You can set the start time of the timer in units of one minute in the
range of 1 to 60 minutes. The watch beeps for 5 seconds when
the end of the countdown is reached. Turning on the watch’s auto
repeat timer feature causes the countdown to restart from the start
time whenever the end of the countdown is reached.

There are two different settings that you can use to configure the
timer as describe below.

With the Repeat Timer, the countdown stops, the original start
time appears, and the watch beeps for 5 seconds when the
end of the countdown is reached.

The “

Repeat Timer is selected.

Auto Repeat Timer

The Auto Repeat Time causes timing to restart from the start
time when the end of the countdown is reached.

The “
