the watch beeps every hour on the hour.
Alarm Types
The types of alarm you get depends on the information you set.

the alarm to sound at the specific time, on the specific date you set.
• To set a 1-Month alarm

under “To set alarms”). This type of setting causes the alarm to sound every day at the
time you set, only during the month you set.

About the backlight
In any mode, press C to illuminate the display for about two seconds.
• The backlight of the watch employs an electro-luminescent (EL) light, which 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. This is
caused by a transformer that vibrates when the EL panel lights up. It does not
indicate malfunction of the watch.
• If the alarm time you set in the Alarm Mode is reached while the backlight is turned
on, the alarm tone will not start to sound until the backlight turns off.
TELEMEMO MODE
The Telememo Mode lets you store up to 30
pairs of name and telephone number data. Data
is automatically sorted based on the characters
of the name. You can recall data by scrolling
through it on the display.
• See the “CHARACTER LIST” at the back of
this manual for details on how the watch sorts
data.
• The data item on the display when you exit
the Telememo Mode appears first the next
time you enter the Telememo Mode.
To input new Telememo data

the new data display appears.
