If the watch is in another ode (other than the Tiekeeping Mode) when the 10 or 11 hour point is reached, the watch beeps but the ode does not change. UTO RLL topwatch Mode lar Mode KLIGHT This watch features an electroluinescent (L) backlight that helps you easily read the face, even in total darkness. Its auto light switch autoatically lights the watch face whenever you turn your wrist towards your face. The auto light switch on indicator is shown on the display in all odes while the auto light switch is on. In order to protect against running down the battery, the auto light switch is autoatically turned off approxiately six hours after you turn it on. Repeat the above procedure to turn the auto light switch back on if you want. ressing in any ode (except for the Recall Mode) illuinates the display for about two seconds, regardless of the auto light switch on/off setting. Notes The backlight of the watch eploys an electroluinescent (L) light, which loses illuinating power after very long use. Frequent use of the backlight shortens the battery life. The illuination provided by the backlight ay be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight. The watch will eit an audible sound whenever the display is illuinated. It does not indicate alfunction of the watch. The backlight autoatically turns off whenever an alar sounds. bout the auto light switch While the auto light switch is turned on, the backlight autoatically lights for about two seconds in any ode whenever you position your wrist as described below. Iportant! void wearing the watch on the inside of your wrist. oing so causes the auto light switch to operate when it is not needed, which shortens battery life. Moving the watch to a position that is parallel to the ground and then tilting it towards you ore than 40 degrees causes the backlight to illuinate. To anually turn on the backlight In any ode (except for the Recall Mode), press to illuinate the display for about two seconds. arallel to ground More than 40 To switch the auto light switch on and off In the Tiekeeping Mode, hold down for one or two seconds to turn the auto light switch on and off. uto light switch on indicator The backlight ay not illuinate if the face of the watch is ore than 15 degrees off parallel as shown below.

2 1998/ The backlight turns off in about two seconds, even if you keep the watch pointed towards your face. tatic electricity or agnetic force can interfere with proper operation of the auto light switch. If the backlight does not illuinate, try oving the watch back to the starting position (parallel with the ground) and then tilt it back toward you again. If this does not work, drop your ar all the way down so it hangs at your side, and then bring it back up again. Under certain conditions the backlight ay not light until about one second or less after turn the face of the watch towards you. This does not necessarily indicate alfunction of the backlight. Warning! Never try to read your watch when ountain clibing or hiking in areas that are dark or in areas with poor footing. oing so is dangerous and can result in serious personal injury. Never try to read your watch when running where there is the danger of accidents, especially in locations where there ight be vehicular or pedestrian traffic. oing so is dangerous and can result in serious personal injury. Never try to read your watch when riding on a bicycle or when operating a otorcycle or any other otor vehicle. oing so is dangerous and can result in a traffic accident and serious personal injury. When you are wearing the watch, ake sure that its auto light switch is turned off before riding on a bicycle or operating a otorcycle or any other otor vehicle. udden and unintended operation of the auto light switch can create a distraction, which can result in a traffic accident and serious personal injury. ay of week Graphic display Month ay Year M indicator Hour TIMKING FUNTION Minutes econds You can set the tie and date in the Tiekeeping Mode, which you can enter using.

