This mark indicates that caution or attention is required.
This mark indicates prohibited matters.
WARNING
Read this manual carefully and pay attention to all dangers, warnings and cautions. Make sure you fully understand the use, displays and limitations of the watch. Neglecting to understand and follow the instruction manual may cause errors to be made during diving that may lead to serious injury or death.
6
Diving is a potentially dangerous sport. When using this watch for diving, make sure to have a correct understanding of this watch as described in this manual and strictly adhere to the procedures for its operation.
The watch may not function properly if handled in a manner not described in this manual.
General Cautions Regarding Diving
WARNING
In the case of using this watch for diving, always make sure to receive the proper scuba diving training from a certified instructor so that you have the necessary experience and skills required for safe diving. In addition, make sure that you have completely mastered the handling and operation of this watch.
Even though you may only be engaged in recreational diving, any type of diving can be potentially dangerous. Attempting to engage in diving with improper or inadequate training can result in a fatal or serious accident.
WARNING
Never attempt NITROX diving unless you have received special training for NITROX diving.
Although this watch is also compatible with NITROX diving, NITROX diving presents serious or potentially fatal risks unlike ordinary diving using compressed air.
WARNING
Each diver should be responsible for formulating and executing a diving plan to ensure safety that matches his or her own abilities.
The dive computer function of this watch is not designed to completely prevent the occurrence of decompression sickness. In addition, it is unable to monitor differences in the physiological functions of individual divers or differences in physical condition on a particular day. Since physical condition has a considerable effect on the occurrence of decompression sickness, the degree of the risk of decompression sickness varies depending on the physical condition of the diver on that day. It is therefore recommended to avoid diving when physical condition is poor, such as in the case of illness, fatigue, lack of sleep or hangover.
7
Cautions Regarding Use of this Watch
DANGER
Do not use this watch during decompression diving, especially during NITROX diving.
Although this watch will provide data on decompression diving in an emergency, using this watch for decompression diving entails risks. Since decompression diving during NITROX diving in particular is very dangerous, never use this watch under these conditions. Decompression diving during NITROX diving can lead to an accident causing death or serious injury. (The DCIEM algorithm generates a particularly hard error in the case of decompression diving during NITROX diving.)
DANGER
Never loan or share the watch with another person when resting on the surface (while the watch is operating in the surface mode). In addition, do not use the data displayed by the watch as the data for a person other than the user.
This watch is designed on the premise of use by a single user. Since calculations made by the dive computer based on previous diving are continued to be used during operation in the surface mode, use of the watch by another person can prevent the dive computer from making calculations suitable for the user, resulting in the risk of an accident causing death or serious injury.
DANGER
Avoid traveling in an aircraft while the surface mode is activated.
Traveling in an aircraft without allowing sufficient time to rest after diving results in the risk of decompression sickness. It is recommended to avoid traveling in an aircraft for at least 24 hours after diving whenever possible even if the surface mode is no longer displayed. There are no rules for completely preventing decompression sickness caused by flying in an aircraft after diving.
WARNING
In the case of using this watch for diving, always make sure to also use other backup equipment (including a DCIEM dive table, divers watch, residual pressure gauge and water depth gauge).
Sudden fluctuations in the atmosphere and changes in water temperature may have an effect on the display and performance of the watch. Always make sure to use this watch in combination with other backup instruments in case the watch should happen to malfunction. The dive computer functions of this watch are not intended to completely protect you from decompression sickness and oxygen toxication. Since the watch is only intended to display information to serve as a reference for minimizing the risk of decompression sickness and so forth, it is not intended to completely ensure the safety of the user.
8
WARNING
Always make sure to inspect all functions of the watch prior to each dive to prevent malfunction of the watch and accidents caused by use of the watch at improper settings. (Refer to the section entitled, “Cautions Regarding Use During Diving” (p. 17), for information on the inspection procedure.) In particular, always make sure to check whether the watch is sufficiently charged, whether the oxygen concentration (O
2%) is set correctly, and
whether there are warnings being displayed.
WARNING
Diving when using this watch is limited to recreational diving at a water temperature from +10°C to +40°C (50°F to 104°F).
Do not use this watch for saturation diving using helium gas, diving at a water temperature outside the above temperature range or high-altitude diving at 3,000 m (10,000 ft) above sea level or higher since this can prevent the watch from functioning properly or lead to an accident resulting in danger. In addition, this watch does not display depth properly when used in water other than seawater (specific gravity of
1.025).
WARNING
In order to ensure safe diving, dive while allowing an adequate margin of safety relative to the displayed no-decompression limit time.
WARNING
If decompression diving should happen to occur, immediately start to ascend while observing an ascent rate of no more than 18 m (60 ft)/min.
Since decompression diving is associated with a high risk of decompression sickness, observe the following matters at all times.
• Make a decompression stop while ascending in accordance with decompression stop instructions.
• When making a decompression stop, never ascend to a depth less than the instructed depth.
• Since it is difficult to maintain a constant depth when there are high waves and so forth, make decompression stops at depths a little deeper than the instructed depth to prevent decompression sickness.
* A permanent error (ERROR) occurs when continuing to dive while ignoring decompression stop
instructions during the course of decompression diving, and the watch will not switch to the dive mode for 24 hours after that time.
9
WARNING
Skin diving after scuba diving is not recommended since it can have a serious effect on your health. It is recommended to avoid skin diving for at least two hours after scuba diving and not to exceed a depth of 5 m (15 ft).
CAUTION Data Storage
Always make sure to keep a separate record of important data recorded in the watch.
Diving data in particular should be transferred to your PC or recorded in a log book as quickly as possible. The various data recorded in the watch may be lost when subjected to incorrect use or the effects of strong electricity and electrical noise as well as during a malfunction and repair.

WARNING
When using the watch during diving, always make sure to receive the proper diving instruction and training and use the watch while obeying all rules. Failure to observe these matters can lead to decompression sickness, oxygen toxication or other accidents involving death or serious injury.
* Please refer to these matters along with the section describing “Safety Precautions”
on pp. 7-11 for further details.
• In the case of using this watch for diving, always make sure to also use other
backup equipment (including a DCIEM dive table, divers watch, residual pressure gauge and water depth gauge) to ensure safety.
• Inspect the watch to make sure that all functions operate properly before diving.
• It is recommended to only use this watch for recreational diving down to a depth of
about 18 m (60 ft). Do not attempt to dive below the limit depth of 40 m (131 ft) during recreational diving.
• Always make sure to allow an ample margin for no-decompression time.
• Perform adequate safety stops and decompression stops. Even in the case of no-
decompression diving, always make a safety stop at 5 m (15 ft) to ensure safety. In addition, in the case the decompression stop display appears, try to stop for a period longer than that indicated on the display.
• Allow for a sufficient rest period after diving in accordance with safety rules.
Boarding an airplane or moving to a high altitude without allowing for a sufficient rest period after diving results in the risk of decompression sickness.
PROHIBITED Prohibited Use During Diving
Never attempt to use this watch for diving under the following circumstances.
• When diving is prohibited in the system monitor mode:
··· The watch will not switch to the dive mode when [ ] has changed to NG.
• When the watch has stopped running or an error has occurred (be careful not to
bump the watch against hard objects such as equipment or rocks when diving).
• When measuring water depth outside the guaranteed temperature range or at an
altitude of 3,000 m (10,000 ft) or higher
··· The temperature range for which the water depth measurement accuracy of this watch is guaranteed is from +10°C to +40°C (50°F to 104°F).
··· The water depth measurement function does not operate at high altitudes equivalent to 3,000 m (10,000 ft) above sea level or higher.
• When engaged in dangerous behavior or when a situation is judged to be dangerous:
··· This watch is not built to function as a preventive or emergency instrument such
as for use during marine accidents.
• When using in a helium gas atmosphere (saturation diving, etc.):
··· Use under these conditions can cause a malfunction or damage to the watch.

