THERMOMETER
Temperature display
Description of the function
In this mode, your watch is transformed into a THERMOMETER and displays the ambient temperature.
22Explanations
The temperature displayed is the temperature of the watch case. Its temperature is therefore influenced by your body temperature. Thus, the temperature displayed may be different from the ambient temperature.
To display the actual ambient temperature, the watch must be taken off for about 15 to 30 minutes so that it is no longer affected by your body temperature.
Miscellaneous information
The temperature may be displayed in degrees Celsius [˚C] or degrees Fahrenheit [˚F]. (see page 8 for the procedure for changing these units).
Conversion formulae: | T˚C = (T˚F - | 32) x | 5 | |