Hold down until the displayed value changes to. Holding down causes the essage LR to appear on the display, followed by the value changing to. This watch features a built-in agnetic bearing sensor that detects terrestrial agnetis. This eans that the northern direction indicated by this watch is agnetic north, which is soewhat different fro true polar north. The agnetic north pole is located in northern anada, while the agnetic south pole is in southern ustralia. Note that the difference between agnetic north and true north as easured with all agnetic copasses tends to be greater as one gets closer to either of the agnetic poles. You should also reeber that soe aps indicate true north (instead of agnetic north), and so you should ake allowances when using such aps with this watch. Location Using the igital opass when you are near a source of strong agnetis can cause large errors in readings. ecause of this, you should avoid using the igital opass while in the vicinity of the following types of objects: peranent agnets (agnetic necklaces, etc.), concentrations of etal (etal doors, lockers, etc.), high tension wires, aerial wires, household appliances (TVs, personal coputers, washing achines, freezers, etc.) ccurate direction easureents are ipossible while in a train, boat, air plane, etc. ccurate easureents are also ipossible indoors, especially inside ferroconcrete structures. This is because the etal fraework of such structures picks up agnetis fro appliances, etc. torage The precision of the copass ay deteriorate if the watch becoes agnetized. ecause of this, you should be sure to store the watch away fro agnets or any other sources of strong agnetis, including: peranent agnets (agnetic necklaces, etc.) and household appliances (TVs, personal coputers, washing achines, freezers, etc.) Whenever you suspect that the watch ay have becoe agnetized, perfor one of the calibration procedures under alibrating the igital opass. alibrating the igital opass Whenever you suspect that the readings produced by the igital opass are wrong, you should calibrate it. You can use either one of two calibration procedures: bidirectional calibration or northerly calibration. You should use bidirectional calibration when you want to calibrate the igital opass to operate within an area exposed to agnetic force. This type of calibration should be used if the watch becoe agnetized for any reason. With northerly calibration, you teach the watch which way is north (which you have to deterine with another copass or soe other eans). You could use this calibration procedure, for exaple, to set the watch to indicate true north instead of agnetic north. Iportant! If you want to perfor both bidirectional and northerly calibration, be sure to perfor bidirectional calibration first, and then perfor northerly calibration. This is necessary because bidirectional calibration cancels any previously set northerly calibration setting. If you do not perfor any button operation for two or three inutes while either calibration procedure is in progress (while the agnetic north indicator is flashing at the 12 or 6 o clock position), the watch autoatically returns to the igital opass Mode. The ore correctly you perfor bidirectional calibration, the better the accuracy of your igital opass readouts. You should perfor bidirectional calibration whenever you change environents where you use the igital opass, and whenever you feel that the igital opass is producing incorrect readings. To perfor bidirectional calibration 1. While in the igital opass Mode (Noral screen), hold down until the upper display changes to show 1. t this tie, the agnetic north indicator flashes at the 12 o clock position to indicate that the watch is ready to calibrate the first direction. 2. lace the watch on a level surface, and RING press to calibrate the first direction. When the calibration procedure is coplete, the essage OK appears in the upper display. This soon changes to 2 and the agnetic north indicator flashes at the 6 o clock position to indicate that the watch is ready for the second direction. 3. Rotate the watch 180 degrees. 4. ress again to calibrate the second direction. When the calibration procedure is coplete, the essage OK appears in the upper display. fter a short while, the watch autoatically returns to the igital opass Mode. recautions about bidirectional calibration You can use any two opposing directions for bidirectional calibration. You ust, however, ake sure that they are 180 degrees opposite each other. Reeber that if you perfor the procedure incorrectly, you will get wrong readings fro the igital opass. o not ove the watch during the one or two seconds (fro the point you press up to the point that OK appears in the upper display) that the calibration of each direction is in progress. If you do, the essage RR appears in the upper display. When this happens, restart the bidirectional calibration procedure fro the beginning. The appearance of RR during bidirectional calibration can also be caused by local interference. If you suspect that this is the case, ove to another location and try the procedure again. You should perfor bidirectional calibration in an environent that is the sae as that where you plan to be using the igital opass. If you plan to use it in an open field, for exaple, calibrate in an open field. To perfor northerly calibration 1. While in the igital opass Mode (Noral screen), hold down until the upper display changes to show ress to start the northerly calibration procedure. t this tie, the indicator N appears in the upper display. 3. lace the watch on a level surface, and RING position it so that its 12 o clock position points north (as easured with another copass). 4. ress to start the calibration operation. When the calibration procedure is coplete, the essage OK appears in the upper display. fter a short while, the watch autoatically returns to the igital opass Mode. HNGING TH MURMNT UNIT You can change the easured values displayed by the watch between the following units. ltitude: eters () feet (ft) Teperatures: elsius () Fahrenheit ( F) aroetric ressure: hecto-pascals/illibars (ha/b) incheshg (inhg) oe countries call to this unit as hecto-pascal (ha), while other countries call it illibars (b). It really akes no difference, because 1 ha = 1 b. In this anual, we will refer to ha/b or ha (b). Iportant! ertain easureent functions are autoatically terinated when you change the easureent units. e sure that you perfor this operation before starting actual easureents. hanging the altitude unit of easureent autoatically switches off the altitude alar, and sets the alar s value to zero. hanging the baroetric pressure unit of easureent autoatically restarts the baroetric pressure graph fro a new value. hanging any of the units of easureent iediately starts to display newly easured data in the unit you specify. It also affects the unit of easureent for any data already stored in eory.

