2. Initial Setup

2.1. Initial Charge

As a solar-powered watch, the WV0091TY requires an initial charge before use. Expose the watch dial to direct sunlight or strong artificial light for several hours. Avoid covering the dial during charging. A full charge ensures optimal performance and power reserve.

2.2. Setting the Time and Date

1. Pull the crown (located on the right side of the watch case) out to the second click position. The second hand will stop.
2. Rotate the crown to set the hour and minute hands. Ensure the AM/PM is correctly set if the watch has a 24-hour indicator or date changes at midnight.
3. Push the crown back in to the first click position.
4. Rotate the crown to set the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM to prevent damage to the movement.
5. Push the crown fully back into the normal position to start the watch.

2.3. Adjusting the Metal Bracelet

The stainless steel bracelet can be adjusted by adding or removing links. This procedure typically requires specialized tools and is best performed by a qualified watch technician to avoid damage to the bracelet or clasp.

3. Operating the Watch

3.1. Basic Timekeeping

Once set, the watch will continuously display the current time. Ensure the watch receives regular exposure to light to maintain its solar charge.

3.2. Using the Chronograph Function

The chronograph allows for measuring elapsed time. Refer to the specific markings on your watch for subdial functions (e.g., 60-minute counter, 24-hour indicator).

• Press the upper pusher (button A) to start the chronograph.
• Press the upper pusher (button A) again to stop the chronograph.
• Press the lower pusher (button B) to reset the chronograph hands to zero.

3.3. Setting and Using the Alarm

The watch features an alarm function. Consult the detailed instructions provided in the full manufacturer's manual for precise alarm setting procedures, as this can vary by movement.

4. Maintenance and Care

4.1. Cleaning

Wipe the watch case and bracelet regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and perspiration. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid using chemical cleaners or solvents.

4.2. Water Resistance

While the watch may offer some level of water resistance, it is crucial to ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water. Avoid operating pushers or the crown while the watch is wet. Refer to the watch's case back for specific water resistance ratings (e.g., "WATER RESISTANT").

4.3. Solar Cell Care

To maintain the longevity and efficiency of the solar cell, avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures (hot or cold). Store the watch in an area where it can receive ambient light, even when not in use, to prevent complete discharge.

5. Troubleshooting

• Watch Not Running: If the watch stops or runs intermittently, it may be due to insufficient charge. Expose the watch to strong light for several hours.
• Incorrect Time/Date: Refer to Section 2.2 for instructions on how to correctly set the time and date. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in after setting.
• Chronograph Hands Not Resetting to Zero: If the chronograph hands do not return to the 12 o'clock position when reset, a calibration may be required. Consult the full manufacturer's manual for specific calibration steps, or contact customer support.
