About the Auto Light Switch
While the auto light switch is enabled, illumination turns on whenever you position
your wrist as described below in any mode.

Signal, the countdown alarm, and stopwatch auto start.
To illuminate the display
In any mode, press B to turn on illumination.
x The above operation turns on illumination regardless of the current auto light switch
setting.
x You can use the procedure below to select either 1.5 seconds or 3 seconds as the
illumination duration. When you press B, the illumination will remain on for about
1.5 seconds or 3 seconds, depending on the current illumination duration setting.
To specify the illumination duration
Warning!
x Always make sure you are in a safe place whenever you are reading the watch
using the auto light switch. Be especially careful when running or engaged
in any other activity that can result in accident or injury. Also take care that
sudden illumination by the auto light switch does not startle or distract others
around you.
x When you are wearing the watch, make sure that its auto light switch is turned
off before riding on a bicycle or operating a motorcycle or any other motor
vehicle. Sudden and unintended operation of the auto light switch can create a
distraction, which can result in a traffi c accident and serious personal injury.

In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down B for about three seconds to toggle the auto
light switch on (auto light switch indicator displayed) or off (auto light switch indicator
not displayed).

any operation, it automatically changes to the Timekeeping Mode.
x If you leave a screen with fl ashing digits on the display for two or three minutes
without performing any operation, the watch automatically exits the setting screen.
Scrolling
The B and D buttons are used in various modes and setting screens to scroll
through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a scroll
operation scrolls at high speed.

x The letters “UTC” is the abbreviation for “Coordinated Universal Time”, which is the
world-wide scientifi c standard of timekeeping. It is based upon carefully maintained
atomic (cesium) clocks that keep time accurately to within microseconds. Leap
seconds are added or subtracted as necessary to keep UTC in sync with the Earth’s
rotation.
Illumination Precautions
x The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after very long
use.
x Illumination may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.x 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.
x Illumination turns off automatically whenever an alarm sounds.x Frequent use of illumination runs down the battery.
E-39
Operation Guide 3433
Auto light switch precautions
x Avoid wearing the watch on the inside of your wrist. Doing so causes the auto light
switch to operate when it is not needed, which shortens battery life. If you want to
wear the watch on the inside of your wrist, turn off the auto light switch feature.
E-40
x Illumination may not turn on if the face of the watch is more
than 15 degrees above or below parallel. Make sure that
the back of your hand is parallel to the ground.
x Illumination turns off after the preset illumination duration
(see “To specify the illumination duration” (page E-31)), even if
you keep the watch pointed towards your face.
x Static electricity or magnetic force can interfere with proper
operation of the auto light switch. If illumination does not
turn on, try moving the watch back to the starting position
(parallel with the ground) and then tilt it back towards you
again. If this does not work, drop your arm all the way
down so it hangs at your side, and then bring it back up
again.
