Important!
●
If the second hand stops for some
time after the watch is continuously
exposed to light, it could mean that
charging is not possible due to over-
discharge. Request chargeable
(secondary) battery replacement by
your original retailer or authorized
CASIO service center.
●
Depending on light intensity and
local conditions, the watch may
become hot to the touch when
exposed to light for charging. Take
care to avoid burn injury after
charging. Also, avoid charging the
watch under high-temperature
conditions like the ones described
below.

Note
●
Exposing the watch face to light after
the battery goes dead will cause the
second hand to revolve
counterclockwise until it stops at
second 57. This indicates charging
has started.
●
A fully charged watch can operate
for approximately seven months
without further charging. Watch
operation will stop approximately 20
