Getting Acquainted

Congratulations upon your selection of this CASIO watch. To get the most out of your purchase, be sure to read this manual carefully.

This watch does not have a time zone that corresponds to the UTC offset of

3.5 hours. Because of this, the radio-controlled timekeeping and World Time functions will not display the correct time for Newfoundland, Canada.

Caution!

Your watch is shipped with its Auto Display feature (which continually changes the contents of the digital display) turned on. Calibration signal reception is disabled while Auto Display is turned on.

Press any button to turn off Auto Display and return to the Timekeeping Mode.

Important!

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 operation (in the middle of the night). You can also perform manual receive or you can set the time manually.

The watch will receive the time calibration signal automatically from the applicable transmitter (in the middle of the night) and update its settings accordingly. For information about the relationship between city codes and transmitters, see “Home City Codes and Transmitters”.

Under factory default settings, auto receive is turned off for all of the following city codes: HNL (Honolulu), ANC (Anchorage), ATH (Athens), and MOW (Moscow). For details about turning on auto receive for these city codes, see “To turn auto receive on and off”.

You can disable time signal reception, if you want. See “To turn auto receive on and off” for more information.

See the maps under “Approximate Reception Ranges” for information about the reception ranges of the watch.

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

Time Calibration Signal Reception

There are two different methods you can use to receive the time calibration signal: auto receive and manual receive.

Auto Receive

With auto receive, the watch receives the time calibration signal automatically up to six times a day. When any auto receive is successful, the remaining auto receive operations are not performed. For more information, see “About Auto Receive”.

Manual Receive

Manual receive lets you start a time calibration receive operation with the press of a button. For more information, see “To perform manual receive”.
