(D) : Depression  
(A) : Anticyclone  
The watch measures these variations in pressure and  
indicates the meteorological trend.  
When atmospheric pressure increases, the sky clears. The  
hands move to the right.  
This is called a "high pressure" zone or "anticyclone" (A).  
Miscellaneous information  
The program on your watch takes into consideration variations in atmospheric pressure  
over the previous 8 hours to calculate the trend to be displayed, ensuring greater reliability  
and precision than a "mechanical" barometer which only displays an instantaneous trend.  
When atmospheric pressure decreases, the sky clouds over.  
The hands move to the left.  
The is called a "low pressure" zone or "depression" (D).  
The change in pressure is measured and displayed using  
the hands which can assume the following 7 positions  
depending on the meteorological trend:  
Furthermore, the variation in pressure caused by a rapid change in altitude is detected by  
the program and compensated for automatically. It therefore has no influence on the  
barometric trend.

COMPASS  
Compass, indication of geographical North  
Description of the function  
In COMPASS mode, your watchindicates the  
geographical north pole, taking the magnetic  
deviation into consideration.  
The COMPASS function, as any other compass, must not  
be used near a metal or magnetic object.

Thanks to its rotating glass, the watch can be oriented in  
the same direction as a map. This glass is graded with the  
following values:  
- 30˚ between a cardinal point (N,E,W,S) and the closest  
points.  
Explanations  
The vertical lines (meridians) on a globe converge toward  
the geographical north pole (Ng) and indicate its direction.

conventional compass indicates the  
It is very important that you hold the watch as horizontal as  
possible to obtain a true indication of North.  
The angle (α) between these two directions is called the  
magnetic deviation. The value of the magnetic deviation  
therefore depends on your position on the globe.

Furthermore, the magnetic north pole is constantly  
changing. The value of the magnetic deviation therefore  
also depends on the date.  
When the correct value (depending on place and date) of  
the magnetic deviation is set (see the adjustment procedure  
on page 12), the minute hand on your watch displays the  
direction of the geographical North (Ng).  
The values and dates of the magnetic deviation are  
displayed on topographical maps or can be calculated  
using special software.

ALTIMETER  
Note: "Calibrating" an altimeter means setting it  
to the actual altitude of a known point (see the  
setting procedure on page 14).  
The values of actual altitudes can be found from  
various sources: signs, contour lines and  
benchmarks on maps.  
Indication of altitude in relation to sea level

Description of the function  
In ALTIMETER mode, your watch is transformed into a  
barometric altimeter and displays the altitude in  
relation to the average sea level.

Explanations  
Your watch compensates for temperature.  
As this instrument is barometric, it calculates the altitude  
according to atmospheric pressure.  
2000m  
1500m  
The altitude displayed is therefore corrected automatically.  
The altimeter makes a measurement every 10 seconds.  
As altitude increases, pressure decreases and vice versa.  
Therefore, the altimeter measures the difference in  
pressure and displays the altitude. It is therefore an ideal  
instrument for measuring ascents. (e. g. when hiking in the  
mountains).

Your altimeter will not show the variations in altitude in an aircraft  
as the cabin is pressurised (constant pressure).

Warning!  
Average variation in pressure and temperature depending on altitude:  
As pressure is used to calculate the altitude, the altimeter is sensitive to variations in  
atmospheric pressure as the weather changes. It is not uncommon to see differences in  
altitude of 100 m in one night.

In meteo mode the display shows "hPa" but no value  
The pressure sensor is faulty  
The temperature displayed is the temperature of the  
watch case. Its temperature is therefore influenced by  
your body temperature. Thus, the temperature  
displayed may be different from the ambient  
temperature.  
Ask an approved Hamilton dealer to repair the watch  
In meteo mode the two hands are not exactly over noon  
Normal operation of the watch (trend between -6 and +6 minutes)  
See the description of the barometer function on page 9  
To display the actual ambient temperature, the watch  
must be taken off for about 15 to 30 minutes so that it  
is no longer affected by your body temperature.  
See the glossary, explanation of the barometer function on page 16  
The two hands are not superposed when a function is selected  
The time indicated by the hands is different to that shown in the digital display  
The hands are no longer synchronised  
Synchronise the hands, see page 4
