3. Opsætning og indledende vikling

3.1 Indledende vikling

As an automatic watch, the SRPD87 is powered by the movement of your wrist. If the watch has stopped or is running low on power, it needs to be wound manually to start. To do this:

1. Ensure the crown is in the normal (pushed-in) position.
2. Rotate the crown clockwise approximately 30-40 times. This will provide enough power reserve to start the watch and allow the automatic winding mechanism to take over with normal wear.

The second hand should begin to move. If the watch is worn daily for 8-10 hours, manual winding should not be necessary.

3.2 Setting the Time and Day/Date

1. Pull the crown out to the first click: This position is for setting the day and date.
2. Indstil dagen: Rotate the crown counter-clockwise to adjust the day of the week.
3. Indstil datoen: Drej kronen med uret for at justere datoen.
4. Vigtig: Avoid setting the day and date between 9:00 PM and 4:00 AM (21:00 - 04:00) as this can damage the movement. If you need to adjust during this period, first set the time outside this range, then adjust the day/date, and finally reset the time.
5. Pull the crown out to the second click: This position stops the second hand and is for setting the time.
6. Indstil tiden: Rotate the crown to move the hour and minute hands. Advance the hands past 12 o'clock to ensure the AM/PM is correctly set (the day/date will change when passing midnight).
7. Tryk kronen tilbage på plads: Once the time, day, and date are set, push the crown fully back into the normal position to restart the second hand and ensure water resistance.

4. Betjening af uret

4.1 Automatisk urværk

Your SEIKO 5 Sports watch is powered by an automatic mechanical movement. This means it winds itself through the natural motion of your arm while wearing it. When fully wound, the watch has a power reserve that allows it to continue running for approximately 41 hours when not worn. If the watch stops, refer to Section 3.1 for initial winding.

4.2 Vandtæthed

The SEIKO SRPD87 watch is water-resistant up to 10 bar (100 meters/330 feet). This rating makes it suitable for swimming, showering, and snorkeling. It is ikke suitable for scuba diving. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before exposing the watch to water.

4.3 Ensrettet roterende bezel

The bezel rotates only in a counter-clockwise direction. This feature is useful for measuring elapsed time. To use it:

1. Rotate the bezel so that the '0' mark aligns with the minute hand at the start of your timed activity.
2. Read the elapsed time by observing the position of the minute hand against the bezel's scale.

5. Vedligeholdelse og pleje

5.1 Rengøring

Regularly wipe the watch case and crystal with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and fingerprints. If the watch is exposed to saltwater, rinse it thoroughly with fresh water and dry it completely with a soft cloth. For the nylon strap, gentle hand washing with mild soap and water, followed by air drying, is recommended.

5.2 Temperature and Magnetic Fields

Avoid exposing your watch to extreme temperatures (below 5°C or above 35°C) or sudden temperature changes. Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields, such as those produced by speakers, refrigerators, or mobile phones, as this can affect timekeeping accuracy.

5.3 Opbevaring

When not wearing the watch, store it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. If storing for an extended period, ensure it is fully wound before storage to maintain the movement's lubrication.

5.4 Periodisk eftersyn

It is recommended to have your watch inspected by an authorized SEIKO service center every 2-3 years to ensure optimal performance and water resistance. Gaskets and seals may degrade over time and require replacement.

6. Fejlfinding

• Uret er stoppet: As an automatic watch, it requires motion to operate. If it has stopped, manually wind it by rotating the crown clockwise 30-40 times (with the crown pushed in). Ensure you wear it regularly for sufficient winding.
• Timekeeping is inaccurate: Automatic watches can gain or lose a few seconds per day. Significant inaccuracy may be due to insufficient winding, exposure to strong magnetic fields, or a need for servicing. Try fully winding the watch and keeping it away from electronics.
• Day/Date does not change or changes at the wrong time: Ensure the time is set correctly, paying attention to AM/PM. Avoid setting the day/date between 9:00 PM and 4:00 AM. If the issue persists, a service may be required.
• Kondensation inde i krystallen: Dette indikerer et tab af vandtæthed. Tag straks uret til et autoriseret servicecenter for at forhindre yderligere skade på urværket.
