Due to the function displaying the best lap time and average lap time, it takes at least
three units of memory to store 1 time data. If you store data only in one channel,
you can use 100 units of memory per channel. If you use more than one channel,
the units of memory you can use will be less than 100 units of memory in total. For
example, if the measured time data are stored in one channel, 100 units of memory
can be used, but if data is divided and stored in 2 channels, 97 units of memory can
be used in total.

NOTE ON THE LIQUID CRYSTAL PANEL
The normal life expectancy for the liquid crystal panel of the watch is approxi-
mately 7 years. After that, it may decrease in contrast, becoming difficult to read.
Please contact the retailer from whom the watch was purchased to have the liquid
crystal panel replaced with a new one.
ILLUMINATING LIGHT (electroluminescent panel)
The electroluminescent panel for illumination of the display loses its luminance
as the battery voltage gets lowered. Also, its luminance level decreases gradually
with use.
After 120 hours of use, the luminance level decreases by about half. When the illu-
minating light becomes dim, replace the battery with a new one. If the illuminating
light remains dim after the battery is replaced, have the electroluminescent panel
replaced with a new one by the retailer from whom the watch was purchased. It
will be replaced at cost.
