EXERCISE STOPWATCH MODE

Lap/Split No.
The Exercise Stopwatch Mode provides you with a 1/100second stopwatch for measuring elapsed time and lap/
split times. Elapsed time measured in the Exercise Stop-
1/100
watch Mode is used in combination with data you input in
second
the Basic Data Input Mode to calculate the number of calories you burn while jogging or running.
• Whenever you perform a stopwatch time measurement
operation, the date, elapsed time, and calories burned
are automatically stored in memory. Data in memory can
be viewed using the Recall Mode.

If you measure a lap time and then a split time, all the lap/split times stored in
memory are shown as split times in the Recall Mode.
How the Watch Counts Calories
• The watch calculates the number of calories you consume using the elapsed time
measured in the Exercise Stopwatch Mode and the age, weight and other data you
input in the Basic Data Input Mode. The calorie calculations made by this watch will
not be correct unless you input your own personal basic data.
• The watch also sounds a pacer signal to that you should use as a reference to
control the intensity of your workouts. See “About the Pacer Signal” for details.
• The calorie value on the display is updated every 30 seconds while a stopwatch
operation is in progress.

Important!
• Performing a lap or split time operation in the Exercise Stopwatch Mode stores the
data in memory immediately, even if the stopwatch is still running. Note that you
cannot delete a run number for which a stopwatch operation is still being performed.
• You cannot delete all stopwatch data while the stopwatch is running in the Exercise

About Auto-Repeat
All of the timers for which Auto-Repeat is turned on operate in succession when a
timer operation is started. This means you can set up an interval routine that is tailored to your own specific training needs.
• The following example shows how timing would be performed when Auto-Repeat is
turned on for Timers 2, 4, and 5. This loop would be repeated endlessly until you
stop it.
• If Auto-Repeat is turned on for only one timer, that timer’s operation is repeated
until you stop it.
• The watch beeps for two seconds when the end of a countdown is reached while
Auto-Repeat is turned on.

Auto Return Operations
• If you leave a screen with flashing digits on the display for two or three minutes
without performing any operation, the watch automatically saves anything you have
input up to that point and exits the setting screen.

The
A and

on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a scroll operation
scrolls through the data at high speed.
12-hour/24-hour Timekeeping Formats
The 12-hour/24-hour timekeeping format you select in the Timekeeping Mode is also
applied in the Alarm Mode.
Timekeeping Mode Notes
• In the Timekeeping Mode (except when making setting), press
tween the 12-hour and 24-hour formats.
• With the 12-hour format, the P (PM) indicator appears to the left of the hour digits
for times in the range of noon to 11:59 pm and the A (AM) indicator appears to the
left of the hour digits for times in the range of midnight to 11:59 am.
• With the 24-hour format, times are indicated in the range of 00:00 to 23:59, without
any indicator.
• The year can be set in the range of 1995 to 2039.
• The watch’s built-in full automatic calendar automatically make allowances for dif-
ferent month lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no
reason to change it except after the replacement of the watch’s battery.
Backlight Precautions
• The electro-luminescent (EL) panel 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 will emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. It does
not indicate malfunction of the watch.
• The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
• Normally the backlight lights when you press the
watch Mode, pressing
second.
The animation area of the display shows animated figures when you preform certain button operations.
• In the Timekeeping Mode, the animation area normally
shows the day of the week. Different animated figures

Exercise Stopwatch Mode Precautions
• The values for the number of calories burned produced by this watch include both
calories normally burned through normal metabolism and rest and extra calories
burned by jogging or running.
• This watch is set up to calculate calories burned by women while jogging. Men
should increase the values produced by this watch by 5%.
• You can use the lap time measurement to time how long it takes to complete a
specific portion (such as a single lap) of a race.
• You can use split time measurement to time how long it takes to get from the start
to a specific point in a race.
• Whenever a lap time or split time is on the display in the Exercise Stopwatch Mode,
the graphic area shows the difference between the current and last lap.
Animation area

• While the stopwatch is running, the animation are shows either a pig ( ), a

Exercise Stopwatch Mode memory management
• Measuring time with the stopwatch causes the date, elapsed time, and calories
burned to be stored under a run number. If you measured lap and split times, they
are also stored, along with a best lap time.
• This watch has enough memory to store up to 60 records. Date, run number, and
calories burned take up one record. Each time (elapsed time, lap time, split time,
best lap) takes up one record. The following shows some examples of how memory
can be used, but other combinations are also possible.
(plus date, run number, calories, best time)
• When memory becomes full, the next stopwatch measurement operation automatically deletes the oldest record number to make room for the new data. Note that
data is deleted in record number units, so all split/lap times under the run number
are deleted.
• The lap/split number flashes on the display when an ongoing stopwatch operation
causes memory to become full.
Basic Data
The term
age, and stride length.
• Be sure to update basic data values whenever the person using the watch changes.
Pacer Value
The speed of the pacer signal is determined by the pacer value, which is the number
of beats per minute. You can set the pacer value in increments of 5, in the range of
100 to 200.
Age
You can set the age value in 1-year increments in the range from 13 to 19 years. In
the range from 20 to 70, you can set the age value in 10-year increments.
Weight
You can set your current weight value in increments of 2 pounds, in the range of 66 to
330 pounds. Those lighter than 66 pounds should use the minimum setting, while
those heavier than 330 pounds should use the maximum setting.
Stride Length
You can set stride length values in increment of 2 inches, in the range of 16 to
76 inches. The following examples illustrate how you can calculate values for these
setting.
• 239 steps required to jog around a 300-meter track.
