• For accurate results, swim the entire pool length, and use one stroke type for the entire length. Pause the
activity timer when resting.
• Press to record a rest during pool swimming (Auto Rest and Manual Rest, page10).
The watch automatically records swim intervals and lengths for pool swimming.
• To help the watch count your lengths, use a strong push off the wall and glide before your first stroke.
• When doing drills, you must either pause the activity timer or use the drill logging feature (Training with the
Drill Log, page10).
