The backlight of this watch employs an electro-luminescent (EL) light, which loses
its illuminating power after very long term use.
The watch will emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is
caused by a transistor that vibrates when the EL panel lights up. It does not indicate
malfunction of the watch.
