Backlight Precautions
The backlight uses an EL (electro-luminescent) panel that causes the entire
display to glow for easy reading in the dark.
•The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after
very long use.
•The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed
under direct sunlight.
•The watch may emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated.
This is due to vibration of the EL panel used for illumination, and does not
indicate malfunction.
•Frequent use of the backlight shortens the battery life.
