PM indicator

•When using 12-hour timekeeping, a P appears on the display for “pm” times (noon to 11:59 pm). An “am” time (midnight to 11:59 am) is indicated when there is no P indicator on the display. 24-hour timekeeping is being used when the 24 indicator is on the display.

•Pressing C in the Timekeeping Mode illuminates the display for about two seconds. The backlight is disabled while a setting screen is on the display.

Caution

•The backlight of this watch employs an electro-lumi- nescent (EL) light, which loses its illuminating power after very long term use.

•Frequent use of the backlight shortens the battery life.

•The watch emits an audible sound whenever the dis- play is illuminated. This is because the EL light vibrates slightly when lit. It does not indicate malfunction of the watch.
