EXERCISE STOPWATCH MODE

Remaining memory

Mode indicator

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.

Measuring Elapsed Time

Calories burned

• Pressing

C while the stopwatch is stopped and a time is on the display clears the

stopwatch to all zeros. Note that you must press zeros before you can perform certain stopwatch operations.

• When the stopwatch is cleared, the upper part of the display periodically changes between the mode indicator and remaining memory value.

Recording Lap or Split Times

4.Press

A to stop the time measurement.

• About seven seconds after you press showing the number of calories burned appears on the display.

5.After the number of calories burned value appears, press

to all zeros.

• The data is stored as lap or split times depending on the last operation you perform. 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.

1. In the Exercise Stopwatch Mode, press stopwatch.

2. Press

A to stop the stopwatch.

• You can resume the measurement operation by press-

ing

A again.

3.Press

C to clear the stopwatch to all zeros.

Stopping and Clearing the Stopwatch

• Whenever you enter the Recall Mode, the newest (high-

est run number) data appears first.

Deleting Stopwatch Data

You can delete the data stored under a specific run number, or all data stored under all run numbers. Note the following important rules about deleting data.

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 Stopwatch Mode. Also, the screen in the Exercise Stopwatch Mode must show all zeros.

• If the stopwatch is running, enter the Exercise Stopwatch Mode and then press to stop it. Press

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.
