Tips for Solar Charging
To maximize the battery life of your watch, follow these tips.
• When you are wearing the watch, avoid covering the face with your sleeve.
• When you are not wearing the watch, point the face toward sunlight.
NOTE: The watch protects itself from overheating and stops charging automatically if the internal
temperature exceeds the solar charging temperature threshold (Specifications, page 81).
NOTE: The watch does not solar charge when connected to an external power source or when the battery is
full.
