alarm will enter the SET mode. See previous instructions for setting
the alarm. Once set to the new alarm time, the watch will return to

START/SPLIT until the symbol appears in the right side of the
display. This symbol indicates that the HOURLY CHIME has been

every hour on the hour. When the chime is activated, the watch will
also beep each time any button is pressed. To deactivate the
HOURLY CHIME, enter the ALARM mode, and press START/SPLIT
until the symbol
disappears.

same time. Press START/SPLIT until symbol

will appear on the right side of the display indicating that the
HOURLY CHIME is active.
SECTION 8 – HOW TO SET/USE DAILY ALARM/HOURLY CHIME

beep may be silenced early by pressing any button. When the timer
sounds, the timer display will automatically appear for 10 seconds,

occurs, you have ten seconds to restart the timer or set a new
countdown time before the mode previously displayed reappears.

button to silence the alarm and then press START/SPLIT. The timer
will restart and the watch will return to the mode previously
displayed before the timer appeared.

“TIMER” will appear in the middle of the display during active
operation of the countdown timer.