Cautions Regarding Use During Diving

16
Cautions Regarding Use During Diving
Please make sure to observe the following matters before, during and after diving.
WARNING Cautions Before Diving
• Sufficiently charge the watch and confirm that the watch is reliably charged and that the watch can be used for diving by referring to the system monitor mode. If the watch is not sufficiently charged, the watch will not switch to the dive mode even if diving is started. In addition, try to start a dive after first sufficiently charging the watch before diving to avoid having the watch become insufficiently charged while diving.
• During NITROX diving, check that the oxygen concentration (O
2%) is correctly set to
the oxygen concentration of the tank actually used before each dive. Diving with the oxygen concentration set incorrectly may cause incorrect information to be displayed during diving, greatly increasing the risk of decompression sickness and oxygen toxication. The oxygen concentration (O
2%) cannot be set or changed while in the
water and after a dive has been started. Always make sure to check and set the oxygen concentration prior to diving.
• Check whether “ERR (Error)”, “CHK (Check)” or “CHRG (Charge)” is displayed on the display. The watch will not switch to the dive mode when “ERR” or “CHK” are displayed. If “CHRG (Charge)” is displayed, since this indicates that the watch is not fully charged, the watch may become insufficiently charged while diving.
• Confirm that the band is securely attached to the watch body.
• Confirm that the band and glass are free of cracks, scratches, chips and other abnormalities.
• Confirm that the time and date are set correctly.
• Confirm that the depth alarm and dive time alarm are set correctly.
• When there is a large difference between the temperature of the watch and the water temperature, immerse the watch in the water for at least 5 minutes to acclimate the temperature of the watch to the water temperature and then remove it from the water before diving. A large difference between the watch temperature and water temperature (such as in the case of placing the watch in water having after allowed it to sit in direct sunlight) can prevent water depth from being measured accurately.
WARNING Cautions During Diving
• Avoid ascending too rapidly. A rapid ascent can cause decompression sickness and have other detrimental effects on the body. Observe the safe ascent rate at all times.
• Please note that when underwater, it may be difficult to hear the sound of the dive alarm or other alarms depending on surrounding conditions (such as breathing noise and air bubble noise) and the manner in which the watch is worn.
• Be careful not to run out of air. This watch does not manage the amount of air remaining in the air tank. The diver is responsible for managing the amount of air remaining.
• In the event the watch should happen not to operate properly while underwater, either ascend immediately while following the instructions of the instructor or begin ascending immediately at an ascent rate of no more than 18 m (60 ft) per minute and make a safety stop at 5 m (15 ft) as long as your air lasts.
17
WARNING Cautions After Diving
• Make sure to rest sufficiently after diving by referring to the surface mode (which measures the amount of time elapsed after diving and no fly time).
• After removing any moisture, mud, sand or other foreign matter adhered to the watch by thoroughly rinsing with fresh water, completely wipe off the watch with a dry cloth.
• Do not attempt to remove the sensor cover or poke at it with a sharp object to attempt to remove any dirt or debris trapped in the pressure sensor. In addition, do not spray the pressure sensor with air under high pressure such as that from an air gun. In the case that debris has become trapped in the pressure sensor, rinse it out with fresh water. If it is still unable to be removed, consult your nearest Citizen Service Center.
CAUTION Diving in Fresh Water
• Although this watch is compatible with high-altitude diving, since it is ultimately designed on the premise of diving in seawater, it does not display the correct water depth if used in water other than seawater.
• Only use this watch for diving in fresh water after having received special safety training. Since this watch displays water depth by converting on the basis of seawater (specific gravity: 1.025), the water depth is actually 2.5% deeper than the displayed depth. Example: Displayed water depth of 20 m
M 1.025 = 20.5 m (actual water depth)
(66 ft
M 1.025 = 68 ft)
* Although an error occurs in the displayed water depth during freshwater diving at high altitudes
and so forth, the calculations of the dive computer are performed correctly.
18
This watch is provided with numerous convenient functions used during diving.
L
Various information is displayed to serve as a reference for safe diving by calculating residual body nitrogen based on depth during diving, dive time and previous dive history, etc. (Dive Computer Function).
* Decompression Calculation Algorithm
This watch employs the calculation formula of the Canadian Defense and Civil Institute of Environmental Medicine (DCIEM).
L
This watch is compatible with NITROX diving (NITROX: mixed gas having an oxygen concentration that differs from compressed air used in ordinary diving) and high-altitude diving.
• The oxygen concentration (O2%) of the mixed gas can be set within the range of 22% to 50%.
• Since the pressure sensor periodically measures air pressure even when on land and calculates the body’s nitrogen level each time, decompression calculations are performed corresponding to altitude based on actual air pressure prior to diving during high-altitude diving as well.
L
Measurement of water depth begins automatically simply by placing the watch on your wrist and entering the water, and various data (depth, elapsed time, etc.) are measured automatically while diving.
L
This watch distinguishes between skin diving and scuba diving according to diving conditions (depth and dive time), and a maximum of 100 sets of log data are automatically recorded for both types of diving.
L
This watch is also provided with various warning functions necessary for safe diving.
L
Log data and profile data (up to 2 hours) automatically recorded in the watch can be transferred to a PC by using the infrared communication interface or communication unit*
1
, making it possible to easily manage and generate graphic representations of
transferred data on your PC.
Various watch functions can be set on your PC.
L
The following watch settings can be transferred to and edited on your PC using the infrared communication interface or communication unit*
1
.
• Addition, deletion and alteration of locations displayed in each mode by the watch.
• Various travel time, alarm and destination timer settings.
• Setting of dive alarm used during diving and entry of the number of previous dives.
• Setting of daily graphics and graphics displayed on anniversaries (graphic display).
This watch is also equipped with an infrared communication function.
L
The wrist watch infrared communication standard (IrWW) is used for infrared communication. This enables the time and alarm time to be set between watches using this standard.
L
If a friend or acquaintance has the same watch, data can be transferred between those watches (including time, date, alarm and dive alarm settings). In addition, communication with a PC can also be performed using infrared communication.

An approximate indication of the amount of charge remaining in the watch can be confirmed on the display. The charge level indicator can be displayed in either the time mode of the standard mode (location display) or the system monitor mode.

1. How to Read the Charge Level Indicator of the watch

The charge level indicator changes in the manner shown below according to the amount of elapsed time the watch has been used.

