The backlight uses an EL (electro-luminescent) panel that

causes the entire display to glow for easy reading in the

dark. The watch’s auto light switch automatically turns on

the backlight when you angle the watch towards your face.

Warning!

• Never try to read your watch when mountain climbing or hiking in areas that

are dark or in areas with poor footing. Doing so is dangerous and can result

in serious personal injury.

• Never try to read your watch when running where there is danger of acci-

dents, especially in locations where there might be vehicular or pedestrian

traffic. Doing so is dangerous and can result in serious personal injury.

motorcycle or any other motor vehicle. Doing so is dangerous and can result

in a traffic accident and serious personal injury.

• When you are wearing the watch, make sure that its auto light switch is turned

off before riding on a bicycle or operating a motorcycle or any other motor

vehicle. Sudden and unintended operation of the auto light switch can create a

EXERCISE STOPWATCH MODE

The Exercise Stopwatch Mode provides you with a 1/100-

second stopwatch for measuring elapsed time and lap/

split times. Elapsed time measured in the Exercise Stop-

watch Mode is used in combination with data you input in

the Basic Data Input Mode to calculate the number of cal-

ories you burn while jogging or running.

• Whenever you perform a stopwatch time measurement

operation, the date, elapsed time, and calories burned

are automatically stored in memory. Data in memory can

be viewed using the Recall Mode.

Measuring Elapsed Time

1. In the Exercise Stopwatch Mode, press

A to start the

stopwatch.

2. Press

A to stop the stopwatch.

• You can resume the measurement operation by press-

ing

A again.

3. Press

C to clear the stopwatch to all zeros.

Stopping and Clearing the Stopwatch

• Pressing

A while the stopwatch is running stops it and

leaves the measured time on the display. Pressing

A at

this time resumes the stopwatch operation, starting from

the displayed time.

• Pressing

C while the stopwatch is stopped and a time is on the display clears the

stopwatch to all zeros. Note that you must press

C to clear the stopwatch to all

zeros before you can perform certain stopwatch operations.

• When the stopwatch is cleared, the upper part of the display periodically changes

between the mode indicator and remaining memory value.

Recording Lap or Split Times

1. Press

A to start the stopwatch.

2. Press

C to display the timing up to that point. Stop-

watch timing continues internally.

• When you press

C, the lap (or split) time remain on the

display for about seven seconds. Then the screen auto-

matically changes back to the stopwatch (elapsed time)

screen.

• Holding down

D for about one second causes the dis-

play to change between the lap time (

LAP

displayed)

and split time (

SPL

displayed).

3. You can repeat step 2 as many times as you want.

4. Press

A to stop the time measurement.

• About seven seconds after you press

A to stop the time measurement, a value

showing the number of calories burned appears on the display.

5. After the number of calories burned value appears, press

C to clear the stopwatch

to all zeros.

• The data is stored as lap or split times depending on the last operation you perform.

If you measure a lap time and then a split time, all the lap/split times stored in

memory are shown as split times in the Recall Mode.
