About the Backlight
About the Auto Light Switch Function
When the auto light switch function is turned on, the backlight automatically turns
on for two seconds under the conditions described below. Avoid wearing the watch
on the inside of your wrist. Doing so causes the auto light switch to operate when
not needed, which shortens battery life.
Moving the watch to a position that is parallel to the ground and then tilting it
towards you approximately 40 degrees causes the backlight to illuminate.

back to the starting position (parallel with the ground) and then tilt it back toward
you again. If this does not work, drop your arm all the way down so it hangs at
your side, and then bring it back up again.

Caution
•
The backlight of this watch employs an electro-luminescent (EL) light, which loses its
illuminating power after very long term use.
• Frequent use of the backligfht shortens the battery life.
• The watch emits an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is because
the EL light vibrates slightly when lit. It does not indicate malfunction of the watch.

dark or in areas with poor footing. Doing 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 might be vehicular or pedestrian traffic. Doing
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
motorcycle or any other motor vehicle. Doing so is dangerous and can result in a
traffic accident and serious personal injury.
• When you are wearing the watch, make sure that its auto light switch function is
turned off before riding on a bicycle or operating a motorcycle or any other motor
vehicle. Sudden and unintended operation of the auto light switch can create a
