SECTION 7 – HOW TO USE THE CHRONOGRAPH
SECTION 6 – HOW TO SET TIME/CALENDAR
IMPORTANT: The true ambient air temperature is achieved by removing the
watch from your wrist and placing it in the shade for 30 minutes. Body heat
registers on the extremely sensitive thermistor, even when the watch is
worn over clothing. The thermometer registers water temperature faster
and more accurately than air temperature.
The chronograph (or stopwatch) is used to measure elapsed time from a
beginning point; for instance, to time a race. It can be used to record
segments of your training routine so that you can evaluate your progress.
To enter CHRONOGRAPH mode, press MODE once from
NORMAL TIME display. You are now in the
CHRONOGRAPH mode.
In the CHRONOGRAPH mode, select either SPLIT or
LAP by pressing SET. (Note: Chronograph must be set
to zero to switch between SPLIT and LAP.) The word
“SPLIT” or “LAP” will alternate with each press.
• From CHRONOGRAPH mode press MODE to bring you to
COUNTDOWN TIMER mode.
• From COUNTDOWN TIMER mode press MODE to bring
you to ALARM mode.
• From ALARM mode press MODE to bring you to
SECOND TIME ZONE mode.
• From SECOND TIME ZONE mode press MODE to return
to NORMAL TIME mode.
OTHER FEATURES
• TEMPERATURE SENSOR – Using a sensor on the watch face, the watch
displays the temperature for air, water or snow. The temperature is shown
numerically and in bar graph form in degrees Fahrenheit or Centigrade.
• AUTOMATIC SET RETURN – While in the SET function within any mode, if
no button is pressed for 2 minutes, the watch will automatically return to
NORMAL TIME. This function will help correct for any accidental button
presses.
• AUTOMATIC MODE RETURN – While in any mode other than NORMAL
TIME mode, whenever any button is pressed that affects the display, the
next push of MODE will automatically return the watch to NORMAL TIME
mode and not to the next mode in the normal sequence.
• ALARM AUTOMATIC RETURN – While in the ALARM mode, if no button is
pressed for 2 minutes, the watch will automatically return to NORMAL TIME
mode.

SECTION 5 – HOW TO USE THE TEMPERATURE SENSOR
1. From NORMAL TIME mode, press TEMP to view temperature in
Fahrenheit. While the display shows temperature in Fahrenheit, press
TEMP again to view temperature in Centrigrade. The display will
automatically return to the date in 2-3 seconds.
2. To have the temperature remain in the date display, hold TEMP until the
beep sounds. Any of the three display options in NORMAL TIME mode
(date, Fahrenheit or Centigrade temperature) can be selected by using
this method.
3. A temperature reading update occurs whenever TEMP is pressed except
in Chronograph mode. Additionally, temperature is automatically
updated every ten minutes.
