ADD Rally function (partial times)
Used for measuring successive events, but not the intervals between
them. Each result is automatically added to the preceding one. To
time the various stages of a car rally, for example:
• At the start of the first stage, press push-piece A
to start the chronograph.
• At the end
of the rst stage, press push-piece
A again, and the
chronograph will stop to 1/10
th
of a second.
Repeat this procedure for each stage of the rally.
At the end
of the nal stage the chronograph will show the total time
of the rally, in other words, the accumulated time for all the stages..
• Press push-piece B to reset.
IMPORTANT! While the watch displays an intermediate time the
chronograph function will still be timing the event.
