GENERAL GUIDE

Caution
• 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 backligfht shortens the battery life.
• The watch emits an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is because the EL light vibrates slightly when lit. It does not indicate malfunction of the watch.
