Using the Stopwatch
You can use the Stopwatch Mode to measure elapsed time and lap times, and to
recall lap times. Up to 10 lap times can be stored in memory. There is also memory
to record the fastest lap time. Though no more lap times are stored after 10 times are
in memory, the fastest lap time continues to be updated as required. Starting a new
elapsed time operation clears all of the memories (including fastest lap time).
What is a lap time?
A lap time is the time elapsed over a specifi c segment of a race.
Example: Car race on an oval track

(Tokyo) and the World Time
City is
NYC
(New York).
