Citizen 8712 Instruction Manual

To set the time, pull the crown out to the second click position. Turn the crown to set the desired time, ensuring the AM/PM setting is correct. Push the crown back to its original position once the time is set.
Inaccurate timekeeping can be caused by a low battery. Check if the battery needs replacement. If the issue persists, consider having the movement checked by an authorized service center.
To clean your watch, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the case and band. Avoid using solvents or chemicals. For metal bands, use a soft brush to remove dirt from between the links.
If your watch stops, it may need a battery replacement or servicing. Check the battery first and replace it if necessary. If the watch still doesn't work, have it inspected by a professional.
Pull the crown out to the first click position and turn it to adjust the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM to prevent damage to the date mechanism.
Check the water resistance rating on your watch. If it is rated for water resistance, you can swim with it. However, avoid pressing buttons while submerged.
Replacing the battery involves opening the case back, which should be done by a professional to avoid damaging the watch. Visit an authorized service center for battery replacement.
Store your watch in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Consider using a watch box to protect it from dust and scratches.
It is recommended to service your watch every 3-5 years to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
Check for the Citizen logo and serial number on the watch. Verify these details with the official Citizen website or an authorized dealer. Genuine watches should come with a warranty card and instruction manual.
