About Auto Light

While Auto Light is enabled, illumination will turn on whenever you position your wrist as described below in any mode.

Moving the watch to a position that is parallel to the ground and then tilting it towards you more than 40 degrees causes illumination to turn on.

Warning!

Always make sure you are in a safe place whenever you are reading the display of the watch

•

using auto light. 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 auto light does not startle or distract others around you.

When you are wearing the watch, make sure that auto light is disabled before riding on a bicycle

•

or operating a motorcycle or any other motor vehicle. Sudden and unintended operation of auto light can create a distraction, which can result in a traffic accident and serious personal injury.

E-36

Auto light precautions

E-38

• 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.

• Illumination turns off after the preset illumination duration (page E-35), even if you keep

the watch pointed towards your face.

• Static electricity or magnetic force can interfere with proper operation of auto light.

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 your face 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.

• You may notice a very faint clicking sound coming from the watch when it is shaken

back and forth. This sound is caused by mechanical operation of auto light, and does not indicate a problem with the watch.
