Useful tips

Briefly pressing a button (approximately 1 second) will do different things than pressing and holding the button for a longer period of time (approximately 2 to 5 seconds). If your press the button for a longer period of time, you can use shortcuts.

The buttons are slightly stiffer than those of an ordinary watch to prevent them from being pressed accidentally.

You can always return to the Time of day display from the Options setting or File recalling loops by pressing and holding the stop button.

See the glossary for display symbols and text interpretation.
