About the backlight
In any mode, press

The backlight of the watch employs an electro-luminescent (EL) panel, which loses
illuminating power after very long use.
•
The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under
direct sunlight.
•
The watch may emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is
due to vibration of the EL panel used for illumination, and does not indicate
malfunction.
•
The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
•
The backlight remains lit for about two seconds from the point you press
L
, even if
it is already lit when you press
L
. If you keep

depressed for about 15 seconds,
the backlight will automatically turn off.
•
Press
