a heading value is suspect, a new calibration should be performed. It is also recommended that calibration be performed in the intended area of use or when the watch has been stored for an extended period of time.

Care should be taken to avoid storing the watch near any source of magnetism (computers, appliances, TVs, etc.) as the watch can take on a magnetic charge and render subsequent headings inaccurate. When the watch is suspected of having taken on a magnetic charge, a new calibration should be performed.

Applying good maintenance procedures, periodic calibration and observing the guidelines out- lined above will help to ensure headings are accurate to within the limitations of the immedi- ate envionment.

A. To calibrate for magnetic north, turn CROWN 1 until COMPASS appears. Pull CROWN out one stop. WHILE LEVEL ROTATE WATCH TWICE PUSH CROWN IN WHEN DONE will appear. Hold watch level and make two complete rotations, taking approximately 15 sec- onds per revolution.

B. Push CROWN 1 in to complete. CAL OK will be displayed. Repeat calibration if message does not appear.

C. Pull CROWN 1 out two stops and turn forward or backward to set declination angle (see table). Push CROWN 1 in when done.

Finding Direction

A. Hold watch level relative to the horizon. In any mode but COMPASS, press CROWN 1 to dis- play compass heading pointed to by red arrow (12 o'clock position). You may wish to turn the bezel around the watch face to correspond to the measured direction. Press CROWN 1 again to cancel heading display (display will be replaced by dashes after 15 seconds).

B. To retrieve heading from COMPASS mode, turn CROWN 1 until COMPASS appears. After 15 seconds, dashes will be displayed. Press CROWN 1 to restart compass readings.

C. If PLEASE CALIB is displayed, repeat calibration procedure.

INDIGLO® NIGHT-LIGHT WITH NIGHT-MODE®

Press CROWN 2 to illuminate watch face. Patented (U.S. pat. 4,527,096 and 4,775,964) electro- luminescent technology used in the INDIGLO® night-light illuminates entire watch face at night and in low light conditions. Press and hold CROWN 2 for three seconds (beep will sound) to activate or de-activate NIGHT-MODE®. While in NIGHT-MODE®, press any button to illuminate watch face for 3 seconds.

WARNING: TO MAINTAIN WATER-RESISTANCE, DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS OR PULL OUT THE CROWN UNDER WATER UNLESS YOUR WATCH IS INDICATED AS 200 METER WATER-RESISTANT.

1.Watch is water-resistant only as long as crystal, crown and case remain intact.

2.Watch is not a diver watch and should not be used for diving.

3.Rinse watch with fresh water after exposure to salt water.
