1.How to replace the battery

・ Please use the specified battery to keep the stable performance for a long time.
・ Please install the minus part of the battery towards inside of the watch.
・ When installing or changing the battery, it is recommended to remove two battery clamp screws first,
then remove the battery clamp not to damage the movement parts.
If you install the battery without removing the battery clamp, please install the battery from [→] direction
as illustrated below Fig.[1].
・ Install the battery under the circuit cover as illustrated below Fig.[1] and Fig.[2].
・ System-reset is not required.
・ After installing the battery, set the current time and then set the 1/20 second chronograph hand,
second chronograph hand and hour/minute chronograph hand at "0" position.

2.How to remove the stem
When removing the stem, pull out the crown at 1st click position and then remove the stem while
pressing the hollow portion of setting lever by tweezers. (Refer to the Fig.[3].)

Fig.[3] Crown pulled out at 1st click

3.How to set the hands

・ Each hand moves at step interval. Set the each hand at correct position according to the scale on the
dial in order not to make a mistake in reading time.
・ Do not turn the hand forcibly.

4.How to remove the hands

・ When removing the hands, use exclusive fork-shaped tools.
・ Do not remove the dial under the condition that any hands are set.

5.How to test the accuracy

When measuring the time accuracy, use specified Quartz Tester and change the gate time in 10 seconds.

YM92A Attention of casing part structure Rev. : 02

1.Minute hand
The center wheel have a safety stopper structure to prevent the minute hand from being pressed too
much. However pay attention to the contact between hour hand and minute hand.

2.Holding ring for dial

Use the specified holding ring for dial to prevent rotation of the movement inside of the case in order to
stabilize the button operation.
Refer to the [Holding ring for dial] page instruction as to the shape and tolerance.

3.Case
Use the metal case back to prevent from the movement mal-function by static electricity.

4.Hour wheel
When set and remove the hour hand repeatedly, it may reduce the hand fixing torque because the
hour wheel is made by plastic.
To ensure the enough fixing torque, it isn't recommended to re-assemble the hour hand more than five
times.

Chronograph function

・ 1/20 second increments up to 11:59' 59" 95.

・ After the chronograph is started or restarted or split time is released, 1/20 second chronograph hand
moves about 10 minutes and automatically stops at the "0" position.
When the measurement is stopped or split time is measured, it moves to indicate the elapsed 1/20
seconds.
・ When the measurement reaches 12 hours, the chronograph automatically stops counting.

If the stopwatch hands are not in the "0" position, follow the procedures below to set them.
(1) Pull the crown out to the 2nd click position.
- When the stopwatch is measuring, if the crown is pulled out to the 2nd click position, it will be automatically reset.
(2) Set the stopwatch 1/20 second hand.
Press the button A for 2 seconds.
- The stopwatch 1/20 second hand turns a full round and can now be set to the correct position.
Press the button B repeatedly to set it to the "0" position.
(3) Set the stopwatch second hand.
Press the button A for 2 seconds.
- The stopwatch second hand turns a full round and can now be set to the correct position.
Press the button B repeatedly to set it to the "0" position.
(4) Set the stopwatch hour and minute hands.
Press the button A for 2 seconds.
- The stopwatch hour and minute hands turns a full round and can now be set to the correct position.
Press the button B repeatedly to set it to the "0" position.
Press the button A for 2 seconds here will allow you to resume the procedure again as indicated by the arrow if necessary.

(5) Push the crown back to the normal position.

Tips : When setting the hands, the hand moves quickly if the button B is kept pressed.
 How to set time
(1) Pull the crown out to the 2nd click position when the second hand is at the 12 o'clock position.
- When the stopwatch is measuring, if the crown is pulled out to the 2nd click position, it will automatically reset the
stopwatch hands to "0" position.
(2) Turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands.
Take a.m./p.m. into consideration when setting the hour and minute hands to the desired time.
- The hands be set to the time a few minutes ahead of the current time, taking into consideration the time required to adjust
the stopwatch hands position if necessary.
- When setting the minute hand, advance it 4 to 5 minutes ahead of the desired time and then turn it back to the exact time.
(3) Push the crown back to the normal position.

 How to set date

(1) Pull the crown out to the 1st click position.
(2) Turn the crown to set the date.
- Do not set the date between 9:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m..
(3) Push the crown back to the normal position.
Tips : When the date change during daytime, it happens when a.m./p.m. is wrongly set. Advance the hour hand by 12 hours.

 How to use stopwatch function

• The stopwatch can measure up to 11:59'59''95 in 1/20 second increments.
• When the measurement reaches 12 hours, the stopwatch automatically stops counting.

• The stopwatch 1/20 second hand is capable of timing 10 minutes. (1 second x 600 times)
• The stopwatch second hand is capable of timing 12 hours. (60 seconds x 720 times)
• After the stopwatch is started or restarted or split time is released, the stopwatch 1/20 second hand moves
about 10 minutes and automatically stops at the "0" position.
When the measurement is stopped or split time is measured, it moves to indicate the elapsed 1/20 seconds.
• Before using the stopwatch, be sure to check that the crown is set at the normal position and that the
stopwatch hands are reset to the "0" position.
- If the stopwatch hands do not return to the "0" position when the stopwatch is reset to "0", follow the procedure in
"Stopwatch hand position adjustment".

 Power depletion warning function

When the battery nears its end, the small second hand moves at two-second intervals instead of the normal
one-second intervals. In that case, have the battery replaced with a new one as soon as possible.
- The watch remains accurate while the small second hand is moving at two-second intervals.
