functions of this watch.
Button Operation Tone
The button operation tone sounds any time you press one
of the watch’s buttons. You can turn the button operation
tone on or off as desired.

display), hold down C to toggle the button operation tone
on (MUTE indicator not displayed) and off (MUTE

• The MUTE indicator is displayed in all modes when the button operation tone is
turned off.

• If you leave the watch in the Alarm Mode or Hand Setting Mode for two or three
minutes without performing any operation, it automatically changes to the

without performing any operation, the watch automatically saves any settings you
have made up to that point and exits the setting screen.
