Important!
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.
Turn on the watch’s Power Saving function (page E-13) and keep it in an area normally exposed to bright
light when storing it for long periods. This helps to ensure that power does not run down.
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 power to run down. Expose the watch to bright light whenever possible.
Power Levels
You can get an idea of the watch’s power level by observing the battery power indicator on the display.

Charging the Watch
The face of the watch is a solar panel that generates power from light. The generated power charges a built-in rechargeable battery, which powers watch operations. The watch charges whenever it is exposed to light.
Charging Guide
Whenever you are not wearing the watch, leave it in a location where it is exposed to light.
Best charging performance is
achieved by exposing the watch to the strongest light available.
Warning! Leaving the watch in bright light for charging 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.

Display indicators reappear as soon as the battery is charged from Level 5 to Level 2 (M).
Leaving the watch exposed to direct sunlight or some other very strong light source can cause the
battery power indicator to show a reading temporarily that is higher than the actual battery level. The correct battery level should be indicated after a few minutes.
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 5 and when you have the battery replaced.
Power Recovery Mode
Performing multiple sensor, illumination, or beeper operations during a short period may cause all of
the battery power indicators (H, M, and L) to start fl ashing on the display. This indicates that the watch is in the power recovery mode. Illumination, alarm, countdown timer alarm, hourly time signal, and sensor operations will be disabled until battery power recovers.
Battery power will recover in about 15 minutes. At this time, the battery power indicators (H, M, L) will

Radio Controlled Atomic Timekeeping
This watch receives a time calibration signal and updates its time setting accordingly. However, when using the watch outside of areas covered by time calibration signals, you will have to adjust the settings manually as required. See “Confi guring Current Time and Date Settings Manually” (page E-32) for more information. This section explains how the watch updates its time settings when the city code selected as the Home City is in Japan, North America, Europe, or China, and is one that supports time calibration signal reception.
If your Home City Code setting is this:
LIS, LON, MAD, PAR, ROM, BER, STO, ATH, MOW Anthorn (England), Mainfl ingen (Germany)

Power Saving
When turned on, Power Saving enters a sleep state automatically whenever the watch is left for a certain period in an area where it is dark. The table below shows how watch functions are affected by Power Saving.
For information about enabling and disabling power saving, see “To enable or disable Power Saving”
(page E-111).
There actually are two sleep state levels: “display sleep” and “function sleep”.

The watch will not enter a sleep state between 6:00 AM and 9:59 PM. If the watch is already in a sleep
state when 6:00 AM arrives, however, it will remain in the sleep state.
The watch will not enter a sleep state while it is in the Stopwatch Mode, Countdown Timer Mode, or
Diving Mode.
To recover from the sleep state
Move the watch to a well-lit area, press any button, or angle the watch towards your face for reading (page E-107).

Operation Guide 3445
Even when the watch is within range of a transmitter, signal reception may be impossible due to the
effects of geographic contours, structures, weather, the time of year, the time of day, radio interference, etc. The signal becomes weaker at distances of approximately 500 kilometers, which means that the infl
uence of the conditions listed above becomes even greater.
Signal reception may not be possible at the distances noted below during certain times of the year or
day. Radio interference may also cause problems with reception.

Using the Diving Functions
Entering the Diving Mode and starting a dive causes the watch to create a log record, and start measuring and recording dive time, water depth, and water temperature automatically. After a dive is complete, the watch also displays the surface time.
Important!
Charge the battery to at least Level 2 before using it for diving.
Before diving, enter the Diving Mode while on a boat or in another location outside the water.
Even if a sensor reading operation results in an error, the current time and dive time will continue to be
displayed.
Low battery power will cause sensor operations to be disabled, but the current time and dive time will
continue to be displayed.
Note
For details about the type of data that is measured and measuring ranges, see “Diving Function

Operation Guide 3445
Surface Time Measurement
For repeat diving, your watch has function that automatically measures the time that elapses after a dive ends as surface time. Surface time is measured for up to 48 hours after a dive ends. If you perform a repeat dive while the surface time measurement operation is in progress, the measurement operation will be restarted from after the end of the new dive.
Surface Time Measurement Example

If you start a dive without entering the Diving Mode and then enter the Diving Mode at a depth greater than 1.5 meters, the current depth will be displayed using the standard atmosphere 1,013 hPa as the 0-meter depth.
Since the water surface is not measured as 0 meters, there is large
error between the measured depth and the actual depth.
At this time, a warning mark (
In this case, measurement starts at a depth of 1.5 meters or greater, so

Useful Functions
To reset 0-meter depth manually
Important!
This function is disabled at depths greater than 1.5 meters in order to avoid operation error.
Normally, the watch uses the barometric pressure it detects immediately after you enter the Diving Mode as the 0-meter depth. If you enter the Diving Mode while in the water (which will result in a wrong auto 0-meter setting), you can use manual 0-meter reset to correct the setting.

