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

on, the alarm tone will not start to sound until the backlight turns off.

data.

INPUTTING TEXT
The following describes how to input text in the Telememo Mode and Alarm Mode. It
also provides details of how text is produced in the text area of the display.
How to input characters
1. When the cursor is blinking in the text area,
use E and D to scroll through the available
letters, numbers and symbols, in the following
sequence.
· Holding down either button scrolls through at
high speed.
2. When the character you want at the cursor position is shown, press B to move the
cursor to the right.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until your text is complete.
· The text area in the Telememo Mode can hold up to eight characters. When the
cursor is located at the eighth space of the text area in this mode, moving the
cursor to the right causes it to jump down to the first digit in the number area. When
the cursor is at the 12th digit of the number area, moving it to the right causes it to
jump back up to the first character of the text area.
· You can input only numbers and spaces in the number area. Each press of E or D
changes the input at the current cursor location in the following sequence:
· If you do not perform any button operation for about two or three minutes while the
cursor is on the display, the watch automatically returns to the normal data display
(the cursor disappears).
How the text display scrolls
The text area of the display can show only six characters at the time, so longer text
scrolls continuously from right to left.
