User manual TAG HEUER MONACO SIXTY NINE

[. . . ] INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of the TAG Heuer Monaco Sixty Nine, the world's first reversible chronograph that integrates a traditional, mechanical "dial" movement wristwatch and a digital chronograph accurate to within 1/1000 th of a second. The unique flip-over system of the Monaco Sixty Nine, designed and patented by TAG Heuer, is the most avant-garde example of Swiss watch-making. This truly exceptional timepiece allows you to enjoy the traditional appearance of an analog watch with hands and the 1/1000 th-of-a-second accuracy of a precision quartz movement with a clear, easy-to-read digital display ­ all with a simple flip of the dial. Each TAG Heuer timepiece is built to meet the most exacting requirements. The materials used in our watches make them exceptionally resilient, and very careful attention is paid to detail. [. . . ] Position 1: manually rewinding the movement In this position, you can rewind the mechanical movement by rapidly rotating the crown. Position 2: quickly setting the time To adjust the time, pull the crown out to position 2 and rotate it in the desired direction. Remember to always push the crown back into position 1 once the time has been set. Broken shaft Caution: The mechanical movement of your Monaco Sixty Nine has a special shaft that links it to the crown through a tube. This "broken shaft" is made up of two parts: ­ a male section, which fits into the movement ­ a female section, which is attached to the crown If you pull the crown out too abruptly when setting the time quickly, the shaft may come away from the movement. If this happens, simply reinsert the shaft into the tube, pushing it in carefully with your thumb while turning the crown slightly so that it gently connects with the male section of the movement. To check that the shaft has been properly reinserted, try setting the time. If you are not certain, we recommend that you take the watch to your nearest authorized dealer. DISPLAY MODES ON THE DIGITAL FACE The digital display of your Monaco Sixty Nine has six different modes: > T1 mode: > AL mode: > F1 mode: > BEST LP mode: > Ch mode: > T2 mode: Main time and date Alarm F1 timekeeping Best lap (LP = LAP) ­ for consulting lap times stored in the memory Chronograph Second time zone 9 OVERVIEW OF THE BUTTONS Your Monaco Sixty Nine has four push buttons: A, B, C and D (fig. Their functions differ depending on the mode selected and the way they are pressed. There are two ways of pushing the buttons: ­ short (less than 2 seconds) or ­ long (more than 2 seconds) Caution: water-resistance cannot be guaranteed if the buttons are pressed under water. 8 9 MODE DETAILS AND BUTTON FUNCTIONS T1 mode Main time (hours-minutes-seconds) and date (day of the month, day of the week) are shown. "T1" appears for three seconds, followed by "AL" if the alarm has been set (fig. By default, T1 is shown as a 24-hour clock. If the 12-hour clock is selected, this is indicated in the center-right of the display (fig. In T1 mode, the button functions are: A B C D D short push = activates standby mode (screen goes blank)* = no function. = activates the backlight for six seconds. short push = selects the next mode long push = selected mode can be set. 9 Hours Minutes Seconds In AL mode, the button functions are: A A B C D D long push = alarm is set or unset beep means that the alarm is set long push = alarm test sound is set = activates the backlight for six seconds short push = selects the next mode long push = selected mode can be set fig. Therefore, to time one lap only, button A should be pressed to start, then A again to store the result in the memory and then B to stop timing. 14 Note: the memory has a maximum capacity of 80 laps. When the memory is full, the timings of laps 1 to 79 are kept and each new lap is stored in position 80, thereby erasing the time of the previous lap. Total time The total time is shown at the top in minutes, seconds and thousandths of a second. The number of hours appears in the bottom left unless the total time is less than one hour (a dash appears if it is more than 10 hours). [. . . ] The months are shown as: JAN, FEB, MAR, APR, MAY, JUN, JUL, AUG, SEP, OCT, NOV, DEC. The years are shown as: 00 = 2000, 01 = 2001, 02 = 2002 etc. (99 = 2099. ) Setting the alarm (AL) (fig. 25) ­ Select the AL function by pressing button D . [. . . ]
