2. RACE TIMER MOUNTING
The Clear Start Timer can be worn on the wrist like a watch or
mounted on the mast, boom or deck. For mounting on the boat, the
wrist strap should be removed and the housing fixed to the boat
with M4 or 5/32" fasteners through the two holes provided. Care
should be taken in selecting and fitting fasteners correctly, so that
they do not protrude and prevent the Timer from snapping into the
housing fully.The Timer can be snapped into the housing for racing
and can be easily removed afterward for transport/security.
Make sure the Timer is placed fully into the housing and the
snap fit is secured completely before use.
3. BACKLIGHT & SOUND SIGNALS

[SET ]. The backlight will stay on for 4 seconds.
Frequent use of the backlight will shorten battery life. To extend
the battery life, the Backlight function can be switched off.
When the Sound Signal function is switched on, in Racing mode
various sound signals will be given at pre-programed intervals and
critical points in the countdown – see section 7 for details.
