About the Auto Light Switch
Turning on the auto light switch causes the backlight to turn on, whenever you
position your wrist as described below in any mode.
Note that this watch features a “Full Auto EL Light”, so the auto light switch
operates only when available light is below a certain level. It does not turn on
the backlight under bright light.
