A. DIVING WITH THIS WATCH

Only use this diving watch after undergoing correct instruction and training in diving and always obey the accompanying rules. Make sure you fully understand the handling of the watch and the caution items in order to use it correctly. Please note that the watch may not function correctly if you handle it other than as indicated in this instruction manual.

CAUTION

DIVING WITH THIS WATCH

This watchs depth meter function is not approved as a depth meter for official organizations. Use it as an auxiliary or backup instrument. Only use this watchs depth meter values as a guideline.

WARNING

DEPTH METER FUNCTION

Always use the buddy system when diving. This product is recommended for sports diving to depths of about 15-20m (50-65ft). Early battery replacement is recommended. A new battery will last approximately 2 years. (This will vary according to the frequency of use of the depth meter function.) Rest fully after diving as specified by safety rules. Riding in an airplane or moving to a high altitude too soon after diving can bring about decompression sickness.

CAUTION

FOR SAFE DIVING

Do not use this watch for diving in the following cases. When the low battery warning function is activated. ... When the life of the battery is nearing its end, the second hand moves in 2 second intervals. When the watch stops or exhibits any abnormal functioning. The depth measurement is outside the assured temperature range. ... The temperature range in which the accuracy of this watchs depth meter is guaranteed is +10C - +40C (50F - 104F). In potentially dangerous activities or conditions. ... This watch is not designed for use in maritime emergencies or to prevent sea disasters, etc. When using a helium enriched environment. ... This might cause breakdown or damage.

PROHIBITION

PROHIBITION WHEN DIVING

<

Before diving > Make sure that the crown is pushed firmly in and locked in place. Make sure that the band is firmly attached to the watch body. Make sure that there are no cracks, flaws or chips on the watch band or glass. Make sure that the register ring will rotate correctly. Make sure that the time and calendar are set correctly. Make sure that the depth alarm and diving time alarm are set correctly. Make sure that the second hand is moving correctly. * If the second hand is moving in 2 second increments, then the battery is low. Request battery replacement by Citizen at the place of purchase or send directly to a Citizen Service Center.

CAUTION

PRECAUTIONS FOR DIVING

12

13

< During diving > Avoid ascending very quickly to prevent your body from being affected by the bends, etc. Surface at a safe speed of within 9m/30ft. per minute. This ascending speed is in accordance with the U.S. Navy Diving Manual (1993 edition). Never operate the crown or any buttons except button A when underwater. Doing so may result in a fault such as poor water resistance. Be careful because the alarm may be hard to hear underwater because of the sound of your breathing. < After diving > After making sure that the crown is locked in place, wash the watch free of seawater, mud and sand using fresh water, then wipe the water off with a dry cloth. Do not attempt to remove the sensor cover and remove any dirt or debris clogging the sensor with a sharp instrument. If there is any debris, flush it out with fresh water. If you cannot do so, consult a Citizen Service Center.

CAUTION

DIVING AT HIGH ALTITUDE AND IN FRESHWATER

Be sure to complete special safety training before diving in fresh water or at high altitude. Do not use this watch at altitudes over 4,000 meters (13,124ft), because accurate measurement is not possible. This watch displays change in depth based on a standard of seawater (density 1.025), so the actual depth in fresh water will be 2.5% greater than the depth displayed. Example: 20m/66ft (indicated depth) X 1.025 = 20.5m/68ft (actual depth) The pressure sensor is calibrated to the surrounding pressure at a depth of 0m (0ft) when the watch is switched to Diving Modes. Sealevel is also set to 0m (0ft) when the watch is switched to Diving Modes in a lake at high altitude. However, do not use at an altitude of over 4,000m (13,124ft) because accurate measurement is not possible.

I. HOW TO USE THE DEPTH/DIVING TIME ALARM

There are the following 2 alarm functions in this watchs Diving Modes. 1 Depth alarm function: Set range: 1m-80m/5ft-260ft (1m/5ft units) The alarm sounds for 15 seconds when you reach the set depth while diving. After the alarm sounds once, if you continue diving deeper than the set depth then the alarm repeatedly sounds for 15 seconds every 1 minute. If you return to a shallower point than the set depth, the alarm stops. 2 Diving time alarm function: Set range: 5-310 minutes (5 minute units) The alarm sounds for 30 seconds when you exceed the set time after the dive starts. * This alarm only sounds once. You can stop both the depth alarm and the diving time alarm by pressing button A.

