Note
The watch will automatically return to
●
the Timekeeping Mode if you do not
perform any operation in the Altimeter
Mode for about one hour while [5
SECONDS] is selected as the
measurement interval or for about 12
hours while [2 MINUTES] is selected.

Altitude Reading
Precautions

Effects of Temperature

When taking altitude readings, take the steps
below to keep the watch at as stable a
temperature as possible. Changes in
temperature can affect altitude readings.
Take readings with the watch on your wrist.
●
Take readings in an area where
●
temperature is stable.
Altitude Readings
Do not use this watch while skydiving, hang
●
gliding, paragliding, gyrocopter flying, glider
flying, or engaged in other activities where
altitude changes suddenly.
Altitude readings produced by this watch
●
are not intended for special-purpose or
industrial level use.
In an aircraft, the watch measures the in-
●
cabin pressurized air pressure, so readings
will not match altitudes announced by the
Altimeter Mode
crew.
Altitude Readings (Relative Altitude)
This watch uses International Standard
Atmosphere (ISA) relative altitude data
defined by the International Civil Aviation
Organization (ICAO). Barometric pressure
generally becomes lower as altitude
increases.
Correct measurement may not be possible
under the conditions below.
During unstable atmospheric conditions
●
During sudden temperature changes
●
After the watch has been subjected to
●
strong impact
Measured Altitude Value Adjustment
Using GPS Signal Data
If you perform a GPS signal receive operation
before you start running, the received
correction information will be used for
automatic correction of altitude measurement
values. Note, however, that this also may
result in some difference between the
measured value and the actual altitude.
Also note that the measured altitude value
adjustment operation using GPS signal data
may take a few minutes. The adjustment
operation may take even longer, depending
on your current environment. Regular manual
adjustment of the measured altitude value
using locally available information is
recommended. The watch will not use GPS
signal data to adjust measured altitude values
for one hour after you adjust the measured
altitude value manually.
