What is the sound that happens with 4 fast clicks of light button ???

I just found out if I click on the light button 4 or 5 times really fast the watch makes a beeping sound. Anyone knows what it means? I couldn't find anything.

Interesting. I've found that it has been discussed before:

I've checked a number of settings with no success. It doesn't seem to do anything. Nothing in the manual either.

Interesting, seems noone knows. Maybe it could be for no reason at all.

My best guess is that this is simply a warning that your backlight button is getting pressed repetitively. I know it sounds obvious, but give it a thought. Backlight is a battery drainer and you don't want your battery to get drained because the backlight button might get pressed unintentionally (by getting stuck in your sleeve or something alike). Other buttons have a function getting pressed multiple times (going through menu's, starting/pausing activities, creating manual laps, etc). The backlight button doesn't have a feature connected that requires it to be pressed repetitively. Hence a warning is issued.

Again, it's just a guess.
