If the display of the watch is blank...
If the SLEEP indicator is on the display (either
flashing or steady), it means that the display is
blank because the watch's Power Saving function
has shut it to conserve power. Power Saving
automatically turns off the display and puts the
watch into a sleep state whenever your watch is
left in an area where it is dark for a certain
period.
• The initial factory default setting is Power Saving on.
• The watch recovers from the sleep state if you move it to a well-lit area
you press any button, or if you angle the watch towards your face for
reading.
It can take up to five seconds for the display to turn on.
