Dual Time.
About the backlight
In any mode, press
to illuminate the display for about two seconds.
The portion of the display illuminated by the backlight depends on the watch model.
With some models, smaller indicators may not be made visible by backlight illumina-
tion. Be especially careful when checking the Home Time and Dual Time indicators.
The backlight of the watch employs an electro-luminescent (EL) light, which loses
illuminating power after very long use.
The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under
direct sunlight.
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 backlight automatically stops illuminating whenever an alarm sounds.
