  • Modh ùine: Displays the current time (12 or 24-hour format).
  • Modh Stopwatch: For timing events, including lap/split functions.
  • Humidity/Temperature/Heat Index Mode: Shows environmental readings.
  • Modh rabhaidh: For setting and activating the programmable alarm.

6.2. A 'suidheachadh an Uair agus Ceann-latha

  1. Ann am Modh Ùine, brùth is cum sìos am putan MODE button until the time digits begin to flash.
  2. Cleachd an Tòiseachadh/STOP putan gus an àireamh a tha a’ priobadh atharrachadh (uairean, mionaidean, diogan).
  3. Brùth an LAP/SPLIT/RESET button to move to the next digit or setting (e.g., 12/24-hour format, date).
  4. Cho luath ‘s a bhios na roghainnean uile air an rèiteachadh, brùth air a’ phutan MODE button to exit setup.

6.3. Using the Stopwatch Functions
