ABSTRACT:
A multimode electronic timepiece has a display, an audible alarm device, manually actuated switches, and an integrated circuit programmed to provide several operating modes. The modes include a first mode in which an alarm sounding setting is displayed, which is alterable in response to actuation of a selected setting switch. The modes include a second mode in which said alarm sounding setting is not displayed, but in which said audible alarm device may be disabled by actuation of a selected disabling switch. The improvement consists of a display of the alarm setting which pops up when the alarm sounds and allows the user to reset or restart the timing cycle within a preselected time by actuation of at least one selected switch. A timer causes the pop-up display to disappear without alteration of the alarm setting if the switch is not actuated within the preselected time.
