About the memory...
Each memory item (auto or manual) stored by the watch consists of the
current altitude, plus the date, time, and temperature. Data is stored in the
same sequence that it is input.
Memory can hold a total of 50 sets of data, which is enough to store 12 hours
and 15 minutes of auto memory data (if you do not take any manual readings
during that time).
Important!
Further auto or manual memory measurements
become impossible whenever memory is full.
The message on the display indicates
FULL
that memory is full. Always check the amount of
memory remaining before starting memory
measurements, and delete data if necessary.
Selecting Auto or Manual Memory Measurement
Use the following procedure to switch between auto or manual memory
measurement. Note that you cannot perform this operation while a preset auto
memory measurement is already in progress.
1. In the Altimeter Mode, hold down A until the display clears. After 4 or 5
seconds, either OFF or the current reference altitude value (if set) will start
to flash. The data flashes because it is selected .
2. Press C to change the selection in the following sequence.

• Auto memory measurement cuts off automatically whenever there are 49
sets of data stored in memory. The 50th set of data measured when you
stop the measurement operation in step 3 below is also stored in memory.
3. To stop measurements at any point, hold down D again until the watch
emits a short beep.
• A final measurement is taken when you switch auto memory measurement
off, and that data is also stored into memory. Such data is indicated by

Setting a Reference Altitude
After you set a reference altitude, the watch automatically calculates the
difference between the current altitude and your preset value. The altitude
measurements produced by this watch are subject to error caused by changes
in air pressure. Because of this, we recommend that you set the reference
altitude during your climb whenever one is available.

About the Altitude Alarm
The altitude alarm sounds for about five seconds whenever the current
altitude matches a preset value. You can press any button to stop the alarm
after it starts to sound. Note that the altitude alarm sounds only while the
watch is in the Altimeter Mode.
Example:
If you set the altitude alarm at 130 meters, it will sound when you pass the
130-meter mark on your way up and on your way back down.
