Before Getting
Started...
This section provides an overview of your watch and explains how to connect with a phone. You can configure watch settings to connect with a phone at preset times each day and adjust its time settings in accordance with information obtained from a network time server. You can also change the watch’s time settings manually and configure other watch settings from the phone.
Important!
This watch is not a special-purpose measuring instrument. Measurement function readings are intended for general reference only.
The watch’s Altimeter Mode calculates and displays relative altitude based on barometric pressure readings produced by its pressure sensor. Because of this, altitude values displayed by the watch may be different from your actual elevation and/or sea level elevation indicated for the area where you are located. Regular calibration in accordance with the local altitude (elevation) indications is recommended.
Altitude Measurement
l
Whenever using the Digital Compass of this watch for serious trekking, mountain climbing, or other activities, be sure always to take along another compass to confirm readings. If the readings produced by the Digital Compass of this watch are different from those of the other compass, perform 3-point calibration of the Digital Compass to ensure better accuracy.
Compass readings and calibration
will not be possible if the watch is in the vicinity of a permanent magnet (magnetic accessory, etc.), metal objects, high-voltage wires, aerial wires, or electrical household appliances (TV, computer, cellphone, etc.)
Digital Compass
l
Some of the functions of this watch cannot be used unless it is connected with a phone. You should also leave the phone’s location information setting turned on. Otherwise, the phone will not be able to acquire latitude and longitude information, which may cause the watch to display incorrect information.
The GPS navigation log data acquisition operation can cause deviation of the measurement intervals of other modes.
Note
Note that the watch illustrations in this manual are intended for reference only. The actual watch may appear somewhat different than depicted in the illustrations.

Charging the Watch

Solar Charging

Power generated by the solar panel powers watch operations and also is used to charge a rechargeable (secondary) battery. The solar panel is integrated into the LCD of the watch, and power for charging is generated whenever the face is exposed to light.
Charging the Watch
When you are not wearing the watch, put it in a location where it is exposed to bright light.
While you are wearing the watch, make sure that its LCD (solar panel) is not blocked from the light by the sleeve of your clothing. Power generation efficiency is reduced even when the LCD is blocked only partially.
Important!

Charging with the Charger

Charging with the charger is faster than solar charging.
Important!
Use only the supplied charger and USB cable for charging.
A device with a USB port (Type-A) can also be used for charging.
Note that no guarantees are made concerning the suitability of all types of USB ports for charging. If charging is not possible for some reason, disconnection from the USB port is recommended.
Place the charger on a desk or other stable surface, making sure there is plenty of open space around it. Charging with the charger and watch in a bag or some other enclosed space can cause overheating of the watch and/or charger.
Should water or any other liquid get onto the watch or charger during charging, immediately disconnect the USB cable from the power source.
The charger unit is not waterproof. Avoid use in areas where moisture or high humidity is present.
Perform charging in an environment where ambient temperature is between 5°C and 35°C (41°F and 95°F).
Depending on light intensity and local conditions, the watch may become hot

Operation Guide 3452
Precautions When Charging
GPS signals (for time adjustment, log acquisition, point memory, etc.) are not received while charging with the charger is in progress.
The watch’s GPS function will not be able to be used for about one minute after you remove it from the charger. During that period the watch also will not be able to detect whether it is connected to or disconnected from the charger.
Do not attempt charging at high ambient temperatures of 35°C or greater. The watch becomes hot during charging, which will cause charging to stop. High ambient temperature may result in a less than full charge.
Do not carry the charger in a bag or otherwise subject it to squeezing or crushing forces. Doing so can cause deformation of the claws so they become open too far, making it impossible to attach the watch to the charger.
If an ongoing charging operation stops, remove the watch from the charger and disconnect the USB cable. After checking for and eliminating problems, try charging again.
It may take some time for charging to start after the watch is attached to the charger.
The watch and charger may become warm during charging. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.
Note
It takes about five hours for charging to start after the watch’s display goes blank.
Charging time depends on ambient temperature and other factors.
