4. Sufficiently open the locking tab of the charger and remove the watch from the charger.
* Approximately 7 hours is required for charging when the energy storage cell of the watch is completely discharged.
* Try to recharge the watch before the energy storage cell of the watch becomes completely discharged. There is no risk of overcharging no matter how long the watch is connected to the charger.
* When the LED does not light and the charge level indicator of the watch does not indicate that the watch is fully charged even if the watch has been attached to the charger, the 4 pcs. of size AA alkaline batteries of the charger are worn out. Replace all 4 pcs. of size AA alkaline batteries with fresh size AA alkaline batteries and repeat charging.
