HOW TO START THE WATCH 1. Swing the watch from side to side. * Swing rhythmically at a rate of twice a second. 2. Charge the KINETIC E.S.U. sufficiently. 3. Set the time/calendar and put on the watch. POWER RESERVE INDICATOR 1. Press the button at the 2 o’clock position.

HOW TO SET TIME When setting the time, ensure that the watch is working: the second hand is moving at one-second intervals. • In a case that the watch is completely stopped due to a shortage of stored electrical energy, recharge the watch until the second hand resumes the normal one-second interval movement, and then reset the time and calendar. • The 24-hour hand can be used in two ways. Since the time setting procedure differs according to the usage, please choose the method before setting the time. Method 1 Simply using the 24-hour hand to show the 24-hour time as an AM/PM indicator. • This is the standard usage for the 24-hour hand. Method 2 Using the 24-hour hand to indicate the time in a different time zone. • For instance, by setting the 24-hour hand to GMT while setting the hour and minute hands to indicate the time in your area, you can easily check GMT with the 24-hour hand at any time. HOW TO SET THE 24-HOUR HAND AS A REGULAR 24-HOUR INDICATOR <When method 1 usage is selected> 1. Pull out the crown to the second click. 2. Turn the crown to set the 24-hour and minute hands to the current time. 3. Push the crown back in simultaneously with a time signal. 4. Pull out the crown to the first click. 5. Turn the crown to set the hour hand to the current hour. 6. Push the crown back in upon completion of time setting. HOW TO SET THE 24-HOUR HAND AS A REGULAR 24-HOUR INDICATOR <When method 2 usage is selected> 1. Pull out the crown to the second click. 2. Turn the crown to set the 24-hour and minute hands to the time in the “different time zone area” you wish to set. 3. Push the crown back in simultaneously with a time signal. 4. Pull out the crown to the first click. 5. Turn the crown to set the hour hand to the current hour. 6. Push the crown back in upon completion of time setting. HOW TO SET THE DATE • This watch is designed so that the date changes one day by turning the hour hand two full rotations in the same way as in “the time difference adjustment function.” • The date advances one day by turning the hour hand two full rotations clockwise, while the date is set back one day by turning the hour hand two full rotations counterclockwise. • After setting the time, it is necessary to set the date. Manual date adjustment is required on the first day after a month that has less than 31 days. 1. Pull out the crown to the first click. 2. Each time the hour hand makes two full rotations by turning the crown, the date is adjusted one day. 3. After completing the date setting, check the position of the hour hand once again and push the crown back in. HOW TO ADJUST THE TIME DIFFERENCE • While staying in a place in a different time zone area from where you live, you can conveniently set the watch to indicate the local time in the place where you are staying without stopping the watch. • The time difference adjustment function is interrelated with the date display. If the time difference is correctly adjusted, the watch displays the correct date of the place where you are staying. 1. Pull out the crown to the first click. 2. Turn the crown to set the hour hand to indicate the time of the place where you are staying. The hour hand is independently set to the current hour. 3. After completing the time difference adjustment, check the position of the hour hand once again and push the crown back in.