* In addition, this watch has a ascending speed warning function which alarm sounds for 10 seconds to warn you if the ascending speed exceeds 1.5m (5ft) in 10 seconds. * Be careful when using the various kinds of alarms because their sound might be difficult to hear depending on the surrounding circumstances (such as the sound of bubbles) or the way the watch is carried.

J. HOW TO USE THE DIVE MODE

Pressing button B when in any of the Diving Modes (Log Mode, Depth Alarm Mode and Diving Time Mode) switches the watch to Dive Mode. If you switch to this mode before diving, the depth measurement is always displayed during the dive. You can also check the diving time and the maximum depth by button operation during the dive. The surrounding pressure when this watch is switched from Time Modes to Diving Modes is set to 0m (0ft) as the depth measurement standard. Therefore, if there is an extreme change in atmospheric pressure after selecting Diving Modes and before actually diving, the display may be different from the actual depth. In order to carry out correct depth measurement, switch to Diving Modes just before diving.

[Diving alarm monitor] In Depth Alarm Mode or Diving Time Alarm Mode, if you keep button B pressed down while pressing button A, you can make the different alarms sound repeatedly for 4 seconds each in this sequence: depth alarm diving time alarm ascending speed warning alarm.

L. IN CASE OF THE FOLLOWING

[The second hand moves at 2-second intervals]
The battery is nearing the end of its life, and the low battery warning device is working. When this happens, replace the battery as soon as possible. (Even when this happens, the watch still keeps the correct time.) Note that the following cannot be done when the watch is in this state. 1. The alarms do not sound. 2. You can switch to Diving Modes, but not to Dive Mode. 3. If this function is activated with the depth measurement display, the diving alarm will not sound. If this happens, stop diving. Request battery replacement by Citizen at the place of purchase or send directly to a Citizen Service Center.

[When ER (error) is displayed during use]

When ER is displayed during use on land or when the watch is switched to Diving Modes. When the ER display is not cancelled even a long time after a dive is finished. In the above cases, there might be something wrong with the pressure sensor. In such a case, stop using the watch and consult someone at the place of purchase or your nearest Citizen Service Center.

[You cannot switch to another mode from Dive Mode]

If there is a pressure change of 1m/4ft or more while in Dive Mode in an environment where pressure changes occur for short periods of time (high altitude, in the airplane), the water depth measurement display does not return to 0.0m (0ft) even when you land, and you might be unable to cancel Dive Mode. If this happens, pull out the crown and Dive Mode will be cancelled. If you cancel Dive Mode in this way, the log data will not be recorded.

46

47

[If the watchs display or operation is abnormal]

1 Battery life The life of the battery is about 2 years after installation. < Approximate conditions of use > Time alarms: 15 seconds/day No. of dives: 50 dives/year (time of 1 dive: 1 hour) Depth alarm ... 45 seconds/dive Diving time alarm ... 30 seconds/dive The life of the battery may be shorter depending on how much the alarms, chronograph, etc. are used and depending on the number of dives and the time of each dive. 2 The first battery The battery already installed in the watch when you purchase it is a monitor battery for looking at the functions and performance. This battery might run out within 2 years of purchase.

3 Battery replacement (1) All battery replacement comes under Citizen Service Center repairs, so request it at the place of purchase or send directly to a Citizen Service Center. (2) Checks such as a water-resistance inspection and any necessary packing replacement are carried out during battery replacement. (3) All the log memo, from the maximum depth memo onwards, is erased by battery replacement, so record it beforehand in a logbook. (4) If a battery that has reached the end of its life is left in the watch, it will cause damage by leaking. You are advised to replace the battery immediately. (5) If you use the watch abroad for a long time, you may not be able to receive after-sales service, depending on the location, so you are advised to replace the battery before you leave. (6) You are charged for battery replacement and the accompanying inspection and parts replacement even within the warranty period.

O. OTHER FUNCTIONS
1. REGISTER RING
The register ring means the rotating bezel fitted around the watch body. This is used when measuring elapsed time or time 40 remaining. < Using the register ring > Before starting a dive, rotate the register ring to the left so that the mark is lined up with the minute hand. You can know the elapsed time from that point by reading what the minute hand indicates on the scale on the register ring. Example: In the diagram on the left, the register ring indicates that 10 minutes have elapsed from the start Time elapsed: 10 minutes of the dive (from the mark position).

