Carefully remove the rubber
ring and the plastic cover.
Use a flat head screwdriver to
slide the battery out of its
position and replace it with
a new CR2032 battery only.
(note the correct polarity)
Beside the battery are two
small springs which function
as speaker contacts.

removing the battery as
these springs are very small
and loose. When replacing

standing upright. The plastic
covering fits correctly in
one position only.
Please check that all parts
have been correctly
positioned before the watch
