Diving mode: [This function measures under water depth]

Before Diving

Whether in time and calendar mode, surface mode, log mode or alarm mode, when the water sensor is on, the watch is ready for diving mode.

When the water sensor is ON, if the watch stays in the ready for diving mode for more than 1 hour, “CHEK” (D201/D207)/”ERR” (D202/D208) display will appear in the dot display window.

If this happens, please wipe the water sensor dry, and start diving after confirming “CHEK” (D201/D207)/”ERR” (D202/D208) display has disappeared.

When in the ready for diving state, if the pressure sensor deflects water pressure of more than 1m (4ft), the watch will change to the depth display (diving mode).

While Diving

1)When starting a dive, the dot display will tell the swimming diver when the watch is in diving mode.

2)The LED will flash once every 4 seconds to show the watch is dive mode.

3)The water depth is measured and displayed every second. The range of water depth measurement is 1.0m~ 80.0m (4~260ft). When the watch is deeper than 80.0m (260ft), it displays “---m” and when shallower than 1.0m (4ft), it displays “0.0m”; thus the watch informs you when it is outside its depth measurement range.

4)The diving time display measures and displays in 1 second units up to 29 mins., 59 secs. When it passes the 30 min. mark, the display changes to units of 1 min. With a maximum measuring time of 199 mins. After that, the watch starts from 0 secs, again.
