ATS (Automatic Tide System) FUNCTIONSATS TIDE HEIGHT DIALThis dial indicates the tide height, direction (i.e. whether rising or falling) and the approximate time to the next high or low tide.You need to score a tide chart from your local surf shop (or newspaper) to initially set this dial.To set the ATS Tide Height Dial.......for quickest setting: Make sure that your watch is on the correct time anddate prior to setting the tide height dial, then from yourtide chart calculate the tide height right now then; 1.Make sure your watch is completely dry; 2.Unscrew the crown (as described in Screw Crown section); 3.Pull the crown out to point B; 4.Turn crown anti-clockwise/towards you to set the height hand to the correct height (each black marker denotes approximately half hour intervals)

....for the most accurate setting;From your tide chart note the last high tide time then; 1.Make sure your watch is completely dry; 2.Unscrew the crown (as described in Screw Crown section); 3.Pull crown out fully to point C; 4. Set the time to exactly the last high tide time as shown on your chart; 5. Push back crown to point B (half way); 6. Turn crown anticlockwise/towards you to turn the Tide Height hand to HIGH; 7. Carefully pull crown out fully; 8. Turn the hands to reset the correct time (note that the Tide Height hand automatically turns also); 9. Push back crown fully in to point A; 10. Fully screw in crown (as described in Screw Crown section)

Note: When adjusting your watch for daylight saving you will need to reset your ATS Tide Height dial.

BEZEL FUNCTIONSTo find out how to use the unique turning bezel of your watch refer to the BEZEL INSTRUCTIONS section starting on page 59.

Important: Tidemaster watches must not be used for navigation at any time. Tidemaster watches approximate the tides based upon average intervals and lunar cycles. Local tide conditions can vary from their indicated display.

ATS TIDE RANGE DIAL (Only available on tidemaster styles)There is no setting necessary for the ATS Tide Range dial. This dial is preset at the factory to synchronize with the lunar cycle and as long as the Moon phase dial is set accurately to your local area the Range dial will read correctly.This dial indicates the difference between successive high and low tides. This does not necessarily show very high or very low tides but rather the variant of water movement from high to low and back to high again. When the hand is in the grey area of this dial it indicates periods of maximum tidal range called “Spring Tides.” The black area indicates times of minimal tidal range known as “Neap Tides.”Note: Neap tides occur on the first & last quarters of the moon’s cycle and relate to the minimal tidal movement periods of the month.Spring Tides occur on the full & new moon cycles and relate to the maximum tidal move ment periods of the month.

Automatic Tide SystemEasily set to thousands of beaches world wide to perpetually display graphic tide and moon phase conditions.

DESCRIPTION OF MODES & FUNCTIONSThere are SEVEN modes of operation. By depressing the MODE button there is a visual indication of what function has been chosen, just check out the boxes in the middle of the screen.

NT Normal Time: The display shows hour in 24hr Military time or in AM & PM, minute, second, month, date, day of week, moon phase and & tide conditions all till 2099. Note : Moon Phase information is factory preset, as long as you have correct local time, date and year, the moon phase will be correct for your area.Daylight Saving Time: By simply pushing and holding for 5 seconds the START/STOP (STR/STP) button, the normal time can be advanced one hour to show Daylight Saving time. By pushing and holding for 5 seconds the START/STOP button again, it will revert back to standard time.

AL Alarm Mode: By choosing a time, an alarm will sound each day at the preselected time. The alarm is a strong chime and can be immediately shut off by pushing any button or will automatically shut off after 30 seconds.

TM Countdown Timer: A countdown timer with duration from 1 second to 99 hrs, 59 minutes, 59 seconds is easily selected. It can be started and allowed to count down; or it can be stopped and restarted. At the end of the countdown a full chime sounds for 30 seconds. Note : At the end

OCEANTIDE DIGITAL

of the countdown the timer automatically starts to count up from zero. This new function is to advise you how much time has elapsed since the alarm went off.

CH Chronograph (Stop watch) with lap memory:A chronograph/stop watch (count-up timer) will count in 100th of a second from 0 to 99 hours, 59 minutes, 59 seconds.Simply push the START/STOP to commence and stop the chronograph. Then push and hold the LAP/RESET button for 3 seconds to reset to 00:00:00.

FT Future Tide: Based upon correctly programmed local High Tide information, the OCEANTIDE watch will provide a graphic display of the Tide conditions and Moon Phase for any day and time till 2099. So you can see what the Tide and Moon are doing to help plan your surf trips and holidays. NOTE: It is also in this mode that you program your local High Tide information. See the setting of local High Tide section.

DT Dual Time: This function is very useful should you travel away from home to another time zone. We recommend you program the DT setting to your home time and date, and program your NT setting to the new time zone actual time and date. (You must do this if you want your daily alarm to work correctly for the time zone you are in.)

FT2 Future Tide TWO: Again, based upon correctly programmed local High Tide information, the OCEANTIDE watch will provide a SECOND graphic display of the Tide conditions and Moon Phase for any day and time SET IN DUAL TIME (till 2099). So you can see what the Tide and Moon are doing to help plan your surf trips and holidays. NOTE: It is also in this mode that you program your local High Tide information for the DT area. See the setting of DT area High Tide section.

LIGHT FUNCTION: In any MODE you can simply push the LIGHT button and the whole screen will light up and stay on for 3 seconds.

Waterproof Tested Tide & Surf Watches

RIP CURL PTY. LTD. assumes no responsibility for any loss, or any claims by third parties that may arise through the use of this watch.

Rip Curl watches are tested to the highest industry standards with the best Swiss pressure testing equipment and are purpose built for Surfing !NOTE : All Industry standards watch testing is done to an overpressure situation in a static laboratory environment and does not signify a diving depth. See recommended usage table.

Due to the fact that Surfing is in no way a static sport there are influences that can effect a watches ability to keep water out. eg : Frequent tempera-ture changes, salt water and big wipeouts can diminish the longevity of the watches rubber seals.

To keep your watch in peak condition for Surfing we recommend every 24 months you have your watch seals replaced and fully tested at the Rip Curl Watch Service Centre. (See page 69 for contact details.)
