Stopwatch

The Level 3 charge warning indicator tells you that battery power is very low, and

that exposure to bright light for charging is required as soon as possible.

At Level 4, all functions are disabled and settings return to their initial factory

defaults. Functions are enabled once again after the rechargeable battery is

charged, but you need to set the current time, date, and all other settings after the

battery is recharged to Level 2 from Level 4. Though the time appears on the display

after the battery is charged to Level 3, you will not be able to change the time setting

until the battery reaches Level 2.

Leaving the watch in direct sunlight or some other very strong light source can

cause the battery power indicator to temporarily show a reading that is actually

higher than the battery level. The correct battery power indicator should appear after

a few minutes.

If you use the backlight or the alarms a number of times during a short period, the

Recover indicator ( ) appears on the display and the following operations become

disabled until battery power recovers.

Backlight

Beeper tone

Calibration reception

After some time, battery power will recover and the Recover indicator ( ) will

disappear, indicating that the above functions are enabled again.

Seconds 1/100 second

Hours Minutes

The stopwatch lets you measure elapsed time, split times, and two finishes.

The display range of the stopwatch is 23 hours, 59 minutes, 59.99 seconds.

The stopwatch continues to run, restarting from zero after it reaches its limit, until you stop it.

Exiting the Stopwatch Mode while a split time is frozen on the display clears the split time and returns to elapsed time measurement.

The stopwatch measurement operation continues even if you exit the Stopwatch Mode.

All of the operations in this section are

performed in the Stopwatch Mode, which you enter by pressing C.

Charging Precautions

Certain charging conditions can cause the watch to become very hot. Avoid leaving the watch in the areas described below whenever charging its rechargeable battery.

Warning!

Leaving the watch in bright light to charge its rechargeable battery can cause it to become quite hot. Take care when handling the watch to avoid burn injury. The watch can become particularly hot when exposed to the following conditions for long periods.

Battery

This watch is equipped with a solar cell and a rechargeable battery (secondary battery) that is charged by the electrical power produced by the solar cell. The illustration shown below shows how you should position the watch for charging.

Solar cell

Example: Orient the watch so its face is pointing at a light source.

Note that charging efficiency drops when any part of the solar cell is blocked by clothing, etc.

The illustration shows how to position a watch with a resin band.

Important!

Storing the watch for long periods in an area where there is no light or wearing it in such a way that it is blocked from exposure to light can cause rechargeable battery power to run down. Be sure that the watch is normally exposed to bright light whenever possible.

This watch employs a solar cell that converts light into electricity that charges a built- in rechargeable battery. Normally, the rechargeable battery should not need replacement, but after very long use over a number of years, the rechargeable battery may lose its ability to achieve a full charge. Should you notice problems with getting the rechargeable battery to a full charge, contact your dealer or CASIO distributor about having the rechargeable battery replaced.

The rechargeable battery should be replaced with a CASIO-specified CTL1616 battery only. Other rechargeable batteries can cause damage to the watch.

All data stored in memory is deleted, and the current time and all other settings return to their initial factory defaults whenever battery power drops to Level 4 and when you have battery replaced.

Turn on the watch’s Power Saving function and keep it in an area normally exposed to bright light when storing it for long periods. This helps to keep the rechargeable battery from going dead.

Battery Power Indicator

The battery power indicator on the display shows you the current status of the rechargeable battery’s power.

Reference

This section contains more detailed and technical information about watch operation. It also contains important precautions and notes about the various features and functions of this watch.

Auto Return Features

If you leave the watch in the Alarm or Data Memory Mode for two or three minutes without performing any operation, it automatically changes to the Timekeeping Mode.

If you leave a screen with flashing digits or a cursor on the display for two or three minutes without performing any operation, the watch automatically saves anything you have input up to that point and exits the setting screen.

Data and Setting Scrolling

The Aand Dbuttons are used in various modes and setting screens to scroll through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a scroll operation scrolls through the data at high speed.