Charge Level Indicator and Continuous Usage Time

Amount of Charge
The "Insufficient Charge Warning Function (BATT displayed)" is activated here. Charge the watch immediately. (Refer to the section on "Warning Functions" for further details.)
All watch functions stop.
Usage time
The watch switches to the "Low power mode" here.
About 60% charged to fully charged
About 10-20% charged
Insufficiently charged. The watch cannot be used for diving. Charge the watch immediately.
Nearly insufficiently charged. Charge the watch promptly. Since the watch may become insufficiently charged during diving, charge the watch sufficiently before diving to ensure safety.
* The above illustration provides a graphic representation of the amount of residual charge in the
watch and the changes in the charge level indicator.
27

2. Continuous Usage Time

This watch will continue to run for about 1 month (until the insufficient charge warning function is activated) once it has been fully charged.
This is roughly based on the conditions of use indicated below.
• Diving (water depth measurement): Twice/week (30 min./dive)
• Alarm: 30 seconds/day
• Chronograph measurement: 1 hour/week
• EL light: 4 seconds/day
* The continuous usage time of the watch becomes shorter the more often the alarm,
chronograph and other functions are used. In addition, the continuous usage time is further reduced by infrared communication.
* Since the water sensor is activated when the watch gets wet even when not diving, the
continuous usage time becomes correspondingly shorter.

Using the EL Light

The EL light is illuminated for about 1 second when the EL light button on the front of the watch is pressed in any of the modes except for the infrared communication mode. The EL light is illuminated for about 5 seconds when the EL light button is pressed continuously.
CAUTION
The EL light is desighed to enhance daylight viewing. At night an external light source may be required to view the display.

This mode provides a general indication of the amount of charge remaining in the watch along with the usage status of flash memory.

A. Switching the Display

• The display switches back and forth each time the upper right button (B) is pressed once in the system monitor mode.
• The watch's identification number is displayed when the upper left button (C) is pressed and then released during the flash memory status display.
* The watch automatically returns to the time mode when none of the buttons are pressed for
about 3 minutes in the system monitor mode.
* The watch identification number displayed here is required during user registration.

B. Charge Level Indicator

The charge level indicator provides a general reference for determining the amount of charge remaining in the watch. In addition, it also indicates whether or not each function can be operated ("OK" or "NG") at the current charge level. In case of insufficient power it will display "NG", however if the watch has sufficient power for a function, it will display "OK", and that function can be operated. The indicates that a function can be operated, but additional charging is recommended.
* Please refer to “Charge Level Indicator and Continuous Usage Time” for information on a general
indicator of the amount of charge.
G.C.: Garbage Collection
This indicates whether or not the garbage collection operation can be performed. * This watch uses flash memory to store the various settings and diving data of the watch edited
with a personal computer. Whenever new data is recorded in flash memory, areas of memory that are no longer used as well as areas of memory in the gaps between data are generated in the flash memory. Garbage collection refers to an operation that creates continuous areas of available memory so that these areas can be reused automatically.

: Diving Function
This indicates whether or not the watch can be used for diving.
• The display means that the watch is insufficiently charged for use during diving. Although the dive mode continues to operate even in this state, if diving is performed while in this state, the watch may become insufficiently charged during diving. Sufficient charge the watch prior to diving to ensure safety.
• When "NG" is displayed, the watch will not switch to the dive mode. The watch can therefore not be used for diving in this state.
Ir: Infrared Communication Function
This indicates whether or not the infrared communication function can be used for data transfer with a personal computer or between watches.

C. Flash Memory Status Display

This display provides a general indication of the amount of flash memory available. In addition, garbage collection can also be performed during this display by pressing one of the buttons.
<Reading the Bar Graph>
a: Black segment: Area in which data has been written
and then deleted.
/The area corresponding to this segment is transformed
into available memory by performing garbage collection.
b: Gray segment: Area currently used by files.
/This segment becomes larger the greater the amount of
diving data, daily graphic data and so forth.
c: White segment: Area of available memory.

D. Garbage Collection Operating Procedure

Garbage collection begins when the upper left button (C) is pressed for at least 2 seconds and then released during the flash memory status display.
• During the garbage collection operation, an alarm sounds and "G.C." is displayed on the display. When garbage collection is completed, "Done" is displayed on the display.
• Garbage collection cannot be performed when "G.C." has changed to "NG" on the charge level indicator. "Fail" is displayed on the display at this time.
<General Reference for Performing Garbage Collection>
Try to perform garbage collection when the black segment on the flash memory status display is larger than the white segment (available memory). Garbage collection consumes considerable power. For this reason as well, in order to ensure that flash memory is used efficiently, it is recommended to perform garbage collection whenever the watch is charged (fully charged).

* If “Error” appears on the display or “G.C.” remains displayed during garbage collection, there
may be a problem in the flash memory. In this case, after formatting flash memory while referring to “Formatting Flash Memory”, try repeating the garbage collection procedure. If “Error” is still displayed, the watch may have a malfunction. Please request that the watch be repaired at the Citizen Service Center.
* Garbage collection is only performed to organize the contents of flash memory. There is no risk
of deleting watch settings or diving logs as a result of performing garbage collection.

This watch is equipped with various warning functions for the purpose of avoiding risks and problems when diving as much as possible.
WARNING
* Do not dive in a manner that activates any of the warning functions.
Since the degree of risk varies according to experience, physical condition and diving conditions, do not assume that diving is completely safe just because none of the warning functions are activated. Please use the warning functions as a general indicator of diving safety.
CAUTION
If a warning alarm sounds during diving, first begin to ascend to a shallow depth at an ascent rate of no more than 18 m (60 ft)/min to ensure safety.
Since the risk involved increases as you dive to greater depths, multiple alarms may continue simultaneously, causing multiple warning alarms to sound.

2. Explanation of Warning Functions

Insufficient Charge Warning
When the watch becomes insufficiently charged, "BATT" flashes in the lower left corner of the display in all of the modes of the standard mode. Operation of the following functions is limited while this warning function is activated.
• The watch does not switch to the dive mode even if the water sensor gets wet. (The watch automatically switches to the charge level indicator display of the system monitor mode when the water sensor gets wet.)
• None of the alarms sound.
• Data cannot be transferred by infrared communication. (However, data can be transmitted to a personal computer by USB communication.)
• The EL light is not illuminated.
When this warning function is activated, charge the watch by attaching to the charger as soon as possible. The display will return to normal once the watch is sufficiently charged.
* None of the dive alarms sound when the insufficient charge warning function is activated during
diving. Although the dive computer will function normally for about 30 minutes after “BATT” starts to flash, the log data for that dive is not recorded after “BATT” has started flashing. Promptly begin to ascend it this warning function is activated during diving.
* If the watch remains insufficiently charged after the insufficient charge warning function has
been activated, it switches to the low power mode after about 2 days. Please note that if the watch continues to be left uncharged in the low power mode, all functions stop and all watch settings return to the initial (default) settings.
File Error Warning
When the amount of available memory in flash memory becomes low, "FILE" flashes in the lower left corner of the display in all of the modes of the standard mode as well as in the dive mode. The watch automatically switches to the flash memory status display of the system monitor mode when the water sensor gets wet while this warning function is activated. Please note that although it is possible to use the watch for diving in this state, log data may not be recorded in flash memory during diving. The file error warning function is also activated and additional log data is not recorded if the duration of a single dive exceeds 2 hours or if more than 15 dives are made in a single day. The file error warning function may also be activated when the water temperature during diving is low. It may not be possible to receive watch settings by data communication while the file error warning function is activated.
When the watch has switched to the file error warning display, perform the garbage collection procedure in the system monitor mode of the standard mode. The display returns to normal following completion of garbage collection.

