• Altitude alarm. • Five user -set, customizable altitude reference points. Barometer • T racks high, low and current pressure as well as sea level pressure. • Displays sea level pressure changes in a graph. • Operating range from 300 to 1100 mbar (9 to 32.
QUICK ST AR T The next three pages will give you the basics you need to get your watch up and running in under 5 minutes. Continue reading for full instructions. Setting the Time and Date 1. Press MODE until time of day a ppears. 2. Press and hold SET to start.

“When the alarm beeps you know you’ve reached your set altitude. This quick reminder will allow you to assess your condition and decide if you are on track for a successful ascent. ” -Conrad Anker World-Renowned Mountaineer T o set the T arget Altitude or Altimeter Alarm: 1.
As it is an inverse relationship between altitude and barometric pressure , if I wake at the same or lo wer elevation I can be confident the atmospheric pressure has remained constant. If I rise to a higher altitude I need to be aware as there is a chance a low pr essure is moving in.
Y ou only need to calibrate the barometer OR altimeter , since they rely on the same pressure. See Calibration Mode on page 36 for more information. TEMPERA TURE AND FORECAST In TIME, AL TI, BARO, CHRONO, and TIMER Modes, your WS4 ™ watch includes information about temperature and forecast.