Hold down until OFF (or the teperature value) appears flashing in the ha b display. The data on the display is flashing because it is selected. 4. ress to change the selection in the following sequence. Teperature djustent /ft ha b ha(b)/inhg aroetric ressure djustent / F 5. Use to select the unit (/ F, ha (b)/ inhg or /ft) you want. 6. ress or to set the currently selected unit. 7. fter aking your selection, press to return to the Tiekeeping Mode (aroetric ressure/teperature screen). LTIMTR FUNTION built-in altieter uses a pressure sensor to detect the current air pressure which is then used to estiate the current altitude in accordance with I (International tandard tosphere) values for altitude and air pressure. If you preset a reference altitude, the watch will also calculate the current relative altitude based on your preset value. ltieter functions also include data storage eory and an altitude alar. Iportant! This watch estiates altitude based on air pressure. This eans that altitude readings for the sae location ay vary if air pressure changes. udden changes in the weather ake it ipossible to produce accurate altitude readings. This watch eploys a seiconductor pressure sensor, which is affected by teperature changes. When taking altitude easureents, be sure to do so while ensuring that the watch is not exposed to teperature changes. o not use this watch while participating in sports where there are sudden altitude changes. lso, do not use this watch for applications that deand professional or industrial level precision. This watch should not be used while engaging in the following activities: sky diving, hang gliding, paragliding, gyrocopter riding, glider riding, etc. pplications When no reference altitude is preset: The watch produces approxiate altitude readings. When a reference altitude is preset: efore beginning the clib, set the reference altitude to 0 at the foot of the ountain. This akes it possible to deterine the difference in altitude between the reference point and your destination. To deterine the height of a tall building, set the reference altitude to 0 on the ground floor. Note, however, that if the building is pressurized or air conditioned, you ay not be able to get a good reading. To deterine the difference in altitude between your house and the another location, set the reference altitude to 0 at your house, and then check the reading when you arrive at the other location. bout altitude easureents There are two types of altitude easureents: those for displayed data (ltieter Mode easureents) and those for eory data (see Meory easureents ). ltieter ode easureent This type of easureent is perfored only when the watch is in the ltieter Mode. s soon as you enter the ltieter Mode, easureents are taken every five seconds for the first three inutes. fter that, easureents are taken every two inutes. The display unit for ltieter Mode easureents is 5 (20 feet), and the easureent range is 0 to 6,000 (0 to 19,680 feet). The easured altitude ay be a negative value in cases where there is a reference altitude value set or because of certain atospheric conditions. Understanding the altieter display Use to enter the ltieter Mode. Note that once you enter the ltieter Mode, the watch beeps for about three seconds and autoatically returns to the Tiekeeping Mode if you do not press any button for 10 or 11 hours. 1 urrent teperature 1 LTI flashes while a easureent is being taken every five seconds. It does not flash during easureents taken every two inutes. 2 UTO flashes on the display while a eory easureent is in progress. The indicator stops flashing while no easureent is being perfored. 3 L appears on the display when the altitude alar is switched on.

With eory easureent, the watch continuously perfors easureents whenever the inutes in the Tiekeeping Mode reach 00, 15, 30, or 45, until you switch eory easureents off. The watch continues to take easureents regardless of whether or not you change odes, so you can keep a running log of altitude and teperature changes autoatically. bout the eory... The eory ite stored by the watch consists of the current altitude, plus the date, tie, and teperature. ata is stored in the sae sequence that it is input. Meory can hold a total of 50 sets of data, which is enough to store 12 hours and 15 inutes of eory data. ee To recall altitude easureent data fro eory for details on how to recall eory data.

