BATTERIES
The watch uses a 1 x CR2032 lithium battery, which has
already been installed. See below for battery warnings.
NOTE Heavy use of the backlight, altitude alarm and
sailing timer will reduce the battery service life
significantly.
If youneed toreplace the battery,wehighly recommend
that you contact the retailer or our customer service
department.
LOW BATTERY DESCRIPTION
ICON
The watch battery is low
- - Appears when the battery is too low
to operate the sensor. “- -” is shown
instead of temperature, altitude,
barometer and compass values. The
bar and line charts will also be frozen
To replace the watch battery:
1. Locate the battery compartment on the back of the
watch.
2. Usingacoin,asshownabove,twistthecompartment
lid counter-clockwise until it clicks out of place.
3. With your finger, remove the old battery.
4. Insert the new battery with the + side upwards.
5. Replace the battery compartment lid by twisting it
clockwise until it is firmly in place.
NOTE When you replace the batteries it is important to
re-calibratethe magnetic sensor and altitude orsealevel.

USING THE ALTIMETER-BAROMETER
ABOUT THE ALTIMETER-BAROMETER
The altimeter measures altitude in either metres or feet.
Thewatch is equipped with an intelligent barometer that
determines altitude by the built-in sensor with the
advanced Baro-compensation technology. The sensor
can also distinguish the differences between pressure
causedby the changes in physical altitudes andpressure
caused by weather conditions. This smart distinction
eliminates discrepancies and makes the altimeter
readingmoreaccuratethan most of the average devices
available on the market.

SET THE ALTITUDE
To set the altitude:
1. Press MODE to switch to
Altimeter-Barometer Mode.
2. Press and hold SET until the first
setting flashes.
3.
Press +or-to change the setting.
Holdto speed through the options.
Press SET to confirm the setting
and move on to the next one.
4. Repeat step 3 to change other
settings for this mode.
The order of the altitude settings is:
• Altitude unit - metres / feet
• Altitude height
To effectively set the altimeter you need to know the
correct altitude. To do this:
• Obtain a topographical map; find your location and
its related altitude reading.
OR
• Set the sea level pressure on your watch.
IMPORTANT
• This unit employs a semiconductor pressure sensor
that could beaffectedbytemperature change.While
takingthealtitudemeasurement, ensure that the unit
is not exposed to sudden temperature changes.
• It is recommended to calibrate the altitude or sea
level pressure regularly to maintain the accuracy of
the watch.
ALTITUDE BAR CHART
The altitude bar chart at the bottom of the display shows
thealtitudehistory.It consistsof 7 rows and 14 columns.
The latest reading is entered in the right hand column
and always at the height of the 4th row. Therefore, all
the other readings will adjust their position to reflect the
latest reading.
NOTE 1 row = 20m (20m = 65.6ft)
1 column =1 min
