TACHYMETER
(for models with tachymeter scale on the dial)
To measure the hourly average speed of a vehicle

Use the stopwatch to determine
how many seconds it takes to go
1 km or 1 mile.
Ex. 1

MIN.
Tachymeter scale indicated by
STOPWATCH second hand gives
the average speed per hour.
Tachymeter scale: “90”
“90” (tachymeter scale figure) x 1 (km or mile)
= 90 km/h or mph
* Tachymeter scale can be used only when the time required is less than 60 seconds.
Ex. 2: If the measuring distance is extended to 2 km or miles or shortened to 0.5 km or miles
and STOPWATCH second hand indicates “90” on tachymeter scale:
“90” (tachymeter scale figure) x 2 (km or mile) = 180 km/h or mph
“90” (tachymeter scale figure) x 0.5 (km or mile) = 45 km/h or mph

Tachymeter scale indicated by
STOPWATCH second hand gives
the average number of jobs ac-
complished per hour.
Tachymeter scale: “180”
“180” (tachymeter scale figure) x 1 job
= 180 jobs/hour
Ex. 2: If 15 jobs are completed in 20 seconds:
“180” (tachymeter scale figure) x 15 jobs = 2700 jobs/hour

BATTERY CHANGE
The miniature battery which powers your watch should last approximately
2 years. However, because the battery is inserted at the factory to check
the function and performance of the watch, its actual life once in your
possession may be less than the specified period. When the battery
expires, be sure to replace it as soon as possible to prevent any malfunction.
For battery replacement, we recommend that you contact an AUTHORIZED
SEIKO DEALER and request SEIKO SR927W battery.

WARNING
● Do not remove the battery from the watch.
● If it is necessary to take out the battery, keep it out of the reach of children. If
a child swallows it, consult a doctor immediately.
17
CAUTION
● Never short-circuit, heat or otherwise tamper with the battery, and never
expose it to fire. The battery may burst, become very hot or catch fire.
● The battery is not rechargeable. Never attempt to recharge it, as this may cause
battery leakage or damage to the battery.
