• The auto memory measurement indicator flashes on the display when you
start auto memory measurements. The indicator continues to flash
(indicating that measurements continue) even if you change modes.
• Auto memory measurement cuts off automatically whenever there are 49
sets of data stored in memory. The 50th set of data measured when you
stop the measurement operation in step 3 below is also stored in memory.
3. To stop measurements at any point, hold down D again until the watch
emits a short beep.
• A final measurement is taken when you switch auto memory measurement
off, and that data is also stored into memory. Such data is indicated by

during the recall operation.

• Button operation becomes impossible during the 4 or 5 seconds that it
takes to complete a measurement. Normal operation will return once the
operation is finished.

Setting a Reference Altitude

After you set a reference altitude, the watch automatically calculates the
difference between the current altitude and your preset value. The altitude
measurements produced by this watch are subject to error caused by changes
in air pressure. Because of this, we recommend that you set the reference
altitude during your climb whenever one is available.

operations change the reading in increments of 20 feet.
• You can set the reference altitude within the range of –6000 m to 6000 m
(–19680 feet to 19680 feet).

About the Altitude Alarm

The altitude alarm sounds for about five seconds whenever the current
altitude matches a preset value. You can press any button to stop the alarm
after it starts to sound. Note that the altitude alarm sounds only while the
watch is in the Altimeter Mode.
Example:
If you set the altitude alarm at 130 meters, it will sound when you pass the
130-meter mark on your way up and on your way back down.
To set the altitude alarm
1. In the Altimeter Mode, hold down A until the display clears. After 4 or 5
seconds, either

to flash. The data flashes because it is selected .

The Target Altitude Graph appears in the

The start point differs according to what type of memory measurement
procedure you are using. With auto memory measurements (AUTO
shown on the display), the start point is the first altitude measured. With
manual memory measurements (MANUAL
start point is 0 m (0 ft).
• The target altitude graph is not shown on the display if the altitude alarm is
off.
Example:
• The display below would appear at a current altitude of 160 m when you are
using manual memory measurement with a target altitude setting of 200 m.
Eight points on the graph are darkened because you are 8/10 of the way to
your target.
• The display below would appear at a current altitude of 160 m when you are
using auto memory measurement with a target altitude setting of 200 m and
a starting point of 100 m. Six points on the graph are darkened because you
are 6/10 of the way to your target.
