NOTES u The electroluminescent panel loses its luminance as, the battery becomes weaker with use. Also, its luminance level decreases gradually with use.

u When the illuminating light becomes dim, replace the batteries.

If the light remains dim after the batteries are replaced, have the electroluminescent panel replaced by the retailer from whom the watch was purchased. u While the illuminating light is used, the watch gives out a slight noise.

However, this is normal and not a malfunction.

BATTERY CHANGE

Battery life : Approx. 2 years

Batteries : SEIKO SR626SW, 1 piece (for analogue display)

SEIKO CR2016, 1 piece (for digital display) l

The battery life may be less than 2 years if:

• the alarm is used more than once a day,

• the stopwatch is used more than one hour a day,

• the illuminating light is used more than once a day.

l

Even if either of the two batteries has run down, replace both of them with new ones. l As the batteries are inserted at the factory to check the function and performance of the watch, their actual lives once in your possession may be less than the specified period.

l When the batteries expire, be sure to replace them as soon as possible to prevent any malfunction.

l

We recommend that you contact an AUTHORIZED PULSAR DEALER for battery replacement. l

The watch is equipped with a battery life indicator that enables you to know when the battery needs to be replaced. When the indicator appears, EL backlight and sound (ALARM/ TIMER) are invalid.

25

l

Necessary procedure after battery change

After the battery is replaced with a new one, or when an abnormal display

(failing digits, etc.) appears, follow the procedures below to reset the builtin IC. The watch will resume its normal operation.

Press button A, B, C and D at the same time for 2 to 3 seconds until the display becomes blank, and “16-1-1 (FRI)” will be displayed as the buttons are released”. Before using the watch, set the time, calendar and alarm.

26

WARNING

l Do not remove the battery from the watch.

l If it is necessary to take out the battery, keep it out of the reach of children. If a child swallows it, consult a doctor immediately.

l Never short-circuit, tamper with or heat the battery, and never expose it to fire. The battery may burst, become very hot or catch fire.

CAUTION

l The battery is not rechargeable. Never attempt to recharge it, as this may cause battery leakage or damage to the battery.

TO PRESERVE THE QUALITY OF YOUR WATCH

WATER RESISTANCE

l Non-water resistant

If “WATER RESISTANT” is not inscribed on the case back, your watch is not water resistant, and care should be taken not to get it wet as water may damage the movement. If the watch becomes wet, we suggest that you have it checked by an AUTHORIZED PULSAR

DEALER or SERVICE CENTER.

l Water resistance (3 bar)

If “WATER RESISTANT” is inscribed on the case back, your watch is designed and manufactured to withstand up to 3 bar, such as acci dental contact with splashes of water or rain, but it is not designed for swimming or diving.

l Water resistance (5 bar)*

If “WATER RESISTANT 5 BAR” is inscribed on the case back, your watch is designed and manufactured to withstand up to

5 bar and is suitable for swimming, yachting and taking a shower.

l Water resistance (10 bar/15 bar/20 bar)*

If “WATER RESISTANT 10 BAR”,

“WATER RESISTANT 15 BAR” or

“WATER RESISTANT 20 BAR” is inscribed on the case back, your watch is designed and manufactured to withstand up to 10 bar/15 bar/20 bar and is suitable for taking a bath, shallow diving, but not for scuba diving.

We recommend that you wear a PULSAR Diver’s watch for scuba diving.

27

28

* Before using the water resistance 5, 10, 15 or 20 bar watch in water, be sure the crown is pushed in completely.

Do not operate the crown when the watch is wet or in water. If used in sea water, rinse the watch in fresh water and dry it completely.

* When taking a shower with the water resistance 5 bar watch, or taking a bath with the water resistance 10, 15 or 20 bar watch, be sure to observe the following:

• Do not operate the crown when the watch is wet.

• If the watch is left in warm water, a slight time loss or gain may be caused.

This condition, however, will be corrected when the watch returns to normal temperature.

NOTE:

Pressure in bar is a test pressure and should not be considered as corresponding to actual diving depth since swimming movement tends to increase the pressure at a given depth. Care should also be taken on diving into water.

TEMPERATURES

5

Your watch works with stable accuracy within a

5 and 35° C (41° F and 95° F).

Te m p e r a t u r e s o v e r

50° C (122° F) may cause battery leakage or shorten the battery life.

Do not leave your watch in very low temperatures below –5° C (+23° F) for a long time since the cold may cause a slight time loss or gain.

However, the above conditions will be corrected when the watch returns to normal temperature.

MAGNETISM

Y o u r w a t c h w i l l b e adversely af fected by strong magnetism. Keep it away from close contact with magnetic objects.

SHOCKS & VIBRATION

CARE OF CASE AND BRACELET

To prevent possible rusting of the case and bracelet caused by wipe them periodically with a soft dry cloth.

PERIODIC CHECK

Light activities will not affect your watch, but be watch or hit it against hard surfaces, as this may cause damage.

CHEMICALS

Be careful not to expose the watch to solvents, mercury, cosmetic spray, detergents, adhesives or paints. Otherwise, t h e c a s e , b r a c e l e t , e t c . m a y

It is recommended that the watch be checked once every 2 to 3 years. Have your watch checked by an

AUTHORIZED PULSAR
