IMPORTANT
The World Health Organisation advises the following
precautions should be taken when exposing yourself to
the sun:
Limit time in the midday sun
- The sun’s UV rays are
the strongest between 10 am and 4 pm. To the extent
possible, limit exposure to the sun during these hours.
Wear protective clothing
- A hat with a wide brim offers
good sun protection for your eyes, ears, face, and the
back or your neck. Sunglasses that provide 99 to 100%
UV-A and UV-B protection will greatly reduce eye damage
from sun exposure. Tightly woven, loose fitting clothes
will provide additional protection from the sun.
Use sunscreen
- Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen of
minimum SPF 15+ liberally and re-apply every two hours.

TOUR MODE
TOUR MEMORY
The tour mode allows you to record and store local
pressure, temperature and altitude data. The watch
memory records skiing time, altitude variance and vertical
speed. Both the Tour and watch memory can then be
downloaded onto your PC. Up to 99 TOURs can be
recorded and stored to the PC software. From the PC
you can generate reports, compare results, and track
performance across training events. For example, a tour
memory PC report can comprise of:
•
Tour number (1-99)
•
Total tour duration
•
Net tour duration (without breaks)
•
Min / max altitude
•
Ascending / descending distance
A skiing PC report can comprise of:
•
Total time, min / max time
•
Total distance, min / max distance
•
Average speed, min / max speed
Model total recording time available
RA103 / RA183 - 480 min (8 hours)
Default sampling time for readings in TOUR Mode is every
5 seconds. To increase the gap between samplings, and
thus increase the memory capacity, you can adjust this
setting through the PC software.
NOTE
The information from a TOUR can only be viewed
through the PC software.
ACTIVATE TOUR MODE
For best results, perform these steps immediately before
you begin your trip.
