CAUTION
** Do not use the watch for saturation diving.
While diving
NOTES:
G Diving is an inherently hazardous form of recreation and it is essential that you strictly
observe all instructions for use and maintenance of the watch set forth in this booklet for
safety’s sake. Do not attempt to dive using this watch unless you have been properly trained
in diving.
NOTES:
1
Do not set the date between 9:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m. Otherwise, it may not change properly.
* If it is necessary to set the date during that time period, first change the time to any time
outside it, set the date and then reset the correct time.
• While you are underwater, never unscrew the crown or pull it out.
• Take care not to hit the watch against hard objects such as rocks.
• Bezel rotation may become slightly harder in the water but this is not a malfunction.

When the instant-start function is activated by exposing the watch to light, Second hand
starts moving at 2-second intervals immediately, but the energy stored in the rechargeable
battery is not sufficient. If the watch is turned away from the light, it may stop operating.
TEMPERATURES
2
When setting Hour hand, check that AM/PM is correctly set.
Your watch works with stable accuracy within a temperature range of
+50°C
* The watch is so designed that the date changes once in 24 hours. Turn the hands past
the 12 o’clock marker to determine whether the watch is set for the A.M. or P.M. period.
If the date changes, the time is set for the A.M. period. If the date does not change,
the time is set for the P.M. period.
When setting Minute hand, first advance it 4 to 5 minutes ahead of the desired time and then
turn it back to the exact minute.

• After making a dive, be sure to rinse the watch in fresh water, and wash out all seawater,
soil, sand, etc.
• After cleaning the watch in fresh water, be sure to wipe it thoroughly dry to prevent possible
rust on the case.
• To maintain the excellent water resistant quality of the watch, we recommend that you
have the watch overhauled and that you have the gaskets for case back and crown
replaced by an AUTHORIZED SEIKO DEALER periodically.
