Care and maintenance

We recommend that you clean your watch regularly using a soft cloth and lukewarm water. After bathing in salt water, rinse your watch with fresh water and leave it to dry completely. Avoid exposing your watch to excessive variations in temperature or humidity, to strong sunlight or strong magnetic fields.

• Incorrect operation of the pushers = different alarm from the normal beep

• No operation for 30 seconds = automatic deactivation of the glass

• No operation for 3 seconds in setting mode = exit setting mode

Important notes

For the best reading of the temperature, remove the watch from your wrist and wait for approximately 15 to 30 minutes. For more information see the explanation of the thermometer on page 22.

For correct use of the altimeter, adjust it as often as possible. For more information see the explanation of the altimeter on page 20.

The barometer function (METEO) indicates a trend. Hands superposed to the left of midday = bad weather, at midday = stable weather, to the right of midday = good weather. For more information, see the explanation of the barometer function on page 16.

Your watch is waterproof to 30 m. However, no function can be operated if the glass is in contact with a liquid.

General information on use

• Activate the glass by pressing

• When the glass is activated, a flashing bar will appear on the digital display

• Select a function by touching the corresponding area on the glass

• Brief presses on the pushers = step by step movement of the hands or incrementation (decrementation) on the digital display

• Long presses on the pushers = continuous movement or incrementation (decrementation)

Congratulations

Hamilton is happy that you have chosen a timepiece from our prestigious collection. Your Khaki Field Multi-Touch watch incorporates state-of-the-art technology.

Miscellaneous information

The program on your watch takes into consideration variations in atmospheric pressure over the previous 8 hours to calculate the trend to be displayed, ensuring greater reliability and precision than a "mechanical" barometer which only displays an instantaneous trend.

Furthermore, the variation in pressure caused by a rapid change in altitude is detected by the program and compensated for automatically. It therefore has no influence on the barometric trend.

Unit conversion: 1 hectoPascal [hPa] = 1 millibar [mb]

Technical data

Measuring range: 300 hPa to 1100 hPa Accuracy: ± 3 hPa Resolution: 1 hPa

The digital display gives the value of absolute atmospheric pressure in hectoPascals [hPa].

Barometers and meteorological maps indicate the value of pressure respect to the sea level.

METEO

Barometer function, indication of the meteorological trend

Description of the function

In this mode, your watch is transformed into a barometer. The hands superpose to indicate the meteorological trend.

Explanations

Changes in weather are linked to variations in atmospheric pressure. The watch measures these variations in pressure and indicates the meteorological trend.

When atmospheric pressure increases, the sky clears. The hands move to the right. This is called a "high pressure" zone or "anticyclone" (A).

When atmospheric pressure decreases, the sky clouds over. The hands move to the left. The is called a "low pressure" zone or "depression" (D).

The change in pressure is measured and displayed using the hands which can assume the following 7 positions depending on the meteorological trend:

-6' : Major drop in pressure, rapid deterioration

-4' : Moderate drop in pressure, probable deterioration

-2' : Minor drop in pressure, probable slight deterioration 12h : No notable meteorological change +2' :

Minor increase in pressure, probable slight improvement +4' : Moderate increase in pressure, probable improvement +6' : Major increase in pressure, rapid improvement

COMPASS

Compass, indication of geographical North

Description of the function

In COMPASS mode, your watch indicates the geographical north pole, taking the magnetic deviation into consideration.

Explanations

The vertical lines (meridians) on a globe converge toward the geographical north pole (Ng) and indicate its direction.

The pointer on a conventional compass indicates the direction of the magnetic north pole (Nm).

The angle (α) between these two directions is called the magnetic deviation. The value of the magnetic deviation therefore depends on your position on the globe.

Furthermore, the magnetic north pole is constantly changing. The value of the magnetic deviation therefore also depends on the date.

When the correct value (depending on place and date) of the magnetic deviation is set (see the adjustment procedure on page 12), the minute hand on your watch displays the direction of the geographical North (Ng).

The values and dates of the magnetic deviation are displayed on topographical maps or can be calculated using special software.

Miscellaneous information

If you set the magnetic deviation to 0, your Khaki Field Multi-touch will display the magnetic North (Nm).

The COMPASS function, as any other compass, must not be used near a metal or magnetic object.

The watch is graded with the following values:

- 30˚ between a cardinal point (N,E,W,S) and the closest points.

It is very important that you hold the watch as horizontal as possible to obtain a true indication of North.

ALTIMETER

Indication of altitude in relation to sea level

Description of the function

In ALTIMETER mode, your watch is transformed into a barometric altimeter and displays the altitude in relation to the average sea level.

Explanations

Warning!

As pressure is used to calculate the altitude, the altimeter is sensitive to variations in atmospheric pressure as the weather changes. It is not uncommon to see differences in altitude of 100 m in one night. The value displayed may vary without your altitude actually changing.

Change in weather = variation in pressure = modification of altitude displayed

Thus it is necessary to "calibrate" the altimeter as often as possible.

P = pressure

500m

1000m

1500m

2000m

540 m

As this instrument is barometric, it calculates the altitude according to atmospheric pressure. As altitude increases, pressure decreases and vice versa. Therefore, the altimeter measures the difference in pressure and displays the altitude. It is therefore an ideal instrument for measuring ascents. (e. g. when hiking in the mountains).

Miscellaneous information

Note: "Calibrating" an altimeter means setting it to the actual altitude of a known point (see the setting procedure on page 14).

The values of actual altitudes can be found from various sources: signs, contour lines and benchmarks on maps.

Your watch compensates for temperature. The altitude displayed is therefore corrected automatically. The altimeter makes a measurement every 10 seconds.

Your altimeter will not show the variations in altitude in an aircraft as the cabin is pressurised (constant pressure).

Unit conversion: 1 meter [m] = 3.281 feet [ft] 1 foot [ft] = 0.305 meters [m]

Temperature display

Description of the function

In this mode, your watch is transformed into a THERMOMETER and displays the ambient temperature.

Miscellaneous information

The temperature may be displayed in degrees Celsius [˚C] or degrees Fahrenheit [˚F]. (see page 8 for the procedure for changing these units).

Conversion formulae:

Explanations

The temperature displayed is the temperature of the watch case. Its temperature is therefore influenced by your body temperature. Thus, the temperature displayed may be different from the ambient temperature.

To display the actual ambient temperature, the watch must be taken off for about 15 to 30 minutes so that it is no longer affected by your body temperature.

Verzorging en onderhoud

Wij adviseren u het horloge regelmatig te reinigen met een zachte, in wat lauw water gedrenkte doek. Na het zwemmen in zee, moet u het horloge met kraanwater afspoelen en goed laten drogen. Stel het horloge niet bloot aan sterke temperatuurs- of vochtigheidsvariaties, aan felle zonnestraling of aan sterke magnetische velden.

Belangrijke opmerkingen

Voor een optimale temperatuurmeting, haalt u het horloge van de pols en wacht u ongeveer 15 tot 30 minuten. Voor meer informatie, zie de uitleg van de thermometer op bladzijde 44.

Voor een goed gebruik van de hoogtemeter, ijkt u deze zo vaak als mogelijk is. Voor meer informatie, zie de uitleg van de hoogtemeter op bladzijde 42.

De functie METEO geeft een tendens aan. Wijzers boven elkaar links van 12 uur = slecht weer, 12 uur = stabiel weer, rechts van 12 uur = mooi weer. Voor meer informatie, zie de uitleg van de functie METEO op bladzijde 38.

Uw horloge is waterdicht tot 30 m. Als het glas in contact is met een vloeistof kan echter geen enkele functie worden geactiveerd.
