Note

In order to obtain accurate calorie and distance calculations, you must set accurate basic data and keep your exercise pace in accordance with the pacer signal emitted by the watch.

Whenever you clear the stopwatch to all zeros, all exercise stopwatch data (elapsed time, distance, calories burned, recording date) is recorded automatically in the watch’s memory. See “Recall Mode” for more information.

The unit of measurement used for the distance calculation depends on the unit you select for your stride length as shown in the table below. See “To input your basic data” for more information.

Timekeeping Mode time

The exercise stopwatch is a 1/100-second stopwatch that measures elapsed time, split time, and two finishes. The exercise stopwatch uses the data you input in the Basic Data Input Mode and a pacer signal to calculate the number of calories you burn and the distance you cover while jogging or running.

The stopwatch measurement operation continues even if you exit the Exercise Stopwatch Mode.

Exiting the Exercise Stopwatch Mode while a split time is frozen on the display clears the split time and returns to elapsed time measurement.

Stopwatch measurements are performed in the Exercise Stopwatch Mode, which you enter by pressing C.

If you have red or blue selected for the current time in the Timekeeping Mode, pressing A during an elapsed time operation causes the split time to appear on the display in red.

If you have red or blue selected for the current time in the Timekeeping Mode, the elapsed time changes to blue after you reach your target calorie value.

The current calories count is updated at 30-second intervals.

About the Pacer Signal

The pacer signal of this watch beeps in accordance with a pacer value (rate) set by you. You can use the pacer signal to maintain a constant pace while jogging or running. You can also turn off the pacer signal when you do not want to use it.

The pacer value you set specifies the number of beeps per minute.

Turning on the pacer signal causes the watch to beep at the rate specified by the

How the Exercise Stopwatch Works

There are two ways you can use the exercise stopwatch: to measure elapsed time like a standard stopwatch (see “To measure times with the stopwatch”), and to keep track of the number of calories you burn or the distance you cover while jogging or running. In order to use the exercise stopwatch to keep track of calories and distance, you must first perform the steps listed below.

1.Set your basic data. See “Inputting Basic Data”.

2.Configure the pacer signal. See “About the Pacer Signal”.

pacer value.

You can disable the pacer function by setting a pacer value of xxx. While the

pacer value is set to xxx, the watch does not calculate calories burned and

distance covered, so both values are indicated as zero on the display.
