The time is displayed in the middle of screen 2.Screen settings (changing from the default settings) Changing the pace displayThe following three types of pace can be displayed on the device.When you need to check your pace for each section, such as when running in a competition, we recommend displaying the lap pace (PaceLa).Pace Displays the current pace.(The extent of display uctuation diers depending on the GPS reception conditions and so on.)Lap pace (PaceLa) Displays the average pace for the current lap.Average pace (PaceAv) Displays the average pace from measurement start to nish. Using the auto lap functionWhen using in a location in which you do not know the distance, we recommend using auto lap (  P. 79). When [AT Lap] is set to [ON], laps are automatically measured for the set distance. The default setting is [OFF].Although auto lap is a useful function, the gap between the actual distance may increase during competitions in urban areas where GPS reception may be weak. If you are concerned about the gap between the actual display distance, set [AT Lap] to [OFF], and perform manual lap measurements (by pressing  ).
