Congratulations upon your selection of this CASIO watch.

Applications

The built-in sensors of this watch measure direction, barometric pressure, temperature and altitude. 
Measured values are then shown on the display. Such features make this watch useful when hiking, 
mountain climbing, or when engaging in other such outdoor activities.

Warning !

 The measurement functions built into this watch are not intended for taking measurements that 

require professional or industrial precision. Values produced by this watch should be considered 
as reasonable representations only.

 The Moon phase indicator and tide graph data that appear on the display of this watch are not 

intended for navigation purposes. Always use proper instruments and resources to obtain data for 
navigation purposes.

 This watch is not an instrument for calculating low tide and high tide times. The tide graph of this 

watch is intended to provide a reasonable approximation of tidal movements only.

When engaging in mountain climbing or other activities in which losing your way can create a 
dangerous or life-threatening situation, always use a second compass to confi rm direction readings.

 Note that CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD. assumes no responsibility for any damage or loss 

suffered by you or any third party arising through the use of this product or its malfunction.

Things to check before using the watch

1. Check the battery power level.

Is “

H

” or “

M

” displayed for the battery power indicator (page E-11)?

Go to step 2.

Power is low.

 Charge the watch by placing it in a location 

where it is exposed to light. For details, see “Charging the 
Watch” (page E-9).

NO

YES

YES

Does any one of the following conditions exist?

 Battery power indicator shows “

L

” and “

LOW

” is flashing on the 

display.

 “

C

” is flashing on the display.

 The face is blank.

The watch is charged 
sufficiently.
For details about 
charging, see 
“Charging the Watch” 
(page E-9).

2. Check the Home City and the daylight saving time (DST) setting.

Use the procedure under “To confi gure Home City settings” (page E-20) to confi gure your Home City and 
daylight saving time settings.

Important!

Proper World Time Mode and Tide/Moon Data Mode data depend on correct Home City, time, and date 
settings in the Timekeeping Mode. Make sure you confi gure these settings correctly.

3. Set the current time.

  See “Confi guring Current Time and Date Settings” (page E-22).

The watch is now ready for use.
