3. Configuració i funcionament inicial

3.1 Donar corda al rellotge

As an automatic watch, the Autokinetic 1062M-4 is powered by the motion of your wrist. For initial startup or after a period of inactivity, it is recommended to manually wind the watch:

1. Unscrew the crown (if applicable) and pull it out to position 1 (first click).
2. Rotate the crown clockwise approximately 20-30 times. This will build up an initial power reserve.
3. Push the crown back to its original position and screw it in (if applicable) to ensure water resistance.

The watch will then continue to wind itself through normal daily wear.

3.2 Configuració de l'hora

1. Unscrew the crown (if applicable) and pull it out to position 2 (second click). The seconds hand will stop.
2. Rotate the crown to move the hands clockwise until the correct time is displayed. To avoid confusion between AM/PM for the date change, advance the hands past 12 o'clock. If the date changes, it is midnight. Continue to set the time.
3. Once the time is set, push the crown back to position 0 and screw it in (if applicable).

3.3 Configuració de la data

1. Unscrew the crown (if applicable) and pull it out to position 1 (first click).
2. Rotate the crown counter-clockwise to adjust the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this is when the date change mechanism is engaged and could be damaged. If the current time falls within this period, first set the time outside this range, then set the date, and finally reset the correct time.
3. Once the date is set, push the crown back to position 0 and screw it in (if applicable).

3.4 Adjusting the Milanese Bracelet

The Milanese bracelet features a deployant clasp that can be adjusted for a comfortable fit. Typically, this involves:

1. Locate the small lever or clasp on the underside of the deployant buckle.
2. Carefully lift this lever using a small, flat tool (e.g., a small screwdriver or spring bar tool).
3. Slide the buckle along the mesh bracelet to the desired position.
4. Press the lever back down firmly to secure the buckle in place. Ensure it clicks securely to prevent accidental opening.

Note: If you are unsure about adjusting the bracelet, it is recommended to seek assistance from a professional watchmaker to avoid damage.

4. Operating Your Automatic Watch

4.1 Mecanisme de bobinatge automàtic

Your UMF RUHLA Autokinetic 1062M-4 watch is equipped with an automatic (self-winding) mechanical movement. This means that the mainspring is wound by the natural motion of your arm while wearing the watch. A rotor inside the watch rotates with your movements, transferring energy to the mainspring.

For the watch to maintain its power reserve, it should be worn regularly. If the watch is not worn for an extended period, it will stop. Simply wind it manually as described in Section 3.1 or wear it for several hours to restart it.

4.2 Power Reserve Indicator

The watch features an "Energy Level" indicator on the dial, which shows the remaining power reserve. This indicator helps you monitor how much power your watch has stored. The markings typically range from "start" (low power) to "1 day", "2 days", "1 month", and "4-6 months" (full power reserve). Ensure the indicator shows sufficient power for continuous operation.
