I have replaced a battery in a 1980s Pulsar.

A sticker over the battery states "Short (AC) and (+) after replacing

I didn't and it works.

There is a hole with AC and an arrow by it.

I am no expert, so wonder what this instruction means.

All Clear, a digital watch uses a computer chip for the display and functions, if it is not reset then errors can result in the display and functions.

some movements use a AC terminal, others you have to hold the 4 buttons down until the display turns on all the elements.
