  • Page 4: Quick Start

    Quick start For a quick start, take a few minutes to read and master the instructions on the card provided with the watch.
  • Page 5: Basic Operation

    Basic operation The watch responds to movement and time is only displayed when it detects that your wrist has been rotated to place the watch in front of you. The hours are displayed on the top cursor and minutes on the bottom cursor.
  • Page 6: Setting The Watch

    Setting the watch The watch can only be set by the light from your smartphone or computer display. Programming device must be a recent smartphone or LCD screen (some screen calibration/adjustment may be required and must be web- enabled. Because of this, the watch can support advanced calendar features like moon phases and automatic date change (including leap-year calculation).
  • Page 7 1) Set your programming device to maximum brightness. 2) Put the watch is “programming mode”. At any moment during the procedure below you can put the watch downward to turn off the display and start over. 2.1) Display time by putting the watch at 45º in front of you. The cursor will then move to current time.
  • Page 8 at the moment. 2.4) Then single-tap again: bottom cursor goes to 25/moon phase icon and blinks slowly. Don’t pay attention to the top cursor at the moment. 2.5) Then single-tap again: bottom cursor goes to 35/ chronometer icon and blinks rapidly. Don’t pay attention to the top cursor at the moment.
  • Page 9 sensor on the back of the watch (on the 0-------1 scale) and the bottom cursor is static at 55/wrench. The watch remains in the state until programming is completed or until it times out. Time out occurs if no valid data has been sent to the watch after two minutes, at which point the top and bottom cursor will blink multiple times at 0 (or 12h00).
  • Page 10 corresponds to the five white bars on top of the orange progress bar). Depending on the quality of the light signal received, it may take more than one attempt. If using a programming device that has a touchscreen, make sure the watch contact with the touchscreen is not interpreted as a user input and does not disturb the programming sequence.
  • Page 11: Advanced Features

    Advanced features When you watch time (watch at 45º in front of you), a single tap let you in the “top advanced features” (the row of text next the little “TAP>”). A double-tap let you in the “bottom advanced features” (the row of icons next to the little “TAP- TAP”).
  • Page 12 icon. Double-tap to activate the flashlight, then single-tap to change intensity. Double-tap again to turn it off. “Bottom” advanced features You move from one feature to another with single tap within the bottom advanced features, when you can “tweak” something with double-tap, the bottom cursor will blink faster.
  • Page 13 4) Chronometer: Double-tap starts it. Double-tap stops it. Single-tap restarts it when stopped. Put the watch downward when chronometer is stopped to exit chronometer mode. When chronometer is running, you can put the watch down and it won’t turn off the display. For less than 60 secs, tens of seconds are on the bottom cursor and units of seconds on top cursor (e.g.: 42s = 40 (bottom) + 2 (top)).
  • Page 14: Travel Mode

    Travel mode The travel mode is not based on GMT or UTC time zones, you simply need set the time shifts (offsets) you’ll be using during your traveling. Therefore you set your “home” time, the “west” (minus) offset and “east” (plus) offset that you plan to use (it’s most likely that you’ll be traveling in only one destination/direction and therefore use only one of the two offsets).
  • Page 15 The bottom cursor goes to 5/calendar icon, then signle- tap to move the blinking cursor to the 15/travel mode icon (travel mode). At this point the cursor blinks even faster to let you know you can double-tap again to tweak this feature (single-tap would move to next advanced feature…moon phases).
  • Page 16 If you did not set the offsets at home prior to your trip and you want to do so at your destination, you have two options: A) Leave the travel mode at “home” and set the watch using a device that matches the local time at your current destination.
  • Page 17: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting Problem: Watch does not light anymore. Solution: Change the battery by removing the screws on the side door with a coin. The thickest coin that fits the screw head is the best choice (Canada: 25¢; U.S.A.: 1¢ or 25¢; U.K.: 1p; Euro: 1¢, 2¢ or 5¢; Rest of the world: 1.75 mm thickness or less).
  • Page 18 Problem/solution combination for failure could be: Problem: Programming device’s screen is too dim. Solution: Set brightness to maximum. Problem: Programming device’s screen contrast too low. Solution: set contrast to maximum…usually only PC/Mac have this sort of setting (smartphones don’t). Problem: Programming device is too slow and cannot keep up with required timing.
  • Page 19 device flat on a table with the watch on top of it. Problem: Watch did not received a full attempt from programming device. Solution: Make sure you wait at least one full attempt, i.e.: the orange progress bar moves from 0 to 100%. You have 5 attempts.
  • Page 21 After many fails attempt or if you have determined that the light signal quality is poor, move to a different programming device.
