● When the measurement is stopped or split time is measured, it moves to indicate the elapsed 1/20 seconds.
● After the stopwatch is restarted or split time is released, the STOPWATCH 1/
20-second hand moves for about 10 minutes and stops automatically.
● In the same manner, if the stopwatch is stopped and restarted repeatedly or split time is measured and released repeatedly, the STOPWATCH 1/20second hand moves for about 10 minutes and stops automatically.
● Before using the stopwatch, be sure to check that the crown is set at the normal position and that the STOPWATCH hands are reset to the “0” position.
* If the STOPWATCH hands do not return to the “0” position when the stopwatch is reset to “0”, follow the procedure in “SETTING THE TIME AND ADJUSTING

TACHYMETER
[for models with tachymeter scale on the dial]
12
To measure the hourly average speed of a vehicle
[ Ex. 1 ]
STOPWATCH second hand:
40 seconds
1 Use the stopwatch to determine how many seconds it takes to go 1 km or
▲
1 mile.
2
Tachymeter scale indicated by
STOPWATCH second hand gives the average speed per hour.
Tachymeter scale: “90”
“90” (tachymeter scale figure) x
1 (km or mile) = 90 km/h or mph
Tachymeter scale can be used only when the time required is less than 60 seconds.
Ex. 2: If the measuring distance is extended to 2 km or miles or shortened to
0.5 km or miles and STOPWATCH second hand indicates “90” on tachymeter scale:
“90” (tachymeter scale figure) x 2 (km or mile) = 180 km/h or mph
“90” (tachymeter scale figure) x 0.5 (km or mile) = 45 km/h or mph
To measure the hourly rate of operation
[ Ex. 1 ]
STOPWATCH second hand:
20 seconds
1
Use the stopwatch to measure the
▲ time required to complete 1 job.
2 Tachymeter scale indicated by
STOPWATCH second hand gives the average number of jobs accomplished per hour.
Tachymeter scale: “180”
“180” (tachymeter scale figure) x
1 job = 180 jobs/hour
Ex. 2: If 15 jobs are completed in 20 seconds:
“180” (tachymeter scale figure) x 15 jobs = 2700 jobs/hour

BATTERY CHANGE
3
Years
Battery life : Approx. 3 years
Battery : SEIKO SR927SW
● If the stopwatch is used for more than 2 hours a day, the battery life may be less than the specified period.
● As the battery is inserted at the factory to check the function and performance of the watch, its actual life once in your possession may be less than the specified period.
● When the battery expires, be sure to replace it as soon as possible to prevent any malfunction.
● We recommend that you contact an AUTHORIZED PULSAR DEALER for battery replacement.
● After the battery is replaced with a new one, set the time/calendar and adjust the stopwatch hand position.
● Battery life indicator
When the battery nears its end, the small second hand moves at two-second intervals instead of normal one-second intervals. In that case, have the battery replaced with a new one as soon as possible.
15
16
* The watch remains accurate while the small second hand is moving at two-second intervals.
WARNING
● Do not remove the battery from the watch.
● 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.
● 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
● 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
● 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.
● 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 accidental contact with splashes of water or rain, but it is not designed for swimming or diving.
● Water resistance (5 bar)*
5 bar WR
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.
● Water resistance (10 bar/15 bar/20 bar)*
10/15/20 bar WR
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.
17
* 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 with soapy water or shampoo.
• 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.
