(3)How to correct altitude
About correction of altitude
The altimeter of this product calculates based on the atmospheric pressure. Some errors
may occur by change in atmospheric pressure and temperature change due to atmo-
sphere and diff erence in elevation. For this reason, make adjustments of altitude at points
where the correct altitude is known such as a starting point of a trail or during a climb.
Information on altitude can also be searched on a map or through the Internet.
① P ress and hold Button Ⓑ to switch to the altitude correction (ADJ) mode. At this time,
the altitude indication blinks.
② P ress Button Ⓔ or Button Ⓕ to correct the altitude.

When the unit is set to [m] (The value can be set in 1-m increments.)
・ P ress Button Ⓔ to increase the value by one, and press Button Ⓕ to decrease the value by one.
・Press and hold Button Ⓔ or Button Ⓕ to quickly increase or decrease the value by
When the unit is set to [ft] (The value can be set in 5-ft increments.)
・ P ress Button Ⓔ to increase the value by fi ve, and press Button Ⓕ to decrease the value by fi ve.
・Long press the Button Ⓔ or Button Ⓕ to quickly increase or decrease the value by 50 feet.
③ Press Button Ⓑ to return to the altitude mode.

(6)How to start data recording
・ P ress Button Ⓕ in altimeter mode. "HOLd" appears on the display. Hold it down that
way for approximately 3 seconds to enter the REC ON mode. The "REC" mark blinks.
・Altitude is measured every 10 seconds even in the REC ON mode. The measurement automatically stops after 24 hours.
・ A ltitude can be corrected even in the REC ON mode. → Page 128
※ Maximum 10 times of mountaineering data, of which one time is 24 hours, can be recorded.

【CAUTION】 E ven if altitude is corrected during REC ON, there is no infl uence on the re-
corded values of average climbing speed, accumulated altitude. Minus cor-
rection of a once measured maximum altitude and plus correction of a once
measured minimum altitude are not refl ected in an altitude recorded value.
【CAUTION】 W hen you move by ropeway or automobile, etc., it is recommended to set to
REC OFF.Even when REC ON is set, the data may not be refl ected in average
climbing speed, accumulated altitude when a certain speed is exceeded.

(4)About climbing speed
・ C limbing speed represents the diff erence in altitude by moving per one hour in units of
m/h.
・ T he immediate preceding ascending altitude or descending altitude is converted into
amount of change in altitude per one hour.
・ T he indication is updated every 10 seconds.
・ I t is displayed at the top row of the altimeter display.
※ Why is climbing speed required?
I t is extremely important to know your pace during climbing.
C onfi rmation of climbing speed is an important index to estimate whether it is possible to climb
up to a target point within a scheduled time.
I n general, the time required to complete a trail is based on climbing speed of 300 m/h as a
standard, however, climbing speed widely varies depending on mountain profi le, weather, age,
body strength and experience.
K nowing your average climbing speed is helpful to calculate the time required to complete the
route. Make sure to set up a reasonable and safe plans for mountain climbing.
(5)How to measure altitude again
・ A ltitude is normally measured every 10 seconds in altimeter mode.
When you want to immediately measure the altitude again, press
Button Ⓕ
.
・ A ltitude measurement automatically stops after 12 hours have
elapsed since measurement starts, however, you can restart the alti-
tude measurement by pressing Button Ⓕ
(7)How to end data recording
・ P
ress and hold Button Ⓕ
. "HOLd" appears on the display. Hold it down that way for ap-
proximately 3 seconds to enter the REC OFF mode. The "REC" mark turns off .
・ W hen 24 hours have elapsed in the REC ON mode, the mode automatically changes to the
REC OFF mode and measurement of altitude stops. A stop sound beeps at this time. When
Button Ⓕ is pressed in this state, measurement of altitude is restarted in the REC OFF mode.
・ O nce the watch enters the REC OFF mode, the preceding data are recorded. When the
watch enters the REC ON mode again, new data are recorded.
※ T he mountaineering records are automatically sent to the application and stored when synchroniza-
tion of setting except for automatic synchronization is performed.