Abnormal Pressure Detection Error Warning
When abnormal atmosphere pressure is detected during use on land, or when ascending to high locations more than 3,000 m (10,000 ft) above sea level, "ERR" (Error) flashes in the lower left corner of the display. The watch does not switch to the dive mode even if the water sensor gets wet while this warning function is activated.
If "ERR" does not disappear from the display even after a long period of time, there may be a problem with the pressure sensor. When this happens, discontinue using the watch and consult a Citizen Service Center.
Water Sensor Check Warning
If the preliminary dive display continues to be displayed for more than 1 hour after the water sensor has gotten wet and the watch has switched to the preliminary dive display in the dive mode, "CHK" (Check) flashes in the lower left corner of the display to inform the wearer that the water sensor should be checked.
* "CHK" also flashes when the watch returns to the normal display from any of
the correction states, when the watch is returned to the time mode of the standard mode from the infrared communication mode, and when the water sensor is operating during the all reset procedure.
The watch does not switch to the dive mode (water depth measurement display) when "CHK" is flashing.
To check the sensor, remove any debris or moisture from the water sensor with a dry cloth. The display returns to normal when the water sensor is canceled.
Ascent Rate Warning
When the ascent rate during scuba diving exceeds 18 m (60 ft)/min, the ascent rate warning alarm sounds for 5 seconds and "SLOW" and an illustration of a turtle are displayed at the bottom of the display.
The ascent rate warning alarm stops sounding when a proper ascent rate is resumed.
* The ascent rate warning alarm does not sound during skin diving (continuous diving for less than 3 minutes
at a depth of 1 m (4 ft) or more).
Abnormal Depth Warning
When a sudden change in depth of more than 4 m (13 ft)/sec is detected during diving, the watch assumes that the watch has reached an abnormal depth. At this time, "ERR" and the diver mark are alternately displayed in the lower left corner of the display.
Once "ERR" has been displayed during diving, it continues to be displayed until the dive mode is terminated.
CAUTION
Avoid using this watch in environments subject to sudden changes in water pressure such as when using ocean floor excavation or similar equipment.
The vibrations from such equipment may cause a change in water pressure of "4 m (13 ft) or more per second" to be locally and momentarily applied to the pressure sensor of the watch, causing "ERR" to be displayed and preventing water depth from being displayed correctly.

Exceed Maximum Depth Warning
When the limit depth of 40 m (131 ft) for recreational diving is surpassed during the course of diving, an exceed maximum depth error occurs, the current depth flashes and the alarm sounds for 15 seconds. During diving at a depth greater than 40 m (131 ft), the warning alarm sounds for 15 seconds every minute.
This warning function is canceled when the depth returns to 40 m (131 ft) or less.
Decompression Diving Warning
This alarm sounds for 3 seconds and the decompression stop indicator (STOP) is displayed on the display when the no-decompression limit time has been exceeded resulting in decompression diving during the course of diving.
The display returns to the no-decompression diving display when decompression stop is performed in accordance the decompression stop instructions.
Decompression Diving Error
When decompression diving takes place beyond the no-decompression limit time during diving in the NITROX setting, together with the alarm sounding for 1 second and the decompression stop indicator (STOP) being displayed on the display, the instructed depth and instructed time flash. During a decompression diving error, the instructed depth and instructed time continue to flash, and the alarm sounds for 15 seconds every minute.
Ascend to a shallow depth at a safe ascent rate as soon as possible. The display returns to the no-decompression diving display when a decompression stop is performed in accordance with the decompression stop instructions.
Permanent Error Warning
The instructed depth flashes and an alarm sounds continuously when either of conditions 1 or 2 below are met. If hazardous diving or ascending is continued while ignoring this warning, a permanent error (ERROR) occurs:
1. When not ascending to the instructed depth and continuing to dive at
an excessively low depth (diving at which the instructed decompression stop depth exceeds 9 m (30 ft).) even though having been instructed to make a decompression stop (Permanent Error Warning 1).
The warning stops when the diver begins to ascend immediately and the decompression stop instructed depth reaches 9 m (30 ft) or less.
2. When having ascended to a depth 1 m (4 ft) or more less than the instructed depth after
having been instructed to make a decompression stop (Permanent Error Warning 2).
In this case, the warning is canceled when the diver returns to the instructed depth.

Permanent Error
If hazardous diving or ascending is continued even after the permanent error warning function has been activated, a permanent error results, "ERROR" appears on the display and the entire display flashes.
When a permanent error has occurred, the next dive cannot be made for 24 hours. (The water depth measurement function does not operate for 24 hours. In addition, "ERROR" is displayed when the watch is switched to the dive plan mode, and the no-decompression limit time is not displayed.)
PO2 Limit Warning
PO2 flashes to warn that the PO2 limit is approaching at the depth where PO2 (body partial pressure of oxygen) reaches 1.4 during diving in the NITROX setting.
The alarm stops when you ascend to a shallow depth and PO2 falls below 1.4.
PO2 limit Error
An alarm sounds for 15 seconds every minute in addition to PO2 flashing display when PO2 exceeds the limit of 1.6 as a result of not ascending to a shallow depth even after the PO2 limit warning has been activated.
The error is canceled and the display returns to the PO2 limit
warning display when you ascend to a shallow depth and PO
2 falls
below 1.6.
Oxygen Toxication Time Warning
When the amount of time remaining until the oxygen toxication time (OTT) decreases to less than 10 minutes during diving in the NITROX setting, the display in the upper right corner of the display changes from no-decompression limit time (NDL) to remaining OTT time (flashing). In the case of decompression diving, remaining OTT time flashes instead of the total ascent time in the upper right corner of the display.
The warning stops if you ascend to a shallow depth and the
remaining OTT time returns to 10 minutes or more.
Oxygen Toxication Time Error
If the remaining OTT time reaches 0 minutes as a result of not ascending to a shallow depth even after the oxygen toxication time warning has been activated, an oxygen toxication error occurs, and in addition to “0’ ” flashing for the remaining OTT time, the alarm sounds for 15 seconds every minute.
The error is canceled and the display returns to the oxygen toxication time warning state when you ascend to a shallow depth and the remaining OTT time increases.

