Indicators described to the left appear in the Timekeeping Mode at Level 3 and  x
Level 4.
Exposing the watch to direct sunlight or other strong light may cause the battery  x
level hand to indicate a level that is momentarily higher than the actual battery
level. Because of this, you should wait for a short while after charging to check the
battery level.
Even if the battery level drops all the way to Level 5, you still will be able to  x
recharge the battery and use the watch again.
If you start charging from Level 5, the display of the watch will appear when the  x
battery reaches Level 2. At this time you should continue to expose the watch to
light until it charges up to Level 2 or Level 1.
The Home City will revert to TYO (Tokyo) whenever the battery drops down to  x
Level 5. If you are using a Home City setting that is not TYO (Tokyo), select the
Home City you want after the battery is charged suffi ciently.

Power Supply
The power supply of this watch uses a solar cell to generate electric power, which is
stored by a rechargeable battery.
Using or storing the watch where it is not exposed to light regularly or allowing it to
be blocked from light by your sleeve as you are wearing it can cause the power of
the rechargeable battery to run down.
To ensure stable operation, be sure to allow the watch to be exposed to light as
much as possible while you are wearing or storing it.
