Citizen B690 Instruction Manual

To set the time on your Citizen B690 watch, pull the crown out to the second position. Rotate the crown to set the correct time, then push the crown back into place.
Ensure that the watch is exposed to sufficient light, as it is solar-powered. Place it under direct sunlight for several hours. If the problem persists, check for obstructions on the solar panel or consider a battery replacement if necessary.
Pull the crown out to the first position and rotate it until the correct date appears. Ensure you adjust the date when the time is set to 6:00 to avoid damaging the movement.
This may occur if the watch is not sufficiently charged. Ensure it receives adequate light exposure during the day. Prolonged periods without light can deplete the power reserve.
Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the watch case and band. Avoid submerging the watch in water unless it is water-resistant to an appropriate depth. Dry with a soft cloth.
The Citizen B690 watch typically has a water resistance rating of 30 meters, meaning it can withstand splashes or brief immersion in water but is not suitable for swimming or bathing.
When fully charged, the watch should function continuously without stopping. If your watch has a power reserve indicator, it will show a full charge.
If the hands are misaligned, perform a hand alignment adjustment by pulling out the crown and manually setting the hands to the correct positions. If the issue persists, a professional service may be required.
Yes, you can replace the strap yourself. Use a spring bar tool to remove the existing strap and attach a new one. Ensure the new strap is compatible with your watch model.
It is recommended to have your Citizen B690 watch serviced every 3 to 5 years to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Regular servicing can prevent potential issues.
