• The case and band of the watch come in direct contact with the skin in the same manner as
clothing. Metal corrosion as well as perspiration, dirt, dust and other unnoticed debris may soil
the cuffs and other parts of your clothing. Try to keep the watch clean at all times.
• Wearing of this watch may cause a rash or itching of the skin in people with sensitive skin or
depending on the wearer’s physical condition. If you notice that you skin is affected by the
watch, immediately stop wearing it and consult a physician.
<Cleaning the Watch>
• Use a soft cloth to wipe off dirt, perspiration and moisture from the case and crystal.
• Rinse off dirt from metal bands, plastic bands or rubber bands with water. Use a soft brush to
remove any dirt or debris stuck between the gaps in metal bands.
• Avoid the use of solvents (such as thinner or benzine) as they may damage the finish.
CAUTION
Precautions When Wearing the Watch
• Be careful while wearing the watch while holding an infant or child, by taking the watch off
beforehand, to prevent injury or other accident.
• Be careful when engaged in vigorous exercise or work to prevent injury and accidents to
yourself and others.
• Never wear the watch in a sauna or other locations where the watch can reach high
temperatures since this can cause burns.
CAUTION
Handling of the Band (Cautions when Putting
on and Taking Off the Watch)
Depending on the structure of the band buckle, be careful not to injure your fingernails when
putting on and taking off the watch.
<Temperatures>
The watch may not function or stop running if exposed to temperatures outside the range of 0°C
to 50°C (32°F to 122°F). In addition, although the liquid crystal display may also become
illegible outside this temperature range, it will return to normal when the watch is returned to
normal temperatures.
• Correct water depth measurement values are not displayed at temperatures outside the range
of +10°C to +40°C (50°F to 104°F).
• Data cannot be transferred outside the range of +10°C to +35°C (50°F to 95°F).
<Static Electricity>
Since the IC used in quartz watches is susceptible to static electricity, the display may become
incorrect if the watch is subjected to intense static electricity like that generated by a television
screen.
<Shocks>
Do not subject the watch to violent shocks such as that resulting from being dropped on the floor.
<Chemical Agents, Gases and Mercury>
Avoid using the watch in environments containing chemical agents and gases. If solvents such
as thinner or benzine, as well as articles containing such substances (including gasoline,
fingernail polish, cresol, bathroom cleaners and adhesives) become adhered to the watch, they
can cause discoloration, deterioration and cracking. Use ample caution when handling
chemicals. In addition, contact with mercury used in thermometers and so forth can cause the
case and band to become discolored.
<Storage>
• When not using the watch for an extended period of time, carefully wipe off any perspiration,
dirt or moisture from the watch and store in a location preferably free of high and low
temperatures, high humidity.
