The higher the figure, the greater the light intensity. Bear in mind that the greater
the light intensity, the more battery is used, which will result in shorter autonomy
(see chapter 2).
e) “Parking” the hands
A double press on the crown allows the hour and minute hands to be “parked” (at
09:14 or 02:46) so as not to affect the readability of the two digital displays. The
seconds hand continues to move forward as usual. In this mode, all digital functions
remain perfectly functional. By default, the hands can only move out of parking
mode after a second double press. There is however an option that allows them to
move forward automatically after 5 minutes (see chapter 7.g).
The hands are automatically “parked” when the crown is pulled out to
SETTING
mode.
f) Blocking a function
Should you wish to keep a specific function displayed, this can be done by
deactivating the crown rotating function in neutral position. In order to do this,
push the crown three times. The word
LOCKED
will appear in the screen at 12 o’clock
for around 2 seconds. From now on, the selected function will remain displayed
until you push the crown three times again (and
UNLOCKD
will appear in the screen
at 12 o’clock). If the crown is turned in “locked” mode, the word
LOCKED
will appear
at 12 o’clock for 2 seconds.
g) Connecting the watch to a smartphone
The watch is equipped with a BLE (Bluetooth ® Low Energy) antenna enabling
it to be paired with an Apple iPhone ® or Android™ type smartphone. Using a
dedicated application on the smartphone, it is possible to adjust all the settings,
including the time as well as recovering certain information from the
CHR ADD
,
the
LAP TMR
and the
RALLy
,
RACE
and
RGRALLy
counters. It is also possible, when
connected, to display notifications of phone calls (caller name or number),
messages and emails received on the smartphone; the watch can also indicate
reminders of meetings stored on the smartphone.
If necessary, updating of the watch’s firmware is also possible. The configuration is
described in chapters 7.i and 17.
2. RECHARGEABLE BATTERY AND POWER MANAGEMENT
a) Rechargeable battery
The watch is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. Charging takes place
through two contacts located at 9 o’clock, on the side of the case, by using a spe-
cial cable supplied with the chronograph. The connector consists of an integrated
magnet that ensures the contact with the watch.
N.B.: Please take care not to short-circuit the two contacts on the recharging cable
and in particular, never place the ends of the cable on metallic surfaces.
