BACKLIGHT
The backlight uses an EL (electro-luminescent) panel that
causes the entire display to glow for easy reading in the
dark. The watch's auto light switch automatically turns on
the backlight when you angle the watch towards your
face.
The auto light switch must be turned on (indicated by
the auto light switch on indicator) for it to operate.
See "Backlight Precautions" for other important
information about using the backlight.

To turn on the backlight manually
In any mode, press L to illuminate the display for about one second.
The above operation turns on the backlight regardless of the current auto light
switch setting.
About the Auto Light Switch
Turning on the auto light switch causes the backlight to turn on for about one second,
whenever you position your wrist as described below in any mode.
Be sure to wear the watch on the outside of your left wrist while using the auto light
switch.
Moving the watch to a position that is parallel to the ground and then tilting it
towards you more than 40 degrees causes the backlight to turn on.
Parallel to ground
Warning!
Always make sure you are in a safe place whenever you are reading the
display of the watch using the auto light switch. Be especially careful when
running or engaged in any other activity that can result in accident or injury.
Also take care that sudden illumination by the auto light switch does not
surprise or distract others around you.
When you are wearing the watch, make sure that its auto light switch is turned
off before riding on a bicycle or operating a motorcycle or any other motor
vehicle. Sudden and unintended operation of the auto light switch can create
a distraction, which can result in a traffic accident and serious personal injury.
To turn the auto light switch on and off
In any mode, hold down L for about two seconds to toggle the auto light switch on
(
displayed) or off (
not displayed).
The auto light switch on indicator (

light switch is turned on.
