Your High-T® watch forms part of the TISSOT® touch screen range and benefits from the most recent technical innovations, including the famous touch screen technology. It also offers you a fully digital ("matrix") display that allows you to choose the type of time display (analogue, digital or more innovative watch faces) and the customary functions of a watch (date, chronograph, timer, alarms, etc.), and to access other information services by simply touching the glass: weather, news, stock prices, sports results, etc. The radio signal used to transport this data also allows the time to be set automatically, whatever the time zone in which you are located, provided that you are in an area with radio coverage. With your High-T® watch, you can also receive personal messages. To start using your High-T®, follow the starting procedure described on page 6 of this document, activate the MSN® Direct services on www.msndirect.com and discover your watch and its functionalities with the help of this User's Manual!

However, no function can be activated if the crystal is in contact with a liquid; moreover, since FM reception does not work under water, your High-T® will not be able to receive information. The bracelet of your High-T® contains a metallic antenna required to receive information. Avoid twisting or deforming the bracelet, so as not to damage the antenna and thereby prevent satisfactory reception of information.

The warranty applies only if the certificate of warranty is dated, filled in completely and correctly, and stamped by an official TISSOT®** dealer ("valid certificate of warranty"). During the lifetime of this warranty, and on presentation of a valid warranty certificate, you are entitled to have any fault repaired free of charge. In the event of this repair work failing to restore your High-T® watch to normal conditions of use, TISSOT® S.A. undertakes to provide you with an identical replacement High-T® watch with similar characteristics. The warranty for the replacement watch expires twenty-four (24) months after the date of purchase (i.e. date of handover to customer) of the replacement watch. This manufacturer's warranty does not cover: - battery life; - normal wear and tear and ageing (e.g. scratched crystal; deterioration of the colour and/or material of non-metallic straps and chains, such as leather, textile and rubber); - any damage to any part of the watch resulting from abnormal/abusive use, lack of care, negligence, accidents (knocks, dents, crushing, broken crystal etc.), incorrect use of the watch and failure to comply with the operating instructions provided by TISSOT® S.A.; - indirect or consequential damages of any kind resulting from e.g. the use, operating failure, defects or inaccuracy of your High-T® watch; - the High-T® watch handled by non-authorized persons (e.g. for battery replacement, servicing or repairs) or whose original condition has deteriorated beyond TISSOT® S.A's control. This warranty: - is independent of any warranty that may be granted by the seller, for which he bears sole responsibility; - does not affect the purchaser's rights against the seller nor any other mandatory statutory rights the purchaser may have against the seller. The TISSOT® S.A. customer service organization ensures the perfect maintenance of your High-T® watch. If your watch needs care, entrust it to an official High-T® dealer or to an authorized High-T® Service Center appearing on the attached list: they can guarantee a service in accordance with TISSOT® S.A. standards. *TISSOT® SA, CH - 2400 Le Locle, Switzerland **High-T® Specialist Dealer in EU countries High-T® is a registered trademark www.tissot.ch 19/19 119_E / 06-04
