Basic Operations
This section provides an overview of the watch
and explains operations that are common to
all modes.
Important!
●This watch is not a special-purpose
measuring instrument.
Measurement function readings are
intended for general reference only.
●Whenever using the Digital
Compass of this watch for serious
trekking, mountain climbing, or other
activities, be sure to always take
along another compass to confirm
readings. If the readings produced
by the Digital Compass of this watch
are different from those of the other
compass, perform bidirectional
calibration of the Digital Compass to
ensure better accuracy.
ーCompass readings and
calibration will not be possible if
the watch is in the vicinity of a
permanent magnet (magnetic
accessory, etc.), metal objects,
high-voltage wires, aerial wires, or
electrical household appliances
(TV, computer, cellphone, etc.)
lDigital Compass
●The watch’s Altimeter Mode
calculates and displays relative
altitude based on barometric
pressure readings produced by its
pressure sensor. Because of this,
altitude values displayed by the
watch may be different from your
actual elevation and/or sea level
elevation indicated for the area
where you are located. Regular
calibration in accordance with the
local altitude (elevation) indications
is recommended.
lAltitude Measurement
Note
●In this manual, the expression “time
signal” refers to a time calibration
signal. Time signals include time
information.
●Note that the watch illustrations in
this manual are intended for
reference only. The actual watch
may appear somewhat different
than depicted in the illustrations.

the relationship between map markings and
actual geographic contours. To set a map with
this watch, align north on the map with the
north indication of the watch. Once you set the
map, you can compare your bearing on the
map with your surroundings, which will help
you determine your current location and
destination.
●Note that map reading skills and experience
are required to determine your current
location and destination on a map.

If you want the watch to indicate true north
instead of magnetic north, you need to specify
the current magnetic declination direction
(east or west) and declination angle.
lMagnetic North and True North
●The magnetic declination angle value can
be set in 1° (degree) units only. Use a value
that is closest to the angle you want to set.
Example: For an angle of 7.4°, set 7°.
Example: For an angle of 7°.4' (7 degrees,
40 minutes), set 8°.
Note
●Magnetic declination angles (east or
west) and angle degree values for
specific locations can be found on
geographic maps, mountain
climbing maps, and other maps that
include contour lines.
1. Pull out the crown.
Crown
2. Press (B).
3. Rotate the crown to change the magnetic

Digital Compass Reading
Precautions
Location during Use
Taking readings near sources of strong
magnetism can cause reading error. Keep the
watch away from the following types of items.
Permanent magnets (magnetic accessories,
etc.), metal objects, high-voltage wires, aerial
wires, electrical household appliances (TVs,
computers, cellphones, etc.)
●Note that correct direction readings are not
possible indoors, especially inside of
reinforced concrete structures.
●Accurate direction readings are not possible
in motor vehicles, on boats, on aircraft, etc.
Storage Location
Exposure of the watch to magnetism can
affect the accuracy of digital compass
readings. Keep the watch away from the
following types of items.
Permanent magnets (magnetic accessories,
etc.), metal objects, electrical household
appliances (TVs, computers, cellphones, etc.)
Altitude Measurement
The watch takes altitude readings and
displays results based on air pressure
measurements taken by a built-in pressure
sensor.
Important!
●The altitude readings displayed by
the watch are relative values that are
calculated based on barometric
pressure measured by the watch’s
pressure sensor. This means that
barometric pressure changes due to
weather can cause altitude readings

Calibrating Altitude
Readings
To minimize the difference between locally
indicated and measured values, you should
update the reference altitude value before
setting off on and during treks or any other
activities where you take altitude readings.
You can find out the altitude at your current
location from signs, maps, on the Internet, etc.
While mountain climbing, it is highly
recommended that you check a map, local
altitude indications, or some other source for
your current location’s altitude and regularly
calibrate watch readings with the latest
information.
●Differences between actual altitude and
watch readings can be caused by the
factors below.
ーChanges in barometric pressure
ーChanges in temperature caused by
variations in barometric pressure and by
elevation
●Though altitude readings can be taken
without calibration, doing so may produce
readings that are very different from
indications by altitude markers, etc.
1. Pull out the crown.

When taking altitude readings, take the steps
below to keep the watch at as stable a
temperature as possible. Changes in
temperature can affect temperature readings.
●Take readings with the watch on your wrist.
●Take readings in an area where
temperature is stable.
Altitude Readings
●Do not use this watch while skydiving, hang
gliding, paragliding, gyrocopter flying, glider
flying, or engaged in other activities where
altitude changes suddenly.
●Altitude readings produced by this watch
are not intended for special-purpose or
industrial level use.
●In an aircraft, the watch measures the in-
cabin pressurized air pressure, so readings
will not match altitudes announced by the
crew.
Altitude Readings (Relative Altitude)
This watch uses International Standard
Atmosphere (ISA) relative altitude data
defined by the International Civil Aviation
Organization (ICAO). Barometric pressure
generally becomes lower as altitude
increases.
Correct measurement may not be possible
under the conditions below.
●During unstable atmospheric conditions
●During sudden temperature changes