2. NO DECOMPRESSION LIMITS
The range of time when it is unnecessary to stop to decompress while surfacing from a dive is determined by the depth and time of the dive. These values are referred to as No Decompression Limits. Use these as estimates when diving. No Decompression Limits, based on the U.S. Navy Diving Manual (1993), are printed on the band of this watch. (Some models may not have this chart.) No Caution: The no decompression limit <Reading the chart> Decompression is different depending on body condiLimits DEPTH. m - -N.D. TIME tion or personal differences.

CAUTION
The register ring can only be rotated in a counterclockwise direction in order to prevent operation error. Trying to force the register ring to rotate in a clockwise direction will damage it. When you use the register ring, allow some leeway in the set time and always use it as an approximate guide.

1. Notes on Water-Resistance a. This divers watch has the water-resistant construction for diving up to 200m and withstands water pressure up to 200m deep. The crown is screw-lock type. Tighten the screw completely before use. b. All maintenance services including battery replacement must be carried out by a Citizen Service Center. c. Subject the watch to a water-resistance check at the time of battery replacement or every one or two years to maintain the water-resistance of the watch

2. Pressure Sensor Never disassemble the sensor cover which protects the pressure sensor. Be careful that foreign objects such as sand, dust or other matter does not enter into the sensor. If such objects have entered into the sensor, wash it away with fresh water. Do not use alcohol, gasoline, thinner or other chemical substances. If you cannot clean the sensor, take the watch to a Citizen Service Center.

3. Watch Band If the watchband shows cracks, replace it with a new band. When replacing the watchband also replace the spring bars connecting the watch and the band. 4. Water resistance This divers watch is designed to resist water pressure to a maximum depth of 200 meters. Before using this watch under water, push the crown in and tighten the screw lock completely. All services after sale including battery replacement are provided by the Citizen Service Center. Never have the case back opened or the screws on the sensor loosened at facilities other than the Citizen Service Center. In order to maintain water-resistance, we recommend that you have the watch checked at the Citizen Service Center at the time of battery replacement once every one or two years.

5. Temperature Avoid exposing the watch to direct sunlight or leaving it in extremely hot or cold locations for a long period of time. This will cause malfunctioning and shorten the life of the battery. This may cause your watch to gain or lose time and affect its other functions. 6. Shock This watch will withstand the bumps and jars normally incurred in daily use and while playing such non-contact sports as golf and catchball. Dropping the watch on the floor or otherwise imparting severe shock to it may cause malfunctioning or damage. 7. Magnetic Fields This watch is antimagnetic up to 60 gauss and not affected by the magnetic fields produced by ordinary household electric appliances. If used in the immediate vicinity of strong magnetism, however, the watchs functions may temporarily be affected. 8. Static electricity The integrated circuits used in the watch are sensitive to static electricity. If exposed to intense static electricity, the watchs display may lose its accuracy.

9.Chemicals and Gases Avoid wearing the watch in the presence of strong chemicals or gases. If the watch comes in contact with such solvents as thinner and benzine or products containing materials such as gasoline, nail polish, detergent or adhesive, its components may discolor, dissolve or crack. Be especially careful to avoid chemicals. The watchcase or band may discolor if they come in contact with mercury from a broken thermometer or other equipment. 10. Luminous Display In some watches, Luminous paint is applied to the hands of the watch for use in dark areas. This does not cause any health problems since the amount of luminous paint used in the watch is well within the limit allowed and is protected by the glass. Even if the amount used is extremely small, luminous paint is a hazardous substance. If the glass is broken, avoid touching the paint and bring it immediately to the Citizen Service Center for repair or replacement.

11. Safekeeping If you do not use the watch for an extended period of time, wipe off perspiration, soil and moisture thoroughly and keep it in a place not exposed to extremely high or low temperatures or high humidity. Dont leave a dead battery in the watch for a long time. Always be sure to replace it with new one. If battery fluid leaks out, it may damage movement components. 12. Keep Your Watch Clean Wipe off soil and moisture from the glass with a soft, absorbent cloth. If you wear the watch when the back side of the case and watchband is soiled they may cause a skin rash as they come in direct contact with your skin. Keep your watch clean also to avoid staining your cuffs. How to clean the watchband: Metal band Wash soiled parts with a tooth brush in mild, soapy water. Rubber band Wash in water. Do not use solvent.
