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.

Keep the watch exposed to bright light

 

 

Bright Light

 

 

The electricity generated by the solar cell of the watch is

 

 

 

 

stored by a built-in battery. Leaving or using the watch where

it is not exposed to light causes the battery to run down.

 

 

Make sure the watch is exposed to light as much as possible.

 

 

 

 

Solar cell

When you are not wearing the watch on your wrist,

position the face so it is pointed at a source of bright light.

 

 

You should try to keep the watch outside of your sleeve

 

as much as possible. Charging is reduced significantly if

 

the face is only partially covered.

The watch continues to operate, even when it is not exposed to light. Leaving the watch in the dark can cause the battery to run down, which will result in some watch functions to be disabled. If the battery goes dead, you will have to re-configure watch settings after recharging. To ensure normal watch operation, be sure to keep it exposed to light as much as possible.

The actual level at which some functions are disabled depends on the watch model.

Frequent display illumination can run down the battery quickly and require charging. The following guidelines give an idea of the charging time required to recover from a single illumination operation.

Approximately 5 minutes exposure to bright sunlight coming in through a window Approximately 50 minutes exposure to indoor fluorescent lighting

Be sure to read “Power Supply” for important information you need to know when exposing the watch to bright light.

If the display of the watch is blank...

If the display of the watch is blank, it means that the watch’s Power Saving function has turned off the display to conserve power.

See “Power Saving Function” for more information.

Second hand

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 from Anthorn, England and the signal from Mainflingen, Germany.

4. Press A twice to exit the setting screen.

The first press of A displays the 12/24-hour setting screen. Pressing A again exits the setting screen.

The second hand will advance at high speed to the correct position in accordance with seconds count of the digital time, and resume normal movement from there.

Normally, your watch should show the correct time as soon as you select your Home City Code. If it does not, it should adjust automatically after the next auto receive (in the middle of the night). You can also perform manual receive or you can set the time manually.

If you are in an area that does not use Daylight Saving Time (summer time), turn off the DST setting.

See “Transmitters” for details about the transmitter indicator.

To display the digital time and last signal screen

In the Timekeeping Mode, press A to cycle through the digital time screens as

shown below.

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 in an area that is outside of the range of the transmitters in Anthorn and Mainflingen, you need to manually adjust the time as required. See “Timekeeping” for information about manual settings.

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.

In the Timekeeping Mode, press D to display the last signal screen. The last signal

screen shows the date and time of the last successful time calibration signal

reception.
