Measuring Altitude

You can calculate the altitude of your current location using the pressure sensor built into the watch.

c

Important:

If the atmospheric pressure changes due to weather conditions or the temperature at the measurement location,
the measurement results and the actual altitude may differ.

Move to a location where you know the altitude, and then calibrate the altitude.

U

 

“Calibrating the Altitude” on page 78

If you do not correct the altitude, there may be a discrepancy of tens of meters or more.

Measuring

A

Press and release the 

A

 button several times to enter 

ALT

 mode

Note:

The watch automatically measures altitude approximately every 10 minutes (the indicator hand does not point to 

M

at this time).

When you switch to 

ALT

 mode, the altitude measured last time is displayed. If the altitude measured last time is

negative, the small second hand points to 

. Go to step 2 to measure the altitude of your current location in real time.

B

Press the 

C

 button to start measuring

While measuring (for one minute) the indicator hand points to 

M

.

Note:

While measuring with the 

C

 button, the measurement results are updated every second.
