Using Date/Time Records
You can use the procedure in this section to create a date/time record of the current date (month, day,
year) and time (minute second). You can later recall a record to view it.
Important!
• The watch has memory for storage of up to 40 records of various types. If you perform an operation
that creates a new record while there are already 40 records in memory, the oldest record is deleted
automatically to make room for the new one (page E-70).
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down C until the watch beeps (about 0.5 seconds).
• REC will appear on the display, indicating that a record of the current date and time was created.
After about one second, the watch will return to the Timekeeping Mode screen.
2. To view a record, enter the Data Recall Mode (page E-26) and use the A and C buttons to scroll. See
“Viewing Memory Records” (page E-70) for more information.
