Using the Alarms

Alarm Mode

You can use the Alarm Mode to configure settings for various
types of alarms (daily alarm, snooze alarm, target alarm) or for the
hourly time signal.
This watch has five alarms: three daily alarms, one target alarm,
and one snooze alarm.

Daily Alarm (AL1, AL2, AL3)

With a daily alarm, the watch beeps for 10 seconds when the
alarm time is reached.

Target Alarm (TAL)

With a target alarm, the time remaining until the alarm time
counts down on the display.

The watch beeps for 10 seconds when the alarm time is
reached.

Snooze Alarm (SNZ)

With the snooze alarm, the watch beeps for 10 seconds when
the alarm time is reached, and up to seven times at five-
minute intervals thereafter. Pressing any button stops the
beeper, but the alarm will sound again after five minutes.
