Configuring Settings

The settings changes described in this section are not required, but you can use these settings to get the most out of the watch.

Setting Up Automatic Laps

You can set the watch to take a split automatically during workouts. Automatic laps work in both Run and Chrono modes when the timer is running. You choose one of the preset distances, and the watch takes a split for you so you don’t have to break stride or take your eyes off the road.

1.Press MODE until SET displays.

2.Press + or - to select AUTO LAP, then press OK.

3.Press + or - to select the distance at which the watch will take a split, then press OK.

You only select the number of units at which you want to take a split. The watch applies the units of measurement you selected when you set up the watch in the Getting Started section.

For example, if you chose MI when you set up the watch, and chose 1 in step 2 of this procedure, the watch takes a split every mile you travel.

4.Press + or - to set ALERT to ON (the watch will beep when a split is taken) or OFF (the watch will not beep), then press OK.

5.Press MODE to exit.

Setting the Time Manually

While it is easiest to allow the GPS to set the time for you based on selected time zones, you can set either time zone manually.

1.Press MODE until SET displays.

2.Press - or + to select TIME, then press OK.

3.Press + or - to select the time zone (TIME 1 or TIME 2) to set, then press OK.

4.Press + or - to select MANUAL, then press OK.

5.Press + or - to change hours, then press OK to move to the next field.

6.Repeat step 5 for minutes, seconds, year, month, day, time format, and date format.

7.Press MODE to exit.

Selecting the Time display

You can set two time zones on the watch to keep time in different time zones. By default, TIME 1 is the pri- mary time zone that displays in Time mode, but you can view TIME 2 or make it the primary time zone.

In Time mode, press VIEW to see the time in your secondary time zone.

In Time mode, hold VIEW to make the secondary time zone primary.

Turning on Night-Mode®Feature

Normally, you must press INDIGLO® button to turn on the night-light. When the Night Mode® feature is active, any button press between the hours of 6 p.m. and 7 a.m. in the primary time zone turns on the night-light.

1.Press MODE until SET displays.

2.Press + or - to select NIGHT, then press OK.

3.Press + or - to select ON, then press OK.

4.Press MODE to exit.

Adjusting Contrast

Contrast settings determine how dark the text on the watch screen appears. Raise the contrast setting for darker text, and lower the setting for lighter text.

1.Press MODE until SET displays.

2.Press + or - to select CONTRAST, then press OK.

3.Press + or - to select the contrast value, the press OK.

4.Press MODE to exit.