The following provides an explanation of the diving terms displayed by this watch along with their basic meanings.
<Algorithm>
This watch employs the calculation formula of the Canadian Defense and Civil Institute of Environmental Medicine (DCIEM).
<Scuba Diving and Skin Diving>
This watch automatically distinguishes between skin diving and scuba diving according to the following conditions, and records log data separately for each type of diving.
• Scuba diving: Continuously diving for 3 minutes or more to a depth of 1 m (4 ft) or more
• Skin diving: Continuously diving for less than 3 minutes to a depth of 1 m (4 ft) or more
<No-Decompression Diving and No-Decompression Limit (NDL) Time>
No-decompression diving (NDL = No-Decompression Limit) refers to diving that allows the diver to ascend to the surface without stopping for decompression during the course of ascending following completion of a dive. The limit time during which this no-decompression diving is allowed is referred to as the no-decompression limit time. No-decompression limit time varies according to the diving depth and diving time of the previous dives.
<One Dive>
In this watch, one dive constitutes the time from initially diving to a depth of 1 m (4 ft) (start of dive) from the preliminary dive mode state to the time the dive mode is terminated (end of dive).
<NITROX Diving>
NITROX diving refers to diving in which a mixed gas of oxygen and nitrogen is used that has a higher oxygen concentration than ordinary air tanks. This watch allows the oxygen concentration (O2%) to be set within the range of 22% to 50% in the dive plan mode.
* NITROX diving reduces the diver’s risk of decompression sickness by reducing the nitrogen ratio (%) to a
level lower than ordinary AIR diving. However, increasing the oxygen ratio (%) also invites the risk of “oxygen toxication” for the diver, a condition that is unpredictable in the case of AIR diving. In the case of performing NITROX diving, always make sure to receive safety training relating to NITROX diving in advance.
<AIR Diving>
AIR diving refers to diving using an ordinary air tank (compressed air having an oxygen concentration of 21%). This watch uses the term AIR diving to distinguish it from NITROX diving in which the oxygen concentration is 22% or higher.
<High-Altitude Diving and Altitude Setting>
High-altitude diving refers to diving at a high altitude of 300 m (1,000 ft) or more above sea level (such as in lakes, ponds or rivers). Since this watch calculates no-decompression time when diving by calculating body nitrogen level based on actual atmospheric pressure periodically measured while on land prior to diving, special settings are not required during high-altitude diving. However, water depth is displayed based on seawater (specific gravity: 1.025) even when diving in fresh water.
* Since atmospheric pressure at high altitudes differs from that at lower altitudes where ordinary diving is
performed, high-altitude diving requires special skills. In the case of performing high-altitude diving, always make sure to receive safety training regarding high-altitude diving in advance.

Diving Terms Used by this Watch

53
<Repetitive Diving>
Repetitive diving refers to diving that is repeated while there is still residual nitrogen in the body from the previous dive. The number of the next dive for repetitive diving is displayed on the second display of the dive plan mode.
<Decompression Diving>
This refers to diving beyond the no-decompression limit time. Decompression diving is extremely dangerous since nitrogen accumulates in the body beyond allowable levels. Never dive in this manner.
<Decompression Stop>
This refers to a stop that must be made to ensure the necessary decompression in the case of having performed decompression diving. It is necessary to make a decompression stop at a predetermined depth (decompression stop instructed depth) and predetermined time (decompression stop instructed time) when ascending.
<Safety Stop>
Safety stop refers to a temporary stop made during ascending for safety reasons in order to promote expulsion of nitrogen in the body, and is performed even if the no-decompression limit time has not been exceeded. In the case of having dove to a depth of 18 m (60 ft) or more, a safety stop should always be made at 5 m (15 ft) of depth to ensure safety.
<Total Ascent Time>
This refers to the minimum time required to ascend to the surface from the current depth in the case of ascending at the rate of 18 m (60 ft)/min or less while making a decompression stop in accordance with the decompression stop instructions during decompression diving.
<Body Nitrogen Level>
This refers to the amount of nitrogen dissolved in the body as a result of diving. This watch displays a general indicator of the amount of nitrogen dissolved in the body in the form of a bar graph. The higher the level of the black portion of the graph, the greater the body nitrogen level.
<Total number of Dives (Log Count)>
This indicates the total number of dives for scuba diving.
* Arbitrarily resetting the number of past dives with the “CAPgm” software provided before using the watch
for diving enables this to display the total number of scuba dives made throughout your life.
<Dive Date>
This is the date (year, month and date) on which a dive was made.
<Dive Number>
This is the number of dives made in one day. A maximum of 15 dives are counted per day for skin diving and scuba diving, respectively.
* This indicates the number of a dive for a particular dive date.
The counter is reset to 1 when the day changes.
<Surface Interval Time (S.I. Time)>
This refers to the elapsed time following completion of scuba diving (surface interval time (S.I. Time)). This watch measures surface interval time up to a maximum of 24 hours.
* S.I. Time as referred to in the scuba diving log mode represents the elapsed time from completion of the
dive of the previous log until the start of the dive of the current log.
54
<Dive Time>
This is the total time at a depth of 1 m (4 ft) or more during a single dive.
* Measurement of dive time starts when first going below a depth of 1 m (4 ft), and stops when
depth reaches less than 1 m (4 ft). However, if a dive is resumed to a depth of more than 1 m (4 ft) within 10 minutes from the time measurement of dive time stopped, dive time is continued to be measured from the time measurement stopped.
<Time In>
This is the time when the depth exceeds 1 m (4 ft) for the first time during the dive.
<Minimum Water Temperature (Min.w.temp)>
This is the minimum water temperature encountered during the course of a single dive.
<Maximum Depth (Max. Depth)>
This is the depth when having dove the deepest during the course of a single dive.
<Average Depth (Ave. Depth)>
This is the average depth during the course of a single dive.
* This refers to the average value of depth measured for every 5 seconds of dive time.
<Profile Log>
The watch displays a simple graph of the changes in depth during a dive.
* Data relating to depths measured every 5 seconds and water temperature measured every 5
minutes can be confirmed on a personal computer.
<Oxygen Concentration (O2
%)>
This refers to the ratio (%) of oxygen in the tank used for diving. During NITROX diving, always make sure to set the oxygen concentration according to the oxygen concentration of the tank actually used in the dive plan mode. The oxygen concentration (O
2
%) can be
set within a range of 22% to 50%.
<Oxygen Toxication>
This refers to a rejection reaction (consisting of symptoms such as dizziness, nausea and paralysis) that occurs due to the infusion of large amounts of oxygen into the human body. This condition can be fatal in extreme circumstances.
<Partial Pressure of Oxygen in the Body (PO2)>
The partial pressure of oxygen in the body (PO2) refers to the absolute pressure (ATA) of oxygen that acts within the body. The partial pressure of oxygen in the body is determined by the NITROX oxygen concentration and depth, and increases as depth becomes deeper. In general, the limit at which oxygen toxication occurs in the human body is said to be PO
2 = 1.6 (ATA). The display of this watch flashes when PO2 is between 1.4 and
1.5, and when PO
2 reaches 1.6 or higher, an alarm sounds to warn the diver.
<Oxygen Toxication Time (OTT)>
Oxygen toxication time (OTT) refers to the limit time of oxygen toxication. The oxygen toxication time is determined by the NITROX oxygen concentration, depth and dive time. In this watch, when the amount of time remaining until oxygen toxication time decreases to less than 10 minutes, the amount of time remaining until OTT flashes on the display, and when the oxygen toxication time reaches 0 minutes, an alarm sounds to warn the diver.
55
This mode is used to set the plan for the next dive. The dive plan mode uses the three displays described below.
Dive Condition Display:
This lets you change between AIR diving and NITROX diving and set the oxygen concentration (O
2%). Continuously displays the
current settings.
• Dive Plan Display: This lets you display the number of the next dive for repetitive diving,
a graph of the body nitrogen level, and the no-decompression limit time corresponding to initial and repetitive diving.
• Dive Alarm Display: This lets you display and set the depth alarm and dive time alarm.

