This watch is preset with a number of city codes, each of
which represents the time zone where that city is located.
When setting the time, it is important that you select the
correct city code for your Home City (the city where you
normally use the watch). If your location is not included in
the preset city codes, select the preset city code that is in
the same time zone as your location.

Note that all of the times for the World Time Mode city
codes are displayed in accordance with the time and
date settings you configure in the Timekeeping Mode.

•
A “run” is the total elapsed time and all the lap/split times you recorded from the
point you start the stopwatch until you stop it. The watch stores each run as a
separate memory record.
•
The run number that appears on the display whenever you clear the stopwatch to all
zeros indicates the number of the next run record that will be created when you
perform a stopwatch operation. The watch automatically increases the run number
by one each time you store run data.
•
“Lap time” is the time spent to cover a specific segment of a race, such as one lap
around a track. “Split time” is the time spent from the beginning of a race up to a
certain point.
•
Pressing
B
in the Stopwatch Mode switches the positions of the lap time and split
time between the middle display area and the lower display area. Arrows appear
next to the LAP and SPLIT indicators to show which time is in the middle (up arrow)
and which time is in the lower (down arrow) display area.
•
The hour of the time currently in the middle display area is indicated to the left of the
lap/split number in the upper display area.
•
The display range for the middle display area is 9 hours, 59 minutes, 59.99 seconds.
For the lower display area, it is 99 hours, 59 minutes, 59.99 seconds.
•
The stopwatch continues to run, restarting from zero after it reaches its limit, until
you stop it.
•
The stopwatch measurement operation continues even if you exit the Stopwatch
Mode.
