REGATTA >
GLOSSARY
Regatta
A regatta is a race between two or more boats, generally sailing boats.
It comprises several stages, and begins with a "start procedure" which can last up to 10 minutes, during which
all the boats competing in the regatta must remain behind the start line. As the boats are constantly moving
behind this line, the goal is to remain as close as possible to it when the countdown ends, in order to gain
the advantage from the off. Throughout the "start procedure", cannon shots tell the regatta competitors the
time remaining before the start signal. To maximise your chances of a flying start, you can synchronise your
T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 with the cannon shots.
Once the countdown has finished, the race starts and all the competitors must follow a course marked by
buoys around which they must navigate on their way to the finish line. The boat finishing the course first wins
the regatta.
Description of function
Your
T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 is equipped with a special countdown for regattas, which can be set to a value of
between 0 and 10 minutes, and used during the regatta "start procedure". The watch emits a triple beep at the
end of every minute, a double beep every ten seconds during the last minute, a single beep for each of the last
9 seconds, and finally a quintuple beep announcing the start of the race when the countdown reaches zero.
Furthermore, during the countdown you can synchronise your
T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 with the cannon shots using
the "-" push-button. It is synchronised to the nearest whole minute.
When the countdown reaches zero, it automatically switches to a race chronograph, indicating the days, hours,
minutes and seconds elapsed on the LCD screen.
Fast continuous setting
When setting the watch, you can press and hold the push-button to switch to
fast continuous setting mode, in which the display moves at a faster rate than
in non-continuous or normal speed setting mode. To exit fast continuous setting
mode, you need to release the push-buttons for 1 second to continue in normal
speed setting mode.
SENSOR FAULT

When a function is selected and the display is cleared, it is probably due to a
failure of the selected function's sensor.

WARNINGS
Battery type: ML2016 accumulator.
To activate the functions on your
T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 a gentle press on the
push-buttons or touch on the glass is all that is required. Excessive force may
damage the watch.
The brightness of the digital display decreases when the hands are in motion.
Temperature
Do not expose your watch to sudden temperature changes (exposure to sunlight
followed by immersion in cold water) or extreme temperatures (e.g. under a car
windscreen in direct sunlight).
Watch operating range:
-5°C to +55°C / 23°F to 131°F
Water-resistance
The
T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 is water resistant to 10 bar (100 m / 330 ft) at
25°C / 77°F, but it is not an instrument suitable for sports diving. You must not
use the push-buttons when the watch is underwater. None of the functions can
be activated if the glass is in contact with a liquid.
A watch cannot be permanently guaranteed absolutely water-resistant. It may
be affected by ageing of the gaskets or by an accidental impact on the watch.
We recommend that you have your watch's water resistance checked once a year
by an approved TISSOT
®
service centre.
