Applications

The built-in sensors of this watch measure direction, altitude, barometric pressure, and temperature. Measured values are then shown on the display. Such features make this watch useful when hiking, mountain climbing, or when engaging in other such outdoor activities.

Warning!

The measurement functions built into this watch are not intended for taking measurements that require professional or industrial precision. Values produced by this watch should be considered as reasonable representations only.

When engaging in mountain climbing or other activities in which losing your way can create a dangerous or life-threatening situation, always be sure to use a second compass to confirm direction readings.

If the display of the watch is blank...

If the SLEEP indicator is on the display (either flashing or steady), it means that the display is blank because the watch's Power Saving function has shut it to conserve power. Power Saving automatically turns off the display and puts the watch into a sleep state whenever your watch is left in an area where it is dark for a certain period.

The initial factory default setting is Power Saving on.

The watch recovers from the sleep state if you move it to a well-lit area*, if you press any button, or if you angle the watch towards your face for reading.

*It can take up to five seconds for the display to turn on.

See “Power Saving Function” for more information.
