ページを印刷するThere are two standard methods of expressing altitude: Absolute altitude and
relative altitude. Absolute altitude expresses an absolute height above sea
level. Relative altitude expresses the difference between the height of two
different places.
Height of building 130 m
(Relative altitude)
Barometer
Barometric pressure indicates changes in the atmosphere, and by monitoring
these changes you can predict the weather with reasonable accuracy. Rising
barometric pressure indicates good weather, while falling pressure indicates
deteriorating weather conditions.
The barometric pressures that you see in the newspaper and on the TV
weather report are measurements corrected to values measured at 0 m sea
level.

BAND CLIP
One-Piece Cloth Band and Two-Piece Cloth Band
To fasten the two-piece band on your wrist
1. Wrap the wide inner band around your wrist,
pressing the fasteners on the bands together to
secure it.
• Band fasteners can separate when wet.
2. Wrap the narrow outer band around your wrist.
Grasping the buckle between your thumb and
middle finger, insert the band into the buckle while
pressing down the top of the band with your
forefinger.
• The buckle locks with a snap when fastened.
• Actual buckle shape depends on watch model.
To adjust the length of the two-piece band
1. Slide the buckle on the band to adjust the band
length.
2. Pass the band around the outside of the buckle.
3. Double the band back around the inside of the
buckle and then pull on the end to tighten.
Using the Band Clip
Be sure to attach the band clip to the watch and then attach the watch to your belt
whenever using the Trekking Counter. Failure to attach the Trekking Counter
correctly to your belt can produce poor measurement accuracy.
To attach the band clip
1. Remove the band from the watch.
• If your watch was a one-piece band with a
fixed buckle, pull the band to remove it from
the watch.
• If your watch has a two-piece band with
removable buckle, remove the buckle from the
outer band and then slide the band from the
watch.
2. Insert the band clip into the attachment at the
bottom (6 o'clock position) of the watch,
double it back, and fasten the snaps to
secure it in place.
3. Attach the band clip to your belt.
Trekking Counter Precautions
• Be sure to turn off the Trekking Counter when: taking part in any activity
involving jumping, bending, stretching, etc.; resting; riding a bicycle, train,
bus, or any other vehicle that vibrates.
• Any of the following can cause measurements to lose accuracy: walking on
loose ground, up or down steep slopes; running; shuffling your feet; uneven
strides; walking in sandals, shower shoes, or similar footwear; walking up or
down stairs.
• Measurements may become inaccurate or even fail entirely if the watch is
exposed to strong magnetic force.
• Always be sure to fasten the band clip to the bottom (6 o'clock position) of
the watch, and not to the top (12 o'clock position).
• Take care to avoid dropping the watch while walking.
• When using the Trekking Counter, make sure the watch is not resting
against your clothing or waist pack. If the watch is not hanging loosely, the
Trekking Counter will not be able to count your steps correctly.
• When walking up stairs or performing other activities that requires raising of
the leg, measurement accuracy can be affected by the watch bumping
against or riding on your leg. In such a case, try to position the band clip so
it hangs naturally, away from your leg.
• Wear the band clip so it is located in front of your body. This helps to make
sure the watch and band clip do not become accidentally caught on
something and pulled off your belt.
