L U M I B R I T E WAT C H

If your watch is a LORUS LUMIBRITE watch, it has following features. LORUS LUMIBRITE watches absorb and store light energy from natural and artificial light sources and emit light in the dark. They are made of environmentally friendly material, and therefore, are harmless to human beings and the environment. With a full charge, LORUS LUMIBRITE watches glow in the dark hours longer than conventional luminous watches of this type. If exposed to a light of more than 500 lux (i.e., the brightness of a typical office) for approximately 10 minutes, or direct sunlight for 2 minutes, they will glow for hours. Since LORUS LUMIBRITE watches emit the light they store, the brightness will decrease gradually over time. The length of time they will glow may also differ slightly depending on such factors as the brightness of and distance from the light source used to charge the watch.

The battery SEIKO SR920SW, Maxwell SR920SW, SONY SR920SW, Matsushita SR920SW or EVEREADY 371,which powers your watch, should last approximately 2 years. However, because it is inserted at the factory, the actual life of the battery once in your possession may be less than the specified period. Be sure to replace the battery to prevent any possible malfunction as soon as it runs down. To replace the battery, we recommend taking the watch to a local watch repair shop. Note: If the stopwatch is used more than 60 minutes a day, the battery life may be shorter than the above specified period.

Caution: Leather straps are not water resistant except so indicated, even if the watch head is water resistant. ALLERGIC REACTION Because the case and band touch the skin directly, it is important to clean them regularly. If not, shirt sleeves may be stained and those with delicate skin may develop a rash. Please wear the watch with some play to avoid any possible allergic reaction. If you develop a rash on your wrist, stop wearing and consult a physician. MAGNETISM Your watch will be adversely affected by strong magnetism.Keep it away from close contact with magnetic objects. SHOCKS AND VIBRATIONS Your watch may be worn for normal sports activities, but be careful not to drop it or hit it on hard surfaces. TEMPERATURE Your watch is preadjusted so that constant accuracy may be insured at normal temperature.