8 1998/ QUTION & NWR Question: What causes incorrect direction readings? nswer: Incorrect bidirectional calibration. erfor bidirectional calibration. Reeber that bidirectional calibration is required whenever batteries are replaced. Nearby source of strong agnetis, such as a household appliance, a large steel bridge, a steel bea, overhead wires, etc., or an attept to perfor igital opass operation on a train, boat, etc. Move away fro large etal objects and try again. Note that digital copass operation cannot be perfored inside a train, boat, etc. Question: What causes the igital opass to produce different readings at the sae location? nswer: irection being easured is soewhere between two easurable directions (N and NNW, for exaple). The igital opass is designed to indicate any one of 16 different directions. If you ove the 12 o clock position slightly to the left or right (to ove it off of the point between the two easurable directions), the igital opass should consistently produce the sae reading. Magnetis generated by nearby high-tension wires are interfering with reception of terrestrial agnetis. Move away fro the high-tension wires and try again. Question: What does it ean when appears in place of a direction? nswer: This is the abnoral agnetic field indicator. It eans that strong agnetis is being generated nearby. Move away fro the source of strong agnetis and try again. Question: Why a I having probles perforing igital opass operations indoors? nswer: TV, personal coputer, speakers, or soe other object is interfering with terrestrial agnetis. Move away fro the object causing the interference or perfor the igital opass operation outdoors. Indoor igital opass operations are particularly difficult inside ferroconcrete structures. Reeber that you cannot perfor igital opass operations inside of trains, airplanes, etc. Question: How does the altieter work? nswer: Generally, air pressure and teperature decrease as altitude increases. This watch is equipped with a pressure sensor and bases its altitude easureents on International tandard tosphere (I) values stipulated by the International ivil viation Organization (IO), which define relationships between altitude, air pressure, and teperature.

If you also have altitude data for oint, 400 you should again calibrate the altieter there. e sure to recalibrate at oint if changing weather conditions produce altitude reading errors. The following conditions will prevent you fro obtaining accurate readings: ir pressure changes because of changes in the weather xtree teperature changes ubjecting the watch to strong ipact recautions oncerning iultaneous Measureent of ltitude and Teperature Though you can perfor altitude and teperature easureents at the sae tie, you should reeber that each of these easureents require different conditions for best results. With teperature easureent, it is best to reove the watch fro your wrist in order to eliinate the effects of body heat. In the case of altitude easureent, on the other hand, it is better to leave the watch on your wrist, because doing so keeps the watch at a constant teperature, which contributes to ore accurate altitude easureents. The following describes what you should do to give priority to either altitude or teperature. To give altitude easureent priority, leave the watch on your wrist or in any other location where the teperature of the watch is kept constant. To give teperature easureent priority, reove the watch fro your wrist and allow it to hand freely fro your bag or in another location where it is not exposed to direct sunlight. Question: How does the baroeter work? nswer: aroetric pressure indicates changes in the atosphere, and by onitoring these changes you can predict the weather with reasonable accuracy. Rising atospheric pressure indicates good weather, while falling pressure indicates deterioration weather conditions. The baroetric pressure that you see in the newspaper and on the TV weather report are easureents corrected to values easured at 0 sea level. Question: What should I do if I lose track of which ode I a in or lose y way when aking settings? nswer: Hold down the button for two or three seconds to return to the Tiekeeping Mode. Next, try perforing the operation you want again. The easureent functions built into this watch are not intended for use in taking easureents that require professional or industrial precision. Values produced by this watch should be considered as reasonably accurate representations only. When engaging in ountain clibing or other activities in which losing your way can create a dangerous or life-threatening situation, always be sure to use a second copass to confir direction readings. IO OMUTR O., LT. assues no responsibility for any loss, or any clais by third parties that ay arise through the use of this watch. There are two standard ethods of expressing altitude: bsolute altitude and Relative altitude. bsolute altitude expresses an absolute height above sea level. Relative altitude expresses the difference between the height of two different places.
