Important!
•
Storing the watch for long periods in an area where there is no light or wearing it in
such a way that it is blocked from exposure to light can cause rechargeable battery
power to run down. Make sure that the watch is normally exposed to bright light
whenever possible.
•
Normally, the rechargeable batteries should not need replacement, but after very
long use over a number of years, they may lose the ability to achieve a full charge.
Should you notice problems with getting the rechargeable batteries to a full charge,
contact your dealer or CASIO distributor about having them replaced.
•
The rechargeable batteries should be replaced with CASIO-specified CTL1025
batteries only. Other rechargeable batteries can cause damage to the watch.
•
All data stored in memory is deleted, and the current time and all other settings
return to their initial factory defaults whenever battery power drops to Level 4 and if
you should ever need to have the rechargeable batteries replaced.
•
Turn on the watch’s Power Saving function and keep it in an area normally exposed
to bright light when storing it for long periods. This helps to keep the rechargeable
batteries from going dead.

•
The flashing charge indicator (
) at Level 3 tells you that battery power is
very low, and that exposure to bright light for charging is required as soon as
possible.
•
At Level 4, all functions are disabled and settings return to their initial factory
defaults. Functions are enabled once again after the rechargeable batteries are
charged, but you need to set the time and date, after the batteries reach Level 3
(indicated by the flashing charge indicator) from Level 4. You will not be able to
configure any of the other settings until the batteries reach Level 2 (no charge
indicator) after dropping to Level 4.
•
Leaving the watch in direct sunlight or some other very strong light source can cause the
battery power indicator to momentarily show a reading that is higher than the actual
battery level. The correct battery power indicator should appear after a few minutes.
•
If you use the light or alarms a number of times during a short period, the recover
indicator appears on the display and the following operations become disabled until
battery power recovers.
Illumination
Beeper tone
Coordination between digital and analog timekeeping
Time calibration signal reception
After some time, battery power will recover and the recover indicator will disappear,
indicating that the above functions are enabled again.
Charging Precautions
Certain charging conditions can cause the watch to become very hot. Avoid leaving
the watch in the areas described below whenever charging its rechargeable batteries.
Also note that allowing the watch to become very hot can cause its liquid crystal
display to black out. The appearance of the LCD should become normal again when
the watch returns to a lower temperature.
Warning!
Leaving the watch in bright light to charge its rechargeable batteries can cause
it to become quite hot. Take care when handling the watch to avoid burn injury.
The watch can become particularly hot when exposed to the following
conditions for long periods.
•
On the dashboard of a car parked in direct sunlight
•
Too close to an incandescent lamp

After a full charge, timekeeping remains enabled for up to about 7 months.
•
The following table shows the amount of time the watch needs to be exposed to light
each day in order to generate enough power for normal daily operations.

The table below shows the amount exposure that is required to take the batteries from
one level to the next.
