Getting Acquainted

Congratulations upon your selection of this CASIO watch. To get the most out of your purchase, be sure to carefully read this manual and keep it on hand for later reference when necessary.

This watch does not have a time zone that corresponds to the Greenwich Mean Time differential of –3.5 hours. Because of this, the radio-controlled timekeeping and World Time functions will not display the correct time for Newfoundland, Canada.

Expose the watch to bright light to charge its batteries before using it. You can use this watch even as its batteries are being charged by exposure to bright light.

Be sure to read “Batteries” of this manual for important information you need to know when exposing the watch to bright light.

If the digital display of the watch is blank...

If the Power Saving indicator ( ) is flashing on the Power saving indicator display, it means that the display is blank because the

watch’s Power Saving function has turned it off to conserve power. Power Saving automatically turns off the

display and enters a sleep state whenever your watch is

left for a certain period in an area where it is dark. If the

watch is kept in the dark for a longer period, the analog

hands will also stop moving after a few days.

The initial factory default setting is Power Saving on.

The watch will recover from the sleep state if you move it to a well-lit area, if you press any button, or if you angle the watch towards your face for reading.

See “Power Saving Function” for more information.

This watch receives a time calibration signal and updates its time setting accordingly. The time calibration signal includes both Standard Time and Daylight Saving Time (summer time) data.

This watch is designed to pick up the time calibration signal transmitted in the United States (Fort Collins, Colorado).

The U.S. time calibration signal can be picked up by the watch while in North America*.

*The term “North America” in this manual refers to the area that consists of Canada, the continental United States, and Mexico.

Current Time Setting

This watch automatically adjusts its time setting in accordance with a time calibration signal. You can also perform a manual procedure to set the time and date, when necessary.

The first thing you should do after purchasing this watch is to set your Home City, which is the city where you will normally use the watch. For more information, see “To set your Home City” below.

When using the watch outside the ranges of the U.S. time signal transmitter, you have to adjust the current time setting manually as required. See “Timekeeping” for more information about manual time setting.

The analog time of this watch is synchronized with the digital time. Because of this, the analog time setting is automatically adjusted whenever you change the digital setting. See “Analog Timekeeping” for more information.
