About speed calculations
Once you preset a lap distance, the watch automatically calculates the speed of each
lap (in Kilometers or miles per hour) in accordance with the time measured by the
stopwatch. This function is useful in the timing of motor sports events.
· You can view calculated speeds in the Recall Mode.
· Speeds can be calculated up to 999 (km/h or mph).
