Operating the Timer
1. Press START/SPLIT to start the timer or restart it after a pause.
2. Press STOP/RESET to stop the countdown.
3. Hold STOP/RESET to reset the timer to the start value.
4. Hold STOP/RESET again to clear the timer to 0.
When the countdown reaches zero the watch will beep. You can press any
button to silence the beep. If you set the timer to repeat at the end of the count-
down, the repeat will continue until you press STOP/RESET. The display will show
R and a number to indicate the timer is repeating and how many times it has
repeated.
TIP: The timer might be useful when you want to be alerted at the
halfway point of an activity. For example, you go out knowing you
only have about two hours to spend on a hike. You set the timer for
60 minutes and when it beeps you know it’s time to turn around
and start heading back to the trail head. Timer information is not
connected to Review Mode.
NOTE: Press and hold START/SPLIT to quickly scroll through
all data.
ATTENTION: You will see the message NO DATA STORED if the
Chrono has never been run.
