Important!

Auto Light may not operate properly when the watch is at a horizontal angle of 15 degrees or greater from horizontal as shown in the illustration below.

Light_b

Electro-static charge or magnetism can interfere with proper auto light operation. If this happens, try lowering your arm and then angle it towards your face again.

When moving the watch you may note a slight rattling sound. This is due to operation of the auto light switch, which determines the current orientation of the watch. It does not indicate malfunction.

Frequent use of illumination will run down the battery.

Certain positions during diving may interfere with Auto Light operation.

Auto Light is disabled when any one of the conditions below exists.
