Pressing LIGHT activates the backlight.

By default, the backlight turns on for a few seconds and turns off automatically.

There are four backlight modes:

  • Normal: The backlight turns on for a few seconds when you press LIGHT and when the alarm clock sounds. This is the default setting.
  • Off: The backlight is not switched on by pressing a button or when the alarm clock sounds.
  • Night: The backlight turns on for a few seconds when you press any button and when the alarm clock sounds.
  • Toggle: The backlight turns on when you press LIGHT and stays on until you press LIGHT again.

You can change the general backlight setting in the watch settings under GENERAL » Tones/display » Backlight.

You can adjust the backlight brightness (in percent), either in the watch settings under Tones/display » Backlight.

TIP:

When the BACK LAP and START buttons are locked, you can still activate the backlight by pressing LIGHT.
