About Temperature Measurements
When you first display the Temperature screen, it shows the current temperature at that time. If you leave the Temperature screen on the display, temperature measurements are taken every five seconds for the first three minutes. After that, temperature measurements are taken every five minutes.
Temperature measurements are affected by your body temperature (while you are wearing the watch), direct sunlight, and moisture. To achieve a more accurate temperature measurement, remove the watch from your wrist, place it in a well ventilated location out of direct sunlight, and wipe off all moisture from the case. It takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes for the case of the watch to reach the actual surrounding temperature.
You can change the measured temperature value displayed by this watch between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F). See “Changing the Temperature Units” .

(14.0°F to 140.0°F). The temperature value will be displayed again as soon as the measured temperature is within the allowable range.
BAROMETER
This watch uses a pressure sensor to measure air pressure. You can calibrate the pressure sensor if you suspect the barometric pressure reading is incorrect.
Applications
Before going mountain climbing, you can take readings to find out the probable upcoming weather.
You can predict the weather for golf or other outdoor activities.
Important!
The pressure sensor built into this watch measures changes in air pressure, which you can then apply to your own weather predictions. It is not intended for use as a precision instrument in official weather prediction or reporting applications.
The barometric pressures that you see in the newspaper and on the TV weather report are measurements corrected to values measured at 0m sea level.

The “Improving” graphic and rising tendency indicator are shown immediately after replacement of the watch batteries.
Barometric pressure graph
Barometric pressure indicates changes in the atmosphere. By monitoring these changes you can predict the weather with reasonable accuracy. The barometric pressure graph shows the barometric readings for the past 20 hours. The flashing point on the right of the display is the point for the last measurement. The following shows how to interpret the data that appears on the barometric pressure graph.
A rising graph generally means improving weather.
A falling graph generally means deteriorating weather.
Note that if there are sudden changes in weather or temperature, the graph line of past measurements may run off the top or bottom of the display. The entire graph will become visible once barometric conditions stabilize. The following conditions cause the barometric pressure measurement to be skipped, with the corresponding point on the barometric pressure graph being left blank.

About Barometric Measurements
The barometer automatically takes measurements every two hours (starting from midnight), regardless of what mode you are in. The results of these measurements are used for the weather graphic, pressure tendency indicator, and barometric pressure graph.
Barometric pressure measurements are also taken every five seconds for three minutes after you enter the Barometer Mode. After that, the measurements are taken every five minutes. The results of these measurements are used to produce the numeric barometric pressure values that appear on the display.
You can also perform a barometric pressure measurement at any time by pressing D in the Barometer Mode. A manual measurement updates the barometric pressure value on the display.
You can change the measured barometric pressure unit between hecto­pascals/millibars (hPa mb) and inchesHg (inHg). See “Changing the Barometric Pressure Units” for details.
Some countries refer to the barometric pressure unit hecto-pascal (hPa) as millibars (mb). It really makes no difference, because 1hPa = 1mb. In this manual, we use hPa/mb or hPa (mb).
Sudden temperature changes can affect pressure sensor readings.
Attaching the watch to or removing it from your wrist causes a sudden
change in watch temperature, which can result in incorrect indications by the weather graphic and pressure tendency indicator.
ALTIMETER
A built-in altimeter uses a pressure sensor to detect the current air pressure, which is then used to estimate the current altitude. The watch is pre­programmed with ISA (International Standard Atmosphere) preset values, which are used to convert air pressure readings to altitude values. You should remember, however, that conversion values are based on ideal conditions. The air pressure readings taken by the watch are also affected by weather, temperature, and other factors, beside altitude. To overcome this, you can set
reference altitude
a make the necessary adjustments for non-altitude factors.
How the Altimeter Mode Works
With the Preset Values (No Reference Altitude)
The watch measures the air pressure at your current location and uses the built-in ISA values to convert it to the equivalent altitude.
With a Reference Altitude
After you set the reference altitude, the watch adjusts its air pressure to altitude conversion calculation accordingly.
To determine the height of a tall building, set the reference altitude to 0 on the ground floor. Note, however, that you may not be able to get a good reading if the building is pressurized or air conditioned.
When mountain climbing, you can set the reference value in accordance with a marker along the way or altitude information from a map. After you do this, the altitude readings produced by the watch will be more accurate than they would without a reference altitude.
Note that the following conditions will prevent you from obtaining accurate readings:
When air pressure changes because of changes in the weather Extreme temperature changes When the watch itself is subjected to strong impact

