The watch is in the charge recovery mode. Wait until the recovery process is complete (about 15 minutes). The watch will recover more quickly if you place it in a brightly lit location.

If an alarm, hourly time signal, illumination and/or other power-intensive functions are used within a short period of time, the charging capacity of the battery will drop and cause the watch to go into a charge recovery mode. Function availability will be temporarily limited, but functionality will return after the battery recovers.
