TO LOCK AND UNLOCK THE TOUCH SENSORS:
There are 4 touch sensors around the lens of
the watch (S1, S2, S3 and S4). To unlock the
sensors, press and hold S4 sensor for approxi-
mately 1 second, then slide on the lens from S4
sensor to S2 sensor in clockwise direction. The
touch sensor indicator will be displayed to
indicate the touch sensors are unlocked.
When no sensors are pressed for approxi-
mately 10 seconds, the touch sensor lock will
automatically be activated (except in CHRO-
NOGRAPH mode and TIMER mode when the
chronograph or timer is in use) and the touch
sensors will be locked.
NOTE: You may experience an unstable or
delayed response if the lens of the watch is
moist. To ensure smooth operation, please
wipe the lens dry with a soft cloth and operate
only with dry hands.
DISPLAY MODES:
The watch has seven display modes: NORMAL
TIME (TIME), WORLD TIME (WLD), COMPASS
(COMP), CHRONOGRAPH (CHR), RECALL
(RCL), TIMER (TMR) and ALARM (ALM).
To change from one display mode to another,
press S3 sensor once.
NOTE: In any setting mode, when there is no
sensor pressed for approximately 60 seconds,
the watch will automatically save the entered
data and exit the setting procedure.
NOTE: In any setting mode, press S1 sensor for
increasing the designated value. Press S2 sen-
sor for decreasing the designated value,
TO SET THE TIME AND CALENDAR:

You must apply DST to WORLD TIME cities
separately.
11. Press S3 sensor, the ''BEEP" setting
will blink. The ''BEEP" option will cause
the watch to beep anytime a sensor is
pressed. Press S1 or S2 sensor to toggle

mately 2 seconds to confirm.
S2
NOTE: The day (of the week) is automatically
set in accordance with the date. The date can
be set within the range of 1 January 2012 to 31
December 2099.
NOTE: The selected hour format will apply
to both NORMAL TIME mode and WORLD
TIME mode.
TO SELECT AND DISPLAY THE TIME OF
WORLD TIME CITY IN WORLD TIME MODE:
1. Press S3 sensor to select WORLD TIME
mode.
2. To make the world time city selection,
press S1 or S2 sensor to cycle forward or
backward through the 32 preset cities / time
zones.
3. Press and hold S1 sensor for more than
2 seconds to toggle between DST and
Standard Time. The DST indicator will be
displayed when Daylight Savings Time is
displayed.
NOTE: When you have applied DST for
individual cities / time zones, the respective
time will be adjusted forward by 1 hour. Please
make sure you have correctly applied DST for
the selected local city and world time cities
with reference to information available on the
Internet, or else the watch will not be able
to display the time of individual cities / time
zones properly.
TO USE THE COMPASS:
Press S3 sensor to select COMPASS mode. The
current time will be displayed for approximately
0.5 second, then the relative compass point and
angular bearing will be displayed.
This moving pointer represents the direction
of North (N).
NOTE: If there is no sensor pressed for approx-
imately 60 seconds, the compass sensor will
be deactivated for power saving and the watch
will display only the NORMAL TIME. Press S1
sensor to re-activate the compass sensor.
NOTE: If the compass does not seem to work
well, for example: when it displays the wrong
compass direction or it displays "DIST" (distort)
on the screen, then you have to calibrate the
compass. You should also calibrate it after
replacing the battery. If your watch has been
exposed to strong electromagnetic fields, such
as electric lines, magnets or loudspeakers,
then you have to calibrate it again. Please also
calibrate the compass before using it for the
first time and before a long trip.
NOTE: Because of the difference between
true North and magnetic North, you have
to compensate it by adjusting the compass
declination. The declination angle for your local
area may be found below:

counting and then press and hold S2 sensor
for approximately 3 seconds.
For the measurement of split time:
In CHRONOGRAPH mode,
