Charging your watch
This watch has a rechargeable cell which is charged
by exposing the dial to light, such as direct
sunlight or fluorescent lamps (refer to page
2bc
for
charging guidelines).
After taking off the watch, put it in a location
where the dial is exposed to bright light, such as by
a window.
For optimal performance, be sure to:
• Expose the watch to direct sunlight half a day at least once a week.
• Avoid leaving the watch in dark places for long periods of time.
Caution
• Do not charge the watch at high temperature (about 60°C/140°F or higher).
• If the watch is obscured from light by long sleeves frequently, supplemental
charging may be needed to ensure continual operation. Refer to page
2bc
.
When the watch reaches a low charge state (insufficient charge warning
function)
When the power reserve becomes low, the second
hand moves once every two seconds. This is the
insufficient charge warning function. Be sure to
fully charge your watch as outlined on page
2bc
.
• When the watch is sufficiently charged, the
second hand will move normally.
• If you do not charge the watch for 10 days or
longer after the insufficient charge warning movement has begun,
the watch will be depleted of all power and stop.
Caution
• When in the insufficient charge warning state, the current time and date are
indicated. However, other features and functions of the watch will not be
available for use.

Caution when connecting to iPhone
• Connecting to iPhone requires a substantial amount of power, especially if
receiving many notifications. Be sure to keep your watch fully charged when
utilizing this feature.
• We recommend disconnecting with iPhone when not needed (see page
6a
).
• Connecting feature does affect battery usage on your iPhone. Be sure to
check the charge level of your iPhone.
Power save function
If your watch is not exposed to light sufficient for charging for 30
minutes or more, the second hand will stop in order to conserve
power. Although the second hand is not moving, the correct seconds
are stored in memory.
The power save function cannot be activated manually; it is an
automatic feature only. The power save function does not operate
under the following conditions:
• The crown is in position
or .
• The current mode is Chronograph [
CHR
] or Calendar [
CAL
].
• The second hand is indicating a notification (“
MAIL
”/ “
CALL
”/ “
LL
”).
Canceling the power save function
The power save function is automatically canceled when the watch
is exposed to light sufficient for charging. The second hand will then
resume normal movement.
• The power save function will also be canceled if a notification is
received from your iPhone. Note: the watch must be sufficiently
charged and the dedicated app running on your iPhone in order to
receive notifications.
• If the watch is in the power save state for long period of time, adjust
the time and date before use through the iPhone connection (see
page
6c
) or manually (see page
8b
).
