I have placed a new battery in my lorus watch but do not understand when they say on the movement short circuit
Sometimes watch movements need to be reset after a battery change. This is not always the case, so if your watch is working OK you do not need to reset. If the watch is not operating properly then you will need to short-circuit two points inside the watch to reset it - this is usually done with something like a pair of fine point tweezers. With the back of the watch removed, look for contacts on the circuit board - usually marked as '+' and '-'. Use the points of the tweezers to briefly make a connection between the contacts. That should do it, but sometimes it needs to be repeated.
If you have no success with this, it might be easier to take it to anywhere that does battery replacements and let them sort it out.
