Temperature Reading Precautions

Body temperature, direct sunlight, and humidity all have an effect on temperature 
readings. To help ensure more accurate temperature readings, remove the watch 
from your wrist, wipe it dry of any moisture, and place it in a well-ventilated location 
not exposed to direct sunlight for about 20 to 30 minutes before taking temperature 
readings.

E-51

Important!

 To cancel a temperature reading correction setting, hold down 

 

x

A

 and 

B

 at the 

same time. The watch will beep.

 Push the crown back in.

3. 

 After about ten seconds, regular timekeeping will resume.

 

x

Important!

 If you do not perform any operation with the crown for about two minutes after 

 

x

pulling it out, crown operations will become disabled and the watch hands will no 
longer move when you rotate the crown. If this happens, push the crown back in 
and then pull it out again.

E-50

Important!

 The watch will not be able to produce correct temperature readings if you make a 

 

x

mistake during the correction procedure. Check to make sure that the value you 
use for correction produces correct temperature readings.
 Before performing the following procedure, remove the watch from your wrist and 

 

x

leave it for about 20 or 30 minutes to allow the case temperature to become the 
same as the air temperature.

 While the hands are indicating a temperature reading, pull out the crown.

1. 

 Rotate the crown to adjust the temperature setting. 

2. 

Holding down 

A

 and 

B

 at the same time will return the temperature reading to the 

factory default setting.

 Each rotation of the crown moves the hands by 1°C (2°F).

 

x

 You can adjust the temperature reading within the range of –10 to 60°C (or 14 

 

x

to 140°F).
