Backlight Precautions
•The
•The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.
•The watch may emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is due to vibration of the EL panel used for illumination, and does not indicate malfunction.
•The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
•Frequent use of the backlight shortens the battery life.
Auto light switch precautions
• In order to protect against running down the battery, the auto light switch |
automatically turns off approximately five hours after you turn it on. |
About the Auto Light Switch
Turning on the auto light switch causes the backlight to turn on for about one second, whenever you position your wrist as described below in any mode.
Moving the watch to a position that is parallel to the ground and then tilting it towards you more than 40 degrees causes the backlight to turn on.
Parallel to ground | More than 40 ° |
• Avoid wearing the watch on the inside of your wrist. Doing so causes the auto light |
switch to operate when it is not needed, which shortens battery life. If you want to |
wear the watch on the inside of your wrist, turn off the auto light switch feature. |
More than 15 degrees | • The backlight may not light if the face of the watch is |
too high | more than 15 degrees above or below parallel. Make |
| sure that the back of your hand is parallel to the ground. |
| • The backlight turns off in about one second, even if you |
| keep the watch pointed towards your face. |
•Static electricity or magnetic force can interfere with proper operation of the auto light switch. If the backlight does not light, try moving the watch back to the starting position (parallel with the ground) and then tilt it back toward you again. If this does not work, drop your arm all the way down so it hangs at your side, and then bring it back up again.
•Under certain conditions, the backlight may not light until about one second after
you turn the face of the watch towards you. This does not necessarily indicate | 3 | |
malfunction of the backlight. | ||