About the Altitude Graph
The altitude graph shows the results of altitude measurement readings taken every two hours. The value of each dot on the graph is equivalent to the difference between the highest altitude and lowest altitude measured divided by 9.
The flashing dots at the far right of the graph indicate the most recent measurement.
On the altitude graph, the highest altitude measured is shown with nine dots, while the lowest altitude is shown with one dot.

Generally, air pressure and temperature decrease as altitude increases. This watch bases its altitude measurements on International Standard Atmosphere (ISA) values stipulated by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). These values define relationships between altitude, air pressure, and temperature.

There are two standard methods of expressing altitude: Absolute altitude and relative altitude. Absolute altitude expresses an absolute height above sea level. Relative altitude expresses the difference between the height of two different places.
Important!
This watch estimates altitude based on air pressure. This means that altitude readings for the same location may vary if air pressure changes.
This watch employs a semiconductor pressure sensor, which is affected by temperature changes. When taking altitude measurements, be sure to do so while ensuring that the watch is not exposed to temperature changes.
Do not rely upon this watch for altitude measurements or perform button operations while engaging in sports where there are sudden altitude changes, while sky diving, hang gliding, or paragliding, or while riding a gyrocopter, glider, or any other aircraft.
Do not use this watch for measuring altitude in applications that demand professional or industrial level precision.

Important!
Should a sensor malfunction, the watch beeps for about three seconds to alert you.
If a sensor malfunctions or if battery power is low when it comes time for a measurement to be taken, the measurement value appears as display. In the case of barometric pressure measurement, the corresponding point on the barometric pressure graph is left blank.
There may be cases where the batteries) message is cleared once you change modes. In this case, you can continue using the watch normally unless the error warning message reappears.
Whenever there is a sensor malfunction, be sure to take the watch to an authorized CASIO distributor or service provider as soon as possible. If the appearance of the temperature, the message should clear from the display when normal temperature returns. It is recommended, however, that you still have the watch checked by an authorized CASIO distributor or service provider.

Backlight Precautions
The electro-luminescent (EL) panel loses illuminating power after very long use.
The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.
The watch will emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. It does not indicate malfunction of the watch.
The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
Auto light switch precautions
Avoid wearing the watch on the inside of your wrist while the auto light switch feature is turned on. Doing so causes the auto light switch to operate when it is not needed, which shortens battery life. If you want to wear the watch on the inside of your wrist, turn off the auto light switch feature.
The backlight turns off in about two seconds, even if you keep the watch pointed towards your face.
The backlight may not light if the face of the watch is more than 15 degrees off the parallel as shown below. Make sure that the back of your hand is parallel to the ground.

More than 15 degrees too high
More than 15 degrees too low
Precautions Concerning Simultaneous Measurement of Altitude and Temperature
Though you can perform altitude and temperature measurements at the same time, you should remember that each of these measurements require different conditions for best results. With temperature measurement, it is best to remove the watch from your wrist in order to eliminate the effects of body heat. In the case of altitude measurement, on the other hand, it is better to leave the watch on your wrist, because doing so keeps the watch at a constant temperature, which contributes to more accurate altitude measurements. The following describes what you should do to give priority to either altitude or temperature.
To give altitude measurement priority, leave the watch on your wrist or in any other location where the temperature of the watch is kept constant.
To give temperature measurement priority, remove the watch from your wrist and allow it to hand freely from your bag or in another location where it is not exposed to direct sunlight. Note that removing the watch from your wrist can momentarily affect pressure sensor readings.
Static electricity or magnetic force can interfere with proper operation of the auto light switch. If the backlight does not light, try moving the watch back to the starting position (parallel with the ground) and then tilt it back toward you again. If this does not work, drop your arm all the way down so it hangs at your side, and then bring it back up again.
Under certain conditions the backlight may not light until about one second or less after turn the face of the watch towards you. This does not necessarily indicate malfunction of the backlight.