1. Switching the Display

The display changes each time the lower right button (A) is pressed once in the dive plan mode. The displayed contents differ between when the watch is set to AIR and when it is set to NITROX diving.

* If none of the buttons are pressed for about 3 minutes during each of the displays of the dive plan
mode, the watch automatically returns to the time mode of the standard mode.
* The dive condition mark of the dive plan display changes to the high altitude mark in environments at
an air pressure equivalent to high-altitude diving.

2. NITROX Setting

The NITROX setting is for use when diving with a mixed gas having an oxygen concentration that differs from that of air tanks used for ordinary diving (oxygen concentration: 21%). Set the watch to AIR for all other types of diving. The watch will return to the AIR dive mode automatically after 6 hours have elpased without diving, or, 30 minutes have elpased during surface interval time after NITROX diving.
DANGER
Always double check the oxygen concentration (O2%) before each and every NITROX dive.
It is very important to ensure that the percentage of oxygen carried in your tank, maches the setting of the watch exactly. Failure to comply with this instruction may result in decompression sickness, oxgen toxication or death . The oxygen concentration (O2%) setting cannot be changed whilst diving, therfore always check that the correct O2% is set before diving.

3. High-Altitude Setting

Since air pressure decreases at high altitudes, it is necessary to take this change in air pressure into consideration when calculating the body partial pressure of oxygen. This watch periodically measures air pressure and then calculates the body partial pressure of oxygen each time based on the measured air pressure, thereby eliminating the need to manually set the watch for high altitudes. In environments where air pressure is low, the watch automatically judges the environment to be a high-altitude environment, and the dive condition mark changes to the high altitude mark ( or ). The altitude at which the dive condition mark changes to the high altitude mark is about 300 m (1,000 ft) above sea level.
CAUTION
The high altitude mark is only intended to serve as a general indicator of high altitude. There may be times when the dive condition mark does not change to the high altitude mark even at altitudes above 300 m (1,000 ft) above sea level, or times when the dive condition mark changes to the high altitude mark even though the watch is at a low altitude below 300 m (1,000 ft) above sea level. In any case, the watch can still be used without risk since the dive computer calculates the body partial pressure of oxygen corresponding to the air pressure at that time.

4. Dive Condition Marks

The dive condition currently set for each of the time modes of the standard mode, the dive plan display in the dive plan mode and the surface mode is displayed using one of the four types of marks indicated below.
• Identification of the AIR or NITROX setting for the next dive set in the dive plan mode
• Identification of high-altitude diving automatically set according to the air pressure measured
by the pressure sensor
AIR setting AIR setting and high-altitude diving
NITROX setting NITROX setting and high-altitude diving
* The dive condition mark ( or ) flashes for about 1 hour to warn the diver in the case the watch has
automatically returned to the AIR setting from the NITROX setting.

(3) The oxygen concentration setting is finalized by pressing the upper left button (C) or lower
left button (D) and then releasing.
* Oxygen concentration (O2%) can be set between 22% and 50%. * If none of the buttons are pressed for about 3 minutes in the oxygen concentration setting state
(display flashing), the flashing oxygen concentration setting is finalized automatically and the watch changes to the NITROX setting display.
* In the case of changing the oxygen concentration setting after it has been set, reset the oxygen
concentration after first returning to the “AIR” setting display.

B. Switching from NITROX Setting to AIR Setting

After about 30 minutes have elapsed for surface interval time after having performed scuba diving in the “NITROX” setting, an alarm sounds and the watch automatically returns to the “AIR” setting. In addition, if scuba diving is not performed for about 6 hours after having set the watch to NITROX, the watch automatically returns to the “AIR” setting. In the case of returning to the “AIR” setting after having set the watch to “NITROX”, return the watch to the “AIR” setting by pressing the upper left button (C) for 2 seconds or more and then releasing during the “NITROX” display.

such cases, "WAIT" is displayed while log data is being called up. The water sensor and none of the button operations function while "WAIT" is displayed.

3. Deleting Log Data

Individual sets of log data cannot be deleted. When a new dive is made when there are already 100 sets of dive data recorded for the total dive data of scuba diving log data and skin diving log data, the oldest log data is automatically deleted.
CAUTION
It is strongly recommended to promptly record important log data in another storage medium.
When a new dive is made and there are already 100 sets of dive data recorded for the total dive data of scuba diving log data and skin diving log data, the oldest log data is automatically deleted. In addition, since there is also the possibility of data being lost due to a malfunction in the watch or during repairs or inspections, it is recommended to promptly transfer data to a personal computer following completion of diving. Please note that the manufacturer cannot be responsible for data that is lost due to a malfunction.
63
This mode measures water depth while in the water. The watch automatically switches to the dive mode when the water sensor detects water in any mode except for the infrared communication mode and power save mode. The watch automatically begins to measure water depth when the water depth reaches 1 m (4 ft) or more during the preliminary dive display. During diving, the dive computer performs calculations corresponding to the set dive condition, and displays information required by the diver, including the current depth, dive time and maximum depth.
• During the preliminary dive display, the diver mark flashes in the lower left corner of the display and the display of each mode prior to switching to the preliminary dive display is maintained.
• Once measurement of water depth begins, if diving continues for more than 3 minutes at a depth of more than 1 m (4 ft), the watch switches to the scuba diving display and displays no­decompression limit time.
• The diver mark flashes in the lower left corner of the display while diving.
DANGER
During NITROX diving, always make sure to check that the oxygen concentration (O2%) is correctly set to the oxygen concentration of the tank actually used prior to diving.
Oxygen concentration (O2%) cannot be set or changed while in the water or after starting a dive. Always make sure to set oxygen concentration prior to diving.
WARNING
Before starting a dive, always make sure to check that the “Diver Mark” is flashing in the lower left corner of the display during the preliminary dive display.
The water depth measurement function will not operate if “BATT”, “ERR” or “CHK” is flashing in the lower left corner of the display during the preliminary dive display (indicating that a warning function has been activated). In the state in which “CHRG” (Charge) is displayed, the watch may become insufficiently charged while diving. In addition, even if the insufficient charge warning function (“BATT” is displayed) has not been activated, to avoid the watch becoming insufficiently charged while diving, start the dive after first sufficiently charging the watch.
* Refer to “Warning Functions” for further details.

1. Explanation of Display During Water Depth Measurement

The display during diving differs between the AIR setting (air diving) and NITROX setting (NITROX diving). Even in the case of performing scuba diving, the watch displays the skin diving display until 3 minutes or more have elapsed continuously at a depth of 1 m (4 ft) or more.

DANGER
Never dive in a manner that requires a decompression stop (decompression diving).
If decompression diving should happen to occur, immediately start to ascend while observing an ascent rate of no more than 18 m (60 ft)/min. Make a decompression stop while ascending in accordance with decompression stop instructions. When making a decompression stop, never ascend to a depth less than the instructed depth. In addition, since it is difficult to maintain a constant depth when there are high waves and so forth, make decompression stops at depths a little deeper than the instructed depth to prevent decompression sickness.
* A permanent error (ERROR) occurs when continuing to dive while ignoring decompression stop
instructions during the course of decompression diving, and the watch will not switch to the dive mode for 24 hours after that time.

