About the backlight

When you switch the backlight function on, the backlight of the watch fl ashes whenever alarm (page E-10), countdown timer or hourly time signal is sounding. - Pressing Ⓐ in any mode illuminates the display, regardless of the backlight's on/off setting.

- The backlight of this watch employs an electro-luminescent (EL) light, which loses its illuminating power after very long term use.

Frequent use of the backlight shortens the battery life.

The watch will emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is caused by a transistor that vibrates when the EL panel lights up. It does not indicate malfunction of the watch.

The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.

The backlight automatically stops illuminating whenever an alarm sounds.

To switch the backlight function on and off

In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down (E) for about two seconds to switch the backlight function on and off. When you switch the backlight function on, an indicator appears on the display as shown.

Backlight function on indicator

The backlight function indicator remains on the display in all modes until you switch • the backlight function off.
