NOTES: You can use only one of the two Chronograph
functions – ADD or SPLIT – at a time; they cannot be
used simultaneously. To switch to the other mode, you
must first stop the chronograph and reset the counter
display to zero. However you can select and use the
other timepiece functions while the chronograph is
running.
Choosing a mode:
In ADD Mode, you can start and stop the counter
to measure the combined time of a series of shorter
events, for example the actual playing time of a
football game, where play is repeatedly interrupted.
Each time you stop the counter, the timing is halted: it
does not continue to track elapsed time.
In SPLIT Mode, you can take intermediate time
readings as a continuing event, a race for example,
progresses. The chronograph will continue to track the
elapsed time in the background while the intermediate
time reading is displayed. When the crown is pushed
again, the counter display will change to reflect the
ongoing elapsed time.
Reading the display:
When the chronograph is running in either mode
– ADD or SPLIT– the counter display will show the
following information:
Timed period < 1 minute:
SP or Ad Mode – seconds + hundredths.
(Ex: "Ad 05 58")
Timed period > 1 minute and < 1 hour:
SP or Ad Mode – Ad and minutes + seconds
+ hundredths appear alternately.
(Ex: "Ad" and "05 50 36" alternate)
Timed period > 1 hour and < 48 hours:
SP or Ad Mode – minutes – seconds –
hundredths appear alternately.

USING THE ALARM
Setting the alarm:

2. Pull crown out to position 2: The numerals indicating

the crown.
