day) per week.

A Check the position of the second hand and then press the button.

The second hand advances quickly. Check how many seconds it advances.

Note:❏ Indicator display can be performed up to twice consecutively.

Even if you perform indicator display twice consecutively, check the number of seconds from just one of the times.

To perform indicator display a third time, press the button after the second hand has returned to normal handmovement.

❏ The indicated running time may be slightly longer immediately after swinging the watch. Check the running timeagain after waiting approximately 10 to 15 minutes.

B Check how many seconds the second hand advances.

Please read the following "About Battery Exhaustion Protection Function" section to understand watchbehavior when it is left for a long time.

To maintain a constant and stable energy level, it is recommended that you always wear the watch on yourwrist.

About Battery Exhaustion Protection FunctionIn order to save energy, the watch may stop moving its hands if the watch is left for a certain period of timeregardless of the remaining amount of energy.

The time period until the watch stops moving its hands varies by remaining amount of energy. Refer to thefollowing table.

For example, when the number of quickly advanced seconds is 5 secondsThe remaining amount of energy is 5 to 59%, however, the watch may stop moving its hands if it is left for two daysat the earliest.

❏ If the second hand performs 2-seconds hand movement after the restart, wear the watch for as long as possibleeven after the second hand has returned to normal hand movement.

❏ After the second hand returns to normal hand movement, adjust the time.

Notification when remaining amount of energy is low

When the second hand is performing 2-seconds hand movement, this indicates that the watch may stop withinapproximately 24 hours.