2. Safety Stop Graph and Decompression Stop Graph

A. Safety Stop Graph Display

A graph serving as a general reference for changes in depth during safety stop and the elapsed time during a safety stop are displayed after having descended to a depth of more than 5 m (15 ft) and then ascended to a depth of 5 m (15 ft) during scuba diving (no­decompression diving).
Reading the Safety Stop Graph
The horizontal axis of the graph represents elapsed time, while the vertical axis represents changes in depth over a range of 3 m (10 ft) to 7 m (23 ft) centering around a depth of 5 m (15 ft).

B. Decompression Stop Graph

When having ascending to the instructed depth of the decompression stop during decompression diving, a graph is displayed that provides a general reference for changes in depth during decompression stop at a depth of the instructed depth ±1 m (4 ft).
Reading the Decompression Stop Graph
The horizontal axis of the graph represents elapsed time, while the vertical axis represents changes in depth over a range of ±1 m (4 ft) from the decompression stop instructed depth.

3. Depth Measurement

This watch measures depth every second, and continuously displays the current depth in
0.1 m (0.3 ft) units during the course of diving.
• Measuring range: 1 m to 80 m (4 ft to 266 ft)
* 0 m (0 ft) is displayed at depths of less than 1 m (4 ft), while - -.- m is displayed at depths greater
than 80 m (266 ft).
* When an error has occurred in depth measurement during the course of diving, "ERR" and the diver
mark are alternately displayed until that dive is completed.

4. Dive Time Measurement

The elapsed time of dives made to a depth of more than 1 m (4 ft) is displayed. Measurement of dive time starts automatically when the depth exceeds 1 m (4 ft) for the first time, and stops when the depth again is less than 1 m (4 ft). However, if a dive is resumed to a depth of more than 1 m (4 ft) within 10 minutes from the time measurement of dive time stopped, dive time is continued to be measured from the time measurement stopped. Dive time is displayed for up to 9 minutes 59 seconds from the start of measurement in 1 second units. Beyond that time, dive time is displayed in 1 minute units.
• Measuring range: 0 minutes 00 seconds to 999 minutes 59 seconds

5. Water Temperature Measurement

The watch begins to measure water temperature one minute after the water depth reaches a depth greater than 1.0 m (4 ft), and the most recently measured water temperature is continuously displayed in 1°C (1°F) units at 1 minute intervals while diving. However, water temperature is only displayed when the lower right button (A) is pressed during decompression diving. (Water temperature measured in 0.1°C units rounded and displayed 1°C (1°F) units.)
• Measuring range: -9.4°C to +40.0°C (15°F to 104°F)

6. No. of Dives Per Day and Recording Log Data

A maximum of 15 dives of log data can be recorded per day for both skin diving and scuba diving. When the number of sets of log data exceeds 15, log data is no longer recorded during diving. Even though log data is not recorded, the watch will continue to measure depth and perform its various other functions during diving. In case the number of dives per day for skin diving exceeds 15, and the number of dives per day for scuda diving is 14 or less, "FILE" mark is displayed for the first 3 minutes on the watch display. But scuba diving log is held properly. After 3 minutes, the watch display automatically changes to scuba diving instead of skin diving, then "FILE" mark disappears.

7. Ending the Dive Mode

• The watch returns to the surface mode or the time mode of the standard mode when the lower left button (D) is pressed for at least 2 seconds and then released when 0 m (0 ft) is displayed after completion of a dive.
• The watch automatically returns to the surface mode or time mode of the standard mode after roughly 10 minutes have elapsed since 0 m (0 ft) is displayed following water depth measurement.

The surface mode is used to display elapsed time from the end of the most recent scuba dive (S.I. time) and the amount of time remaining until boarding an aircraft is permitted (no fly time).
DANGER
Avoid traveling in an aircraft while the surface mode is activated.
Traveling in an aircraft without allowing sufficient time to rest after diving results in the risk of decompression sickness. It is recommended to avoid traveling in an aircraft for at least 24 hours after diving whenever possible even if the surface mode is no longer displayed. There are no rules for completely preventing decompression sickness caused by flying in an aircraft after diving.
* The surface mode is preferentially displayed at all times after scuba diving. * When the no fly time reaches 0 hours 00 minutes, the watch exits the surface mode, and
returns to the time mode of the standard mode. The surface mode is not displayed after that time until completion of the next scuba dive.
* If the watch is insufficiently charged (when the level of the charge level indicator is ),
in the lower left corner of the display in the surface mode changes to to indicate
that the watch should be charged.

The low power mode is a special mode for allowing the watch to run while using the minimum amount of current consumption. When the watch becomes insufficiently charged, it automatically switches to this mode to conserve current consumption. In addition, the watch can be manually switched to the low power mode by pressing the lower right button (A) and lower left button (D) simultaneously for at least 2 seconds and then releasing in the time mode of the standard mode.
* Since all functions except for the time/date display and correction functions do not operate in the
low power mode, do not use this mode when using (wearing) the watch under normal circumstances.

1. Switching the Display

• The time and date displays switch back and forth each time the lower right button (A) is pressed once.
• The entire display goes out (no display) when the lower left button (D) is pressed for at least 2 seconds and then released during the time display or date display. Pressing the lower left button (D) again for at least 2 seconds and then releasing returns the watch to the time display.
• The watch returns to the time mode of the standard mode (or to the surface mode when the surface mode has been activated) when the lower right button (A) and lower left button (D) are pressed simultaneously for at least 2 seconds and then released during the time display or date display.

* When the watch has switched to the low power mode as a result of being insufficiently charged,
the watch does not return to the time mode of the standard mode even if the lower right button (A) and lower left button (D) are pressed simultaneously for at least 2 seconds and then released. In this case, the watch will only return to the time mode of the standard mode when the watch has been sufficiently charged and the lower right button (A) and lower left button (D) are again pressed simultaneously for at least 2 seconds. If the watch has been left not recharged in the low power mode, it will become completely discharged and all the functions will stop.
* When there is no display, the amount of current consumed is even less than during the time
display or date display.

2. Setting the Time and Date

(1) The watch enters the correction state (display is flashing) when
the upper left button (C) is pressed for at least 2 seconds and then released during the time display or date display.
(2) The flashing item changes in the order shown below each time
the upper left button (C) is pressed and then released.
(3) Correct the flashing item by pressing the upper right button (B).
• Pressing the upper right button (B) advances the display by one step at a time each time it is pressed. (Pressing the upper right button (B) continuously causes the display to change rapidly.)
• The watch returns to 00 seconds when the upper right button (B) is pressed while correcting seconds. (The minutes advance by 1 minute if the seconds are between 30 and 59 seconds at that time.)
• When switching the 12H/24H format, the display switches back and forth between the 12 hour and 24 hour format each time the upper right button (B) is pressed.
(4) Pressing the lower left button (D) once returns the watch to the normal display.
* The time and date of the main location in the time mode of the standard mode can be displayed
and corrected in the low power mode. Changes made to the time and date in the low power
mode are retained even after returning to the time mode of the standard mode. * The year can be set from 2000 to 2099. * Dates such as February 30 that do not actually exist are not displayed even during correction. * Pay attention to AM (A) and PM (P) when using the 12 hour format. * The day is corrected automatically by correcting the year, month and date. * The watch automatically returns to the normal display (time display or date display) when none
of the buttons are pressed for about 3 minutes in the correction state (display flashing). * The watch can be immediately returned to the normal display by pressing the lower left button

Data is transferred between watches or between the watch and personal computer using the data communication functions. There are two ways for transferring data: the first involves using the infrared communication interface, and the second involves using the communication unit (USB communication interface) function.

