• 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.

• 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.

• The watch continues to operate, even when it is not exposed to light. Leaving the watch in the dark can cause the battery to run down, which will result in some watch functions to be disabled. If the battery goes dead, you will have to re-configure watch settings after recharging. To ensure normal watch operation, be sure to keep it exposed to light as much as possible.

Solar cell

• The actual level at which some functions are disabled depends on the watch model.

• Frequent display illumination can run down the battery quickly and require charging.

• Be sure to read “Power Supply” (page E-41) for important information you

need to know when exposing the watch to bright light.

If the display of the watch is blank...

If the display of the watch is blank, it means that the watch’s Power Saving function has turned off the display to conserve power.

• See “Power Saving Function” (page E-59) for more information.

The electricity generated by the solar cell of the watch is stored by a rechargeable 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 pointed at a source of bright light.

• You should try to keep the watch outside of your sleeve as much as possible. Charging is reduced significantly if the face is covered only partially.

Tide/Moon Data

In the Tide/Moon Data Mode, you can see the tide for the tide site you selected at specified time and the current date’s moon phase for your Home City. You can specify a date and view tide and moon data for that date.

• See “Moon Phase Indicator” (page E-52) for information about the moon phase indicator and “Tide Graph” (page E-56) for infor mation about the tide graph.

• All of the operations in this section are performed in the Tide/Moon Data Mode (page E-8).

Note

• It takes about two seconds to calculate tide graph data. You will not be able to display a setting screen while data calculation is in progress.

• Moon age is calculated to an accuracy of ±1 day.

• You can view the current tide and moon age graph in the Timekeeping Mode (page

E-10).

Tide Data

The Tide Graph that appears first when you enter the Tide/Moon Data Mode shows the data at 6:00 a.m. for your currently selected tide site on the current date, according to the Timekeeping Mode. From there you can specify another time on the same date.

•

If the tide data is not correct, check your Timekeeping Mode settings and correct them if necessary. See “To configure tide site settings” (page E-49) for more information.

• If you feel that the information shown by the Tide Graph is different from actual tide conditions, you need to adjust the high tide time. See “Adjusting the High Tide Time” (page E-19) for more information.

Moon Data

The moon phase and moon age information that appears first when you enter the Tide/Moon Data Mode shows the data at noon for your currently selected Home City on the current date, according to the Timekeeping Mode. After that you can specify another date to view data.

• If the moon data is not correct, check your Timekeeping Mode settings and correct them if necessary.

• If the moon phase indicator shows a phase that is a mirror image of the actual moon phase in your area, you can use the procedure under “Reversing the Displayed Moon Phase” (page E-21) to change it.

• When you display the Tide Data Screen, it initially shows tide data for 6:00 a.m.

• Use the Tide Data Screen to specify the Tide Data time. You can use D to change

the displayed time in one-hour increments. The Tide Data time is scrolled within the current date only. Scrolling past midnight does not change the date.

• Use the Moon Data Screen to specify the Tide/Moon Data date. You can use D to change the displayed date in one-day increments. Pressing D will display the year of the displayed date.

Adjusting the High Tide Time

Use the following procedure to adjust the high tide time within a particular date. You can find out high tide information for your area from a tide table, the Internet, or your local newspaper.

To view the time in another city

While in the World Time Mode, press D (eastward) to scroll through the city codes (time zones).

• Pressing the D and B at the same time will jump to the UTC time zone.

• On some days, there are two high tides. With this watch, you can adjust the first high

tide time only. The second high tide time for that day is adjusted automatically based on the first high tide time.

Reversing the Displayed Moon Phase

The left-right (east-west) appearance of the Moon depends on whether the Moon is north of you (northerly view) or south of you (southerly view) as you view it. You can use the procedure below to reverse the displayed Moon phase so it matches the actual appearance of the Moon where you are located.

• To determine the viewing direction of the Moon, use a compass to take a direction reading of the Moon at its meridian passage.

• For information about the Moon phase indicator, see “Moon Phase Indicator” (page E-52).
