Illumination

Vibration Alarm

When the Vibration Alarm is turned on, the watch vibrates instead of sounding an alarm. This lets you use the watch without disturbing others by beeping sounds.

• The Vibration Alarm can be used to replace alarm sounds in the Countdown Timer, Stopwatch, and Alarm Modes.
• All explanations in this manual use expressions such as “sounds the alarm” for alarm operations. When the Vibration Alarm is turned on, these expressions should be understood to mean “causes the watch to vibrate”.
• Watches with a metal band may produce a noise when a vibration operation is performed. This is due to the vibration of the metal band and does not indicate malfunction of the watch.

To turn the vibration alarm on and off
In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down D for about two seconds to toggle the Vibration Alarm between on (Vibration Alarm on indicator displayed) and off (indicator not displayed).

• The watch will vibrate when you toggle it on, and beep when you toggle it off.
• Turning on the Vibration Alarm also disables the button operation tone.

Countdown Timer Mode

The countdown can be set within a range of 1 second to 24 hours. When the countdown reaches zero, an alarm sounds for 10 seconds or until you press any button.

2. Press C to change the selection in the following sequence.

   • Press D and B at the same time to clear the starting time to 0:00′ 00″.
   • To set the starting value of the countdown time to 24 hours, set 0:00′ 00″.
4. After you set the countdown start time, press A to return to the Countdown Timer Mode.

Stopwatch Mode

The Stopwatch Mode lets you measure elapsed time, split times, and two finishes. The range of the stopwatch is 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 59.99 seconds. The Stopwatch Mode also features an Auto-Start function.

• The elapsed time hour count is shown in place of the current time when a stopwatch operation is in progress.

About the Auto-Start function

To turn the Auto-Start function on and off
While the display is showing all zeros in the Stopwatch Mode, press B to toggle it on and off.