Dive End
At the end of a dive, surfacing for the fi nal time (immediately before switching to the Timekeeping Mode) from a depth of 1.5 meters or greater to a depth of 1.4 meters or less (displayed as 0.0 meters) is regarded as the dive end time.
The dive end time is not recorded.
Dive Time
The dive time displayed by the watch is defi greater following the start of a dive. Resuming a dive (successive dive) within 10 minutes of elapsed surface time is treated as a continuation of the current dive session and its time is added on to the dive time. Refer to the nearby illustration for details (page E-45).
Important!
Once you enter the Diving Mode, everything measured is considered as part of the same dive until you
enter the Timekeeping Mode again.
To have a subsequent dive recorded in a separate log record, enter the Timekeeping Mode and then

A sensor error occurs, indicated by display of other force damages a sensor, causes faulty sensor connection, etc.
Water depth sensor error
If a sensor error occurs, do not use the watch for diving and contact an authorized CASIO service center as soon as possible for repair.
E-48
High-altitude and fresh water diving
When you enter the Diving Mode, the watch automatically sets ambient pressure as the 0-meter depth (0-meter reset). This means you can use the watch even when diving in a lake at a high altitude. At a high altitude that exceeds 5,000 meters (Barometric Pressure: 530 hPa or less), indicating that measurement is not possible. Note that the watch displays water depth that is converted to seawater depth (Specifi c Gravity: 1.025). Because of this, your depth when diving in fresh water is actually about 2.5% deeper than the depth displayed by the watch.
Example
Displayed depth: 20 meters × 1.025 = 20.5 (actual depth)
The watch’s ascent rate alarm is triggered by ascent of 10 meters per minute or greater. Note that the trigger rate is for seawater diving.
Notice that the higher the altitude you dive at, the lower the barometric pressure compared to that at sea level. This means that there is a greater risk of decompression sickness and other problems than at sea level. Also note that you should engage in high-altitude and fresh water diving only after completing applicable special training.
Even if an error occurs, dive time measurement will continue if it is

E-50
) indicates that some problem has occurred in the Diving Mode. Log data produced
) fl ashes on the display, refer to page E-62.
Precautions During Use
Extreme ambient temperature changes
Your watch measures pressure using a precision pressure sensor. Temperature extremes due to the
causes below while using it can make proper measurement impossible. – Leaving the watch in direct sunlight – Leaving the watch inside a vehicle parked in the sun
In such cases, leave the watch in the water for two to three minutes to acclimate before using it. A sudden change in temperature while you are using the watch for diving may cause a depth value of 0.1
to 0.3 meters to be displayed while you are on the water surface, or may cause a negative depth error. If a measurement error occurs, refer to page E-47.
The operating temperature range (accuracy guaranteed) for the watch’s water depth sensor and
temperature sensor is –10°C to 60°C. The operating temperature range (accuracy guaranteed) for the watch’s direction sensor is 10°C to 40°C. Using this watch while ice diving or for other applications that will cause its allowable operating temperature ranges to be exceeded can cause measurement error and/or operation error.
Extreme depth fl uctuations
Your watch measures water depth in approximately one-second intervals and displays the result. A sudden change in water depth can cause the displayed depth to be different from the actual depth. In addition, a slow surfacing rate no greater than 10 meters per minute is recommended in the case of sports diving in order to avoid trouble due to lung squeeze, lung problems, the risk of decompression sickness, and other dangerous problems.
E-49
2. What happens if the watch battery goes dead during a dive?
The H, M, and L marks will fl ash on the display to indicate a battery error. If this happens during a dive, the dive time measurement and the current timekeeping will continue, but water depth measurement, water temperature measurement, and direction detection operations will be disabled. Also note that log data stored before the battery error will be retained, but there will be no log data recorded following the error.
3. Why does data recording start as soon as I enter the water?
Forcefully entering the water can cause you to reach a depth of 1.5 meters or greater immediately after entry, which will cause data recording to start. If you surface to 1.4 meters or less, dive time measurement will pause. Then when you resume your dive, dive time measurement will restart.
4. What should I do if log memory becomes full?
Log memory has a maximum capacity of 20 log records. If log memory already has 20 log records, recording a new log record in the Diving Mode will automatically delete the oldest log record to make room for the new one.
5. What is the maximum water depth that can be measured?
Water depth can be measured up to 80 meters. Exceeding a depth of 80 meters causes on the display. Normal display of the water depth value will resume after you return to a depth of 80 meters or less. In the above case, the maximum depth log data will also show

