BACKLIGHT
The backlight uses an EL (electro-lumines-
cent) panel that causes the entire display to
glow for easy reading in the dark. The watch's
auto light switch automatically turns on the
backlight when you angle the watch towards
your face.
The auto light switch must be turned on
(indicated by the auto light switch on
indicator) for it to operate.
The measurement functions built into this watch are not intended for
taking measurements that require professional or industrial precision.
Values produced by this watch should be considered as reasonable
representations only.
When engaging in mountain climbing or other activities in which losing
your way can create a dangerous or life-threatening situation, always be
sure to use a second compass to confirm direction readings.
