How to use the stopwatch

The 1/100-second and 1/10-second hands move for 1 minute after starting, and remain at the 12 o’clock position thereafter.
When the buttons are operated to stop the stopwatch or to measure a split time, the stopwatch seconds hand displays the measured time from the restart.
If the stopwatch is restarted or a split time measurement is released, the hands move again for 1 minute.

Pressing Button A even during stopwatch operation will toggle to “time display.”
Stopwatch measurement continues even during time display. However, split time measurements will be released.

If the energy is depleted while the stopwatch is operating, the measurement may be reset.

When the stopwatch hands (1/100-second, 1/10-second, second) point to the 6 o’clock position, the energy is depleted, and the stopwatch will not operate. Charge the stopwatch before use.
