Reference
This section contains more detailed and technical information about watch
operation. It also contains important precautions and notes about the various
features and functions of this watch.
Auto return features
If you leave a screen with flashing digits for two or three minutes without
performing any operation, the watch automatically saves any settings you
have made up to that point and exits the setting screen.
Data and Setting Scrolling
The D button is used to scroll through setting screen data on the display.
Holding down this button during a scroll operation scrolls through the data at
high speed.
Backlight Precautions
The backlight uses an LED (light-emitting diode) and a light guide panel that
cause the entire display to glow for easy reading in the dark.
In any mode, press B to illuminate the display for about one second.
The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed
under direct sunlight.
The backlight automatically stops illuminating whenever an alarm sounds.
Frequent use of the backlight shortens the battery life.