1. Infrared Communication

The infrared communication function of this watch uses an infrared (Ir) beam for communication in the same manner as the remote controllers of television sets and VCRs. Communication is performed between watches or between the watch and a personal computer by transmission and reception of this infrared beam by their respective infrared transmission/reception units.
* The infrared communication function of this watch complies with the wrist watch infrared
communication standard IrWW (IrDA for Wrist Watches).

A. Communication Range

The maximum distance infrared communication can be performed with this watch is 15 cm (5.9 inch) in the vertical direction to the infrared transmission/reception unit. Although directivity has a margin of about ±15°, the communication distance becomes shorter as the angle becomes wider.
* Remove any obstacles between the watches or between the watch and the personal computer
during infrared communication.
* Data may not be able to be transferred or an error may occur if other infrared communication
devices are nearby during infrared communication. * Avoid moving the watch as much as possible during infrared communication. * Perform infrared communication within a temperature range of +10°C to +35°C (50°F to 95°F).
Data may not be able to be transferred if outside this range. * Data may not be able to be transferred or an error may occur if infrared communication is
performed directly beneath a fluorescent lamp or in direct sunlight. * When transferring data between the watch and a personal computer using infrared
communication, the personal computer also must be set to be able to use infrared
communication. Refer to the instruction manual of the personal computer for information on
setting the personal computer for infrared communication.

“ERR” remains displayed for a long period of time
• “ERR” is displayed when using the watch on land (excluding high altitudes at 3,000 m (10,000 ft) or more above sea level)
• “ERR” continues to be displayed for a long period of time after completion of diving
There is an error in the pressure sensor. (“ERR” may be displayed at high-altitude locations of 3,000 m (10,000 ft) or more above sea level.)
As more and more flash memory is used, slightly more time may be required for the watch to switch modes and call up log data.
After rinsing off any debris around the water sensor with water, carefully wipe off any excess moisture with a dry cloth.
The water sensor continues to be activated due to the presence of sand, debris, perspiration or other matter on the water sensor.
The amount of available space in flash memory is low.
The watch is insufficiently charged and the ambient temperature is low.
* The file error warning may be
activated if the ambient temperature becomes low while the watch is insufficiently charged.
Flash memory error. Format the flash memory in the
system monitor mode of the standard mode. If the problem is still not solved, consult the Citizen Service Center.

WARNING Water Resistance Performance
This watch is water resistant to 200 meters. Although it can be used for air diving using an air tank (scuba diving), it cannot be used for saturation diving involving the use of helium gas.
CAUTION
• In order to maintain water resistance performance, have your watch inspected at a Citizen Service Center every one to two years, and have the gaskets, crystal or other components replaced as necessary.
• If moisture has entered the watch, or if the inside of the glass is fogged up and does not become clear for an extended period of time, do not leave the watch in that state, but immediately take the watch to a Citizen Service Center for inspection and repair.
• If sea water enters the watch, place the watch in a box or plastic bag, and immediately take it in for repair. Otherwise, pressure inside the watch will increase and parts (such as the glass and buttons) may come off.
WARNING Handling of Energy Storage Cell
• Do not attempt to remove the energy storage cell from the watch. If the energy storage cell must be unavoidably removed, place it in a location out of the reach of children to prevent accidental swallowing.
• If the energy storage cell is accidentally swallowed, contact a physician immediately and seek medical attention.
WARNING Only Use Specified Energy Storage Cell
• Never attempt to use an energy storage cell other than the energy storage cell used by this watch. Although the structure of the watch prevents the watch from operating if another battery is installed, if a silver battery or other type of battery is forcibly installed in the watch and the watch is attempted to be charged with that battery installed, the battery may rupture resulting in possible damage to the watch and physical injury. Always make sure to use the specified energy storage cell when replacing.

All parts of this watch, excluding the band, are to be repaired only at a Citizen Service Center.
Please have all inspections and repairs performed at a Citizen Service Center.
CAUTION Keep your watch clean
• The case and band of the watch come in direct contact with the skin in the same manner as clothing. Metal corrosion as well as perspiration, dirt, dust and other unnoticed debris may soil the cuffs and other parts of your clothing. Try to keep the watch clean at all times.
• Wearing of this watch may cause a rash or itching of the skin in people with sensitive skin or depending on the wearer’s physical condition. If you notice that you skin is affected by the watch, immediately stop wearing it and consult a physician.
<Cleaning the Watch>
• Use a soft cloth to wipe off dirt, perspiration and moisture from the case and crystal.
• Rinse off dirt from metal bands, plastic bands or rubber bands with water. Use a soft brush to remove any dirt or debris stuck between the gaps in metal bands.
• Avoid the use of solvents (such as thinner or benzine) as they may damage the finish.
CAUTION Precautions When Wearing the Watch
• Be careful while wearing the watch while holding an infant or child, by taking the watch off beforehand, to prevent injury or other accident.
• Be careful when engaged in vigorous exercise or work to prevent injury and accidents to yourself and others.
• Never wear the watch in a sauna or other locations where the watch can reach high temperatures since this can cause burns.
CAUTION
Handling of the Band (Cautions when Putting on and Taking Off the Watch)
Depending on the structure of the band buckle, be careful not to injure your fingernails when putting on and taking off the watch.
<Temperatures>
The watch may not function or stop running if exposed to temperatures outside the range of 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F). In addition, although the liquid crystal display may also become illegible outside this temperature range, it will return to normal when the watch is returned to normal temperatures.
• Correct water depth measurement values are not displayed at temperatures outside the range of +10°C to +40°C (50°F to 104°F).
• Data cannot be transferred outside the range of +10°C to +35°C (50°F to 95°F).
<Static Electricity>
Since the IC used in quartz watches is susceptible to static electricity, the display may become incorrect if the watch is subjected to intense static electricity like that generated by a television screen.
99
<Shocks>
Do not subject the watch to violent shocks such as that resulting from being dropped on the floor.
<Chemical Agents, Gases and Mercury>
Avoid using the watch in environments containing chemical agents and gases. If solvents such as thinner or benzine, as well as articles containing such substances (including gasoline, fingernail polish, cresol, bathroom cleaners and adhesives) become adhered to the watch, they can cause discoloration, deterioration and cracking. Use ample caution when handling chemicals. In addition, contact with mercury used in thermometers and so forth can cause the case and band to become discolored.
<Storage>
• When not using the watch for an extended period of time, carefully wipe off any perspiration, dirt or moisture from the watch and store in a location preferably free of high and low temperatures, high humidity.
