3. After confirming that the hour and minute hands are in

the correct home position, press C. This will advance

to day of the week hand home position adjustment.

• The day of the week hand is in the correct home

position if it is pointing at 0 (or 60). If it isn’t, use D

(+) and B (–) to move the hand to 0 (or 60).

4. After confirming that the day of the week hand is in the

correct home position, press C. This will advance to

date home position adjustment.

• The date is in the correct home position if it shows “1”.

If it doesn’t, use D (+) and B (–) to change the date

to “1”.

• Pressing C here will return to the timekeeping

second hand and stopwatch second hand home

position adjustment in step 1 of this procedure.

5. Press Ato return to the Timekeeping Mode.

•After you complete the home position adjustment procedure, place the watch in a location that allows good time calibration signal reception, and then perform a manual receive operation. See “To perform manual receive” for more information.

Power Supply

This watch is equipped with a solar cell and a special 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.

Example: Orient the watch so its face is

Solar cell

pointing at a light source.

 

• The illustration shows how to position

 

a watch with a resin band.

 

• Note that charging efficiency drops

 

when any part of the solar cell is

 

blocked by clothing, etc.

30

• You should try to keep the watch

 

outside of your sleeve as much as

 

possible. Even if the face of the watch

 

is blocked from light only partially,

 

charging will be reduced significantly.

 

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. Make sure that the watch is exposed to bright light whenever

possible.

• This watch uses a special rechargeable battery to store power produced by the solar

cell, so regular battery replacement is not required. However, after very long use, the

rechargeable battery may lose its ability to achieve a full charge. If you experience

problems getting the special rechargeable battery to charge fully, contact your dealer

or CASIO distributor about having it replaced.

• The special rechargeable (secondary) battery used by your watch is not intended to

be removed or replaced by you. Use of a rechargeable battery other than the special

one specified for this watch can damage the watch.

• The current time and all other settings return to their initial factory defaults whenever

battery power drops to Level 3 and when you have the battery replaced.

Correct date home position

Timekeeping

• Keep the watch in an area normally exposed to bright light when storing it for long

periods. This helps to keep the rechargeable battery from going dead.

Date

Use the Timekeeping Mode to set and view the current time and date. This section also explains how to set the current date and time manually.

•All of the operations in this section are performed in the Timekeeping Mode.

To set the time and date manually

1.In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down Afor about five seconds until the watch beeps twice.

•The stopwatch second hand will move to the city code of the currently selected Home City. This is the city code setting mode.

•The second hand will stop at “0”.*

*Some models show “60” instead of “0”.

2.Use Dto change the Home City setting.

•For full information on city codes, see the “City Code Table”.

The movement of the analog hands indicates the current battery power level.

Jumps two seconds

• The second hand jumping every two seconds (Level 2) indicates that battery power

is quite low. Expose the watch to light as soon as possible to charge the battery.

3. Use Bto cycle through the DST settings in the sequence shown below.

(AT/AUTO)

•Auto DST (AT/AUTO) can be selected only while LON, PAR, ATH, HNL, ANC, LAX, DEN, CHI, NYC, HKG, or TYO is selected as the Home City code. For more information, see “Daylight Saving Time (DST)”.

•Even after you change the DST setting, you can still use Dto select a different Home City code if you want.

4.After the Home City and DST settings are the way you want, press C.

•This will cause the watch to beep, and the stopwatch second hand and day of the week hand to move to their 12 o’clock positions.This is the time setting mode.

5.Use D(+) and B(–) to change the time (hour and minute) setting.

•As you set the time, take care to ensure that the 24-hour hand also is at the correct position.

• When battery power is at Level 2, time calibration signal reception is disabled.

• At Level 3, all functions are disabled and settings return to their initial factory

defaults. The watch will continue to keep time internally for about one month after the

battery drops to Level 3. If you recharge the battery sufficiently during this period,

the analog hands will move automatically to the correct setting and normal

timekeeping will resume.

• Alarm operation can cause hand movement to stop due to a sudden temporary drop

in battery power. This does not indicate malfunction, and normal operation will

resume when the watch is exposed to light. Though hand movement stops,

timekeeping continues internally, and the hands will be adjusted to the correct

setting when normal operation returns.

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.

•On the dashboard of a car parked in direct sunlight

•Too close to an incandescent lamp

•Under direct sunlight
