Viewing the Face in the Dark

The face of the watch can be illuminated for
viewing in the dark.
To illuminate the face manually
Pressing (L) turns on illumination.
Illumination will turn off automatically if an
alarm starts to sound.
Illumination will not turn on while a signal
receive operation is in progress. Also,
illumination may not turn on while a sensor
is taking a reading.
To illuminate the face when Auto Light
is enabled
If Auto Light is enabled, face illumination will
turn on automatically whenever the watch is
positioned at an angle of 40 degrees or more.
Important!
Auto Light may not operate properly
when the watch is at a horizontal angle
of 15 degrees or greater from
horizontal as shown in the illustration
below.
Electro-static charge or magnetism
can interfere with proper auto light
operation. If this happens, try lowering
your arm and then angle it towards
your face again.
When moving the watch you may note
a slight rattling sound. This is due to
operation of the auto light switch,
which determines the current
orientation of the watch. It does not
indicate malfunction.
