About the Backlight
About the Auto Light Switch Function
When the auto light switch function is turned on, the backlight automatically turns on
for two seconds under the conditions described below. Avoid wearing the watch on
the inside of your wrist. Doing so causes the auto light switch to operate when not
needed, which shortens battery life.
Moving the watch to a position that is parallel to the ground and then tilting it
towards you approximately 40 degrees causes the backlight to illuminate.
