[. . . ] In this case, charge the watch referring to "ENERGY DEPLETION FOREWARNING FUNCTION", and then, follow the procedure below. TIME RELAY FUNCTION While the power save function is working, the built-in IC continues to compute the time though the hands have stopped. As a certain amount of electricity is generated by swinging the watch, the time relay function is activated, and the hands are adjusted automatically to the time retained inside the watch. English If the watch is charged fully as the power save function is activated, the time relay function remains operable for approximately four years. * The time period varies depending on the amount of power reserve stored in the KINETIC E. S. U. CROWN Pull out to the first click. * Pull out and push in within one second. How to activate the time relay function Note: If your watch has a screw lock type crown, turn the crown counterclockwise to unscrew it, and then, pull it out. After using the crown, push it back in to the normal position, and then, turn it clockwise to screw it in completely. Caution: Do not pull out the crown to the second click while the power save function is in operation. Otherwise, it is turned off, and the time data retained inside the watch will be erased, thus disabling the time relay function. 6 Push in to the normal position. * The hands will stop as the power save function is activated. Caution: Do not pull out the crown to the second click before activating the time relay function. Otherwise, the time data retained inside the watch will be erased, thus disabling the time relay function. Swing the watch from side to side for 2 to 3 seconds. 7 English 1. The hour and minute hands move quickly to indicate the current time computed by the IC, setting AM and PM properly. 2. The built-in IC computes the time in the 24-hour indication, making a distinction between AM and PM periods. It does not compute the date, and the time relay function will not adjust the date. If the power save function has been active for more than 1 day before the time relay function is activated, be sure to adjust the date to the current date. If the power save function has been in operation for several months before the time relay function is activated, the time indicated by the hands may include a certain amount of time loss or gain that has accumulated during those months. The second hand moves quickly to indicate the current second, and then continues moving at one-second intervals. 4. If the power reserve decreases to an extremely low level while the power save function is in operation, the time relay function may not be activated by swinging the watch. In this case, set the time manually, and charge the watch referring to "ENERGY DEPLETION FOREWARNING FUNCTION". Notes: 1. No additional benefit is obtained by swinging the watch longer or with greater vigor. When the watch is swung, the oscillating weight in the generating system rotates to drive the mechanism. As it rotates, it gives out a sound, which is not a malfunction. Remarks on using the time relay function 1. When using the watch for the first time after it is purchased, it is necessary to adjust the time and date as the watch has been adjusted to the time of the area where SEIKO's factory is located. 8 9 English HOW TO SET THE TIME AND DATE 1. Pull out the crown to the first click and turn it counterclockwise to set the previous day's date. Pull out the crown to the second click when the second hand is at the 12 o'clock position, and advance the hands by turning the crown counterclockwise to set the desired date. Push back the crown completely in accordance with a time signal. change, the time is set for the P. M. [. . . ] Even if it is further swung after being fully charged, no malfunction will result. Even if the watch is worn on your arm, it will not be charged while your arm is not in motion. POWER RESERVE IN YOUR SEIKO KINETIC WATCH The electric energy generated while the watch is worn on your wrist is stored in the KINETIC E. S. U. It is a power source completely different from conventional batteries for watches and does not require any periodical replacement. How to charge the watch 1. Swing the watch from side to side approximately 500 times. * Swing rhythmically at a rate of twice a second. [. . . ]
