ABOUT THE BACKLIGHT
•Press to illuminate the display for about three seconds.
•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 emits an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This 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 turns off whenever an alarm sounds.

DAY COUNTER MODE
The Day Counter Mode lets you count the number of days from the Timekeeping
Mode’s current date to a specific target date.
There are ten day counters, each identified by a counter number. You can assign text
titles up to eight characters long to each of the 10 Day Counters. Whenever the date
specified by any one of the day counters matches the date of the Timekeeping Mode
(regardless of the day counter’s year setting), the DAYS indicator flashes on the
Timekeeping Mode. In the Day Counter Mode, the DAYS indicator flashes on the
screen of the particular day counter whose date matches the date of the Timekeep-
ing Mode.
The initial default date for all Day Counters is January 1, 2001.
The page number on the display when you exit the Day Counter Mode appears first
the next time you enter the Day Counter Mode.
