Auto light switch precautions � Avoid wearing the watch on the inside of your wrist. Doing so causes the auto light switch to operate when it is not needed, which shortens battery life. � The backlight turns off in about one second, even if you keep the watch pointed towards your face. � The backlight may not light if the face of the watch is more than 15 degrees off the parallel as shown below. Make sure that the back of your hand is parallel to the ground.
Parallel to ground More than 15 degrees too high More than 15 degrees too low

Hour

Minutes � Static electricity or magnetic force can interfere with proper operation of the auto light switch. If the backlight does not light, try moving the watch back to the starting position (parallel with the ground) and then tilt it back toward you again. If this does not work, drop your arm all the way down so it hangs at your side, and then bring it back up again. � Under certain conditions the backlight may not light until about one second or less after turn the face of the watch towards you. This does not necessarily indicate malfunction of the backlight.

3. While hour or minutes is selected (flashing), press C to increase the setting or A to decrease it. � When setting the alarm time using the 12-hour format, take care to set the time correctly as a.m. (A indicator) or p.m. (P indicator). 4. After the alarm time is the way you want it, press D to return to the initial Alarm Mode screen.

Daily Alarm Operation
The alarm sounds at the preset time each day for about 20 seconds, or until you stop it by pressing any button. To test the alarm Hold down C to sound the alarm.

Exercise Stopwatch Mode Precautions
� The values for the number of calories burned produced by this watch include both calories normally burned through normal metabolism and rest and extra calories burned by jogging or running. � This watch is set up to calculate calories burned by women while jogging. Men should increase the values produced by this watch by 5%. � You can use the lap time measurement to time how long it takes to complete a specific portion (such as a single lap) of a race. � You can use split time measurement to time how long it takes to get from the start to a specific point in a race. � Whenever a lap time or split time is on the display in the Exercise Stopwatch Mode, the graphic area shows the difference between the current and last lap.

Animated Figures
Animation area

� While the stopwatch is running, the animation are shows either a pig ( ), a leopard ( ), or a person ( ), depending on the number of calories burned. The animation area of the display shows animated figures when you preform certain button operations. � In the Timekeeping Mode, the animation area normally shows the day of the week. Different animated figures appear at 00, 20, and 40 seconds. Exercise Stopwatch Mode memory management � Measuring time with the stopwatch causes the date, elapsed time, and calories burned to be stored under a run number. If you measured lap and split times, they are also stored, along with a best lap time. � This watch has enough memory to store up to 60 records. Date, run number, and calories burned take up one record. Each time (elapsed time, lap time, split time, best lap) takes up one record. The following shows some examples of how memory can be used, but other combinations are also possible. Data Configuration Elapsed time only (plus date, run number, calories) 58 lap or split times (plus date, run number, calories, best time) Maximum Number of Measurements 30 1

Auto Return Operations

� If you leave a screen with flashing digits on the display for two or three minutes without performing any operation, the watch automatically saves anything you have input up to that point and exits the setting screen. � After you perform an operation in any mode (except for the Exercise Stopwatch Mode), pressing B returns to the Timekeeping Mode.

Data and Setting Scrolling
The A and C buttons are used in various modes and screens to scroll through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a scroll operation scrolls through the data at high speed.

� When memory becomes full, the next stopwatch measurement operation automatically deletes the oldest record number to make room for the new data. Note that data is deleted in record number units, so all split/lap times under the run number are deleted. � The lap/split number flashes on the display when an ongoing stopwatch operation causes memory to become full.

Basic Data
The term basic data refers to information about pacer value, your current weight, age, and stride length. � Be sure to update basic data values whenever the person using the watch changes. Pacer Value The speed of the pacer signal is determined by the pacer value, which is the number of beats per minute. You can set the pacer value in increments of 5, in the range of 100 to 200. Age You can set the age value in 1-year increments in the range from 13 to 19 years. In the range from 20 to 70, you can set the age value in 10-year increments. Weight You can set your current weight value in increments of 1 kg, in the range of 30 to 150 kg. Those lighter than 30 kg should use the minimum setting, while those heavier than 150 kg should use the maximum setting. Stride Length You can set stride length values in increment of 5 cm, in the range of 40 to 190 cm. The following examples illustrate how you can calculate values for these setting. � 239 steps required to jog around a 300-meter track. ÷ 300 (meters) 239 (steps) = 1.255 (approximately 126 cm) � 25 steps required to run the length of a tennis court (23.77 meters). ÷ 23.77 (meters) 25 (steps) = 0.9508 (approximately 95 cm)

12-hour/24-hour Timekeeping Formats

The 12-hour/24-hour timekeeping format you select in the Timekeeping Mode is also applied in the Alarm Mode. � In the Timekeeping Mode (except when making setting), press C to switch between the 12-hour and 24-hour formats. � With the 12-hour format, the P (PM) indicator appears to the left of the hour digits for times in the range of noon to 11:59 pm and the A (AM) indicator appears to the left of the hour digits for times in the range of midnight to 11:59 am. � With the 24-hour format, times are indicated in the range of 00:00 to 23:59, without any indicator. � The year can be set in the range of 1995 to 2039. � The watch�s built-in full automatic calendar automatically make allowances for different month lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no reason to change it except after the replacement of the watch�s battery.

Timekeeping Mode Notes

Backlight Precautions
� The electro-luminescent (EL) panel loses illuminating power after very long use. � The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight. � The watch will emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. It does not indicate malfunction of the watch. � The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds. � Normally the backlight lights when you press the L button. In the Exercise Stopwatch Mode, pressing A or C also causes the backlight to light for about one second.
