PRECAUTIONS ON USING THE WATCH WITH THE MAP METER/MILE MARKER
FUNCTION
● When measuring the distance, trace the route on the map slowly and securely with
the driving wheel, taking care not to apply undue force onto the driving wheel.
However, if you press the driving wheel down onto the map too lightly, the wheel
may slip off from the route.
● Do not use the map meter/mile marker function in sandy or dusty places.
● Your watch is designed to withstand up to 20 bar, however, do not use the map
meter/mile marker function in water, as this may damage the driving wheel. When
wearing the watch in water, therefore, make sure that the driving wheel is securely
locked.
● In order to prevent putting a burden on the stem, keep the driving wheel locked while
wearing the watch in normal use.
● The accuracy of indication of distance obtained by the map meter/mile marker
function may be affected by the conditions where the measurement is made.
Therefore, the indication should only be used as an approximate guide.
● When handling the watch, exercise caution with the serrated edge of the driving
wheel, which is sharp and could potentially cause injuries. In order to prevent
potential injury from the serrated edge of the driving wheel, keep the driving wheel
locked while wearing the watch during normal use.
