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.
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.
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
x
pointed at a source of bright light.
You should try to keep the watch outside of your sleeve as much as
x
possible. Charging is reduced signifi cantly if the face is even only partially
covered.
