How the Exercise Stopwatch Works
There are two ways you can use the exercise stopwatch: to measure elapsed time like
a standard stopwatch (see "To measure times with the stopwatch"), and to keep track
of the number of calories you burn or the distance you cover while jogging or running.
In order to use the exercise stopwatch to keep track of calories and distance, you
must first perform the steps listed below.
1. Set your basic data. See "Inputting Basic Data".
2. Configure the pacer signal. See "About the Pacer Signal".

Note
• In order to obtain accurate calorie and distance calculations, you must set accurate
basic data and keep your exercise pace in accordance with the pacer signal emitted
by the watch.
• Whenever you clear the stopwatch to all zeros, all exercise stopwatch data (elapsed
time, distance, calories burned, recording date) is recorded automatically in the
watch's memory. See "Recall Mode" for more information.
• The unit of measurement used for the distance calculation depends on the unit you
select for your stride length as shown in the table below. See "To input your basic
data" for more information.

About the Pacer Signal
The pacer signal of this watch beeps in accordance with a pacer value (rate) set by
you. You can use the pacer signal to maintain a constant pace while jogging or
running. You can also turn off the pacer signal when you do not want to use it.
• The pacer value you set specifies the number of beeps per minute.
• Turning on the pacer signal causes the watch to beep at the rate specified by the
pacer value.
• You can disable the pacer function by setting a pacer value of xxx. While the
pacer value is set to xxx, the watch does not calculate calories burned and
distance covered, so both values are indicated as zero on the display.
