Important!

 The watch’s Altimeter Mode calculates and displays relative altitude based on barometric pressure 

readings produced by its pressure sensor. This means that readings taken at different times at the 
same location may produce different altitude values due to changes in barometric pressure. Also note 
that the value displayed by the watch may be different from the actual elevation and/or sea level 
elevation indicated for the area where you are located.

 When using the watch’s altimeter while mountain climbing, be sure to perform regular calibration in 

accordance with the local altitude (elevation) indications. For more information, see “To specify a 
reference altitude value” (page E-56).

 Whenever you use the digital compass of this watch for serious trekking, mountain climbing, or other 

activities, be sure always to take along another compass to confi rm readings. If the readings produced 
by the digital compass of this watch are different from those of the other compass, perform bidirectional 
calibration of the digital compass to ensure more accurate readings.

 Direction readings and digital compass calibration will not be possible if the watch is in the vicinity of a 

permanent magnet (magnetic accessory, etc.), metal objects, high-voltage wires, aerial wires, or 
electrical household appliances (TV, computer, cellphone, etc.)

About This Manual

 Depending on the model of your watch, digital display text appears 

either as dark fi gures on a light background, or light fi gures on a dark 
background. All examples in this manual are shown using dark fi gures 
on a light background.

 Button operations are indicated using the letters shown in the 

illustration.

 Note that the product illustrations in this manual are intended for 

reference only, and so the actual product may appear somewhat 
different than depicted by an illustration.

Using the Crown

The crown of this watch is a screw in lock crown. Before using the crown, 
you must fi rst rotate it towards you to loosen it. After performing crown 
operations, be sure to press the crown in lightly as you screw it back in.

Important!

 To maintain water resistance and avoid impact damage to the crown, 

be sure to screw it back in when you are not using it.

The illustrations below show the different crown operations.

High-speed Movement

You can use either of the crown operations described below to move watch hands or indicators at high 
speed.
HS1: Can be used to move both hands and display indicators.
HS2: Can be used when setting the hour and minute manually to move the hands at high speed.

To start HS1 high-speed movement

While the crown is pulled out, rotate it rapidly three turns away from you (for 
forward movement) or towards you (for reverse movement). High-speed 
movement will continue even if you release the crown.

To start HS2 high-speed movement

While HS1 high-speed movement is in progress, again rotate the crown rapidly 
three turns in the same direction as the current HS1 movement (away from you 
for forward movement or towards you for reverse movement).

E-5

To stop high-speed movement

Rotate the crown in the direction that is opposite that of the current high-speed 
movement or press any button.

Note

 If you do not perform any operation for more than two minutes after pulling out the crown, the indicator 

shown below will appear and crown operations will become disabled. If this happens, push the crown 
back in and then pull it out again to re-enable crown operations. 

 Pulling out the crown while the watch is in a mode that does not allow confi guration of any settings will 

cause the indicator shown below to appear. If this happens, push the crown back in and lock it.

 The indicator shown below also appears when performing hand home position adjustment. See “Hand 

Home Position Adjustment” (page E-39) for more information.

1 second

 You can use high-speed movement in the following cases: when changing the time and/or date setting 

in the Timekeeping Mode, World Time Mode, Countdown Timer Mode, or Alarm Mode, or when 
performing magnetic declination angle calibration, altitude calibration, barometric pressure calibration, 
or temperature calibration operations.

Things to check before using the watch

1. Check the battery power level.

Hold down 

B

 for at least two seconds to enter the Timekeeping Mode and display the battery power 

level.

The battery power level will be indicated as 

H

 or 

M

 on the left 

side of the digital display.

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-12).

NO

YES

YES

Does any one of the following conditions exist?

L

” is flashing on the display.

The watch is charged 
sufficiently.
For details about 
charging, see 
“Charging the Watch” 
(page E-12).

When

L

 is fl ashing, the second hand will jump at two-second intervals.

When

CHARGE

 is fl ashing, all hands will move to and stop at 12 o’clock.

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

Use the procedure under “To confi gure Home City and summer time settings” (page E-34) to confi gure 
your Home City and daylight saving time settings.

Important!

 Proper time calibration signal reception, and World Time 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.

 To set the time using a time calibration signal 

  See “To get ready for a receive operation” (page E-21).

 To set the time manually

  See “Confi guring Current Time and Date Settings Manually” (page E-36).

The watch is now ready for use.

 For details about the watch’s radio controlled timekeeping feature, see “Radio Controlled Atomic 

Timekeeping” (page E-19).

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.

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 your watch or its malfunction.
