INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Congratulations on becoming the owner of a new Junghans
watch!
Junghans watches are and always have been something
special. They have made watchmaking and design history.
And we are still doing so today. The success story that
began in 1861 in Schramberg in the Black Forest continues
with each new model. Today, Junghans still manufactures
all watches on the historic company premises. From the first
design sketch, each watch is given its own identity. From the
design engineering of the individual components through
to the assembly, each step accompanied by quality checks.
Each watch therefore contains all the elements that distin-
guish a Junghans: style, passion, innovative spirit and preci-
sion right down to the tiniest detail. A watch for all those who
live their own style - and for that we can do no other than
congratulate you!

2. Starting your watch
Note on starting your watch
Your watch is delivered in power saving mode. To activate
the watch, briefly operate the corrector or pull the crown
and push it back to position A. The watch is set to CET when
delivered from the factory.
If the time display does not correspond to your local time,
we recommend you perform a manual time synchronisation
to obtain the exact radio-transmitted time. This may take up
to 15 minutes.
Alternatively, you can use the crown to adjust the time zone
or synchronise the time with the Junghans App.
Date
The Junghans MEGA has a perpetual calendar. There is
therefore no need to adjust the date manually.
3. Solar technology
Your Junghans MEGA Solar features state-of-the-art solar
technology. The wafer-thin solar cell under the light-trans-
parent dial of the watch converts light into electrical power.
This is then stored in a long-life power reservoir which pro-
vides an energy source for the multi-frequency radio-con-
trolled solar movement. When the energy reservoir is fully
charged, the watch has a power reserve of up to 3 months. In
power saving mode, the power reserve is 3 years.
To ensure that your Junghans MEGA Solar remains ready
for use at all times, it is best to keep it in a place where it
receives plenty of light. If ever the power storage becomes
completely discharged, place the watch in a direct source of
light so that it can recharge. The time required for charging
is dependent on the intensity of the light source and the
design of the solar dial.
Daily light supply to maintain function
The table below shows how long the watch needs to be
exposed to light each day in order to generate sufficient
electricity for normal daily operation without discharging the
storage.
