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 and keep it on hand for later reference
when necessary.

Keep the watch exposed to 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.

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. Even if the face of the watch is
only partially blocked from light, charging will be
significantly reduced.

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 cause 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.

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.

watch). If your location is not included in the preset city codes, select the preset city
code that is in the same time zone as your location.

 Note that all of the times for the World Time Mode city codes are displayed in

accordance with the digital time and date settings you configure in the Timekeeping
Mode.

Analog Timekeeping
The analog time of this watch is synchronized with the digital time. The analog time
setting is adjusted automatically whenever you change the digital time.

Note

 The hands for the analog timepiece move to adjust to a new setting whenever any of

the following occurs.
When you change the digital time setting
When you change the Home City code and/or DST setting

 If the analog time does not match the digital time for some reason, use the

procedure below to adjust the analog time to the digital time.

 Whenever you need to adjust both the digital and the analog time settings manually,

make sure you adjust the digital setting first.

 Depending on how much the hands have to move in order to adjust to the digital

time, it may take some time before they stop moving.