7. What is the maximum dive time that can be measured?
A dive time of up to six hours can be measured for a single log data record. The watch will return to the Timekeeping Mode if the dive time exceeds six hours. If this happens, log data up to six hours is recorded in memory.
8. In the case of successive diving and repeat diving, how does the watch determine where one dive starts and another dive ends?
The watch applies the criteria below when you return to the water surface (depth of 1.4 meters or less) at the end of a dive.
Successive diving If you resume your dive (to a depth of 1.5 meters or greater) before 10
Repeat diving Hold down C for about three seconds to enter the Timekeeping Mode. (The
9. Can I operate buttons while under water?
The buttons of the watch can be operated while submerged. L turns on illumination, A displays water temperature, D takes a direction reading, and B registers a time stamp.
10. What happens if I forgot to enter the Diving Mode before starting a dive?
If you enter the water and then enter the Diving Mode while under water (at a depth of 1.5 meters or less), the watch will not be able to perform 0-meter reset correctly, which will cause a dive measurement start error (page E-42). The warning mark ( point when the Diving Mode is entered. Water depth measurement and log data recording will be performed, but it should be remembered that data in this case is unreliable.
E-52
15. Are there any precautions when taking the watch on an airplane?
Entering the Diving Mode while fl ying will display a depth value based on your current surrounding air pressure, which will cause the watch to mistakenly interpret that you are currently under water. While diving, the watch will not return to the Timekeeping Mode if you hold down C for about three seconds. This is a safety feature to avoid accidental switching to the Timekeeping Mode from the Diving Mode during a dive. If you are not diving, you can override the safety feature by holding down C for about 10 seconds to force the watch to return to the Timekeeping Mode. It is important to note, however, that you should never use this override operation while diving.
16. Does this watch support saturation diving?
No. Never use this watch while saturation diving. Doing so creates the risk of accident and damage to the watch.
17. What should I do if the watch detects abnormal magnetism during a bearing reading operation,
which is indicated by the fl ashing fi gures in the illustration below?

watch will also return to the Timekeeping Mode automatically if the surface time exceeds 10 minutes.) Now if you re-enter the Diving Mode, a separate log record will be started.
) will fl ash on the display, or dive time measurement will start from the
Move away from any potential source of strong magnetism and try taking a reading again. If abnormal magnetism is detected again when you retry, it could mean that the watch itself has become magnetized. If this happens, continue to keep away from the source of strong magnetism, perform fi gure 8 or 3-point calibration, and then try taking a reading again. See “To perform figure 8 calibration” (page E-70), “To perform 3-point calibration” (page E-72), and “Location” (page E-78).
11. What happens to log data and/or surface time measurement if I change the current time or date setting?
Log data and/or surface time measurement is unaffected if you change the current time or date setting.
12. What happens if I use display illumination too much while diving?
Overuse of illumination, the compass, or other functions that require high power can cause a battery error, which will limit further availability of illumination and sensors. When a battery error occurs, the display will continually show only the current time and dive time (up to six hours).
13. How can I maximize operation provided by a battery charge?
A pressure sensor is activated while the watch is in the Diving Mode, which means that the Diving Mode consumes large amounts of power. Frequent use of the Diving Mode will shorten the life between charges of the chargeable battery. To maximize battery life, be sure to enter the Diving Mode just before you are ready to dive, and exit it as soon as possible after completing the dive.
14. Can I use the watch for high-altitude diving?
When you enter the Diving Mode, the watch automatically sets ambient pressure as the 0-meter depth (0-meter reset). This means you can use the watch even when diving in a lake at a high altitude. At a high altitude that exceeds 5,000 meters (Barometric Pressure: 530 hPa or less), display indicating that measurement is not possible. Note that depth values displayed by this watch are based on seawater depth (Specifi c Gravity: 1.025), and that your depth when diving in fresh water is actually 2.5% deeper than the displayed depth.
Fresh water depth = Displayed Depth × 1.025 The watch’s ascent rate alarm is triggered by ascent of 10 meters per minute or greater. Note that the trigger rate is for seawater diving. Notice that the higher the altitude you dive at, the lower the barometric pressure compared to that at sea level. This means that there is a greater risk of decompression sickness and other problems than at sea level. Make sure that you complete the special applicable training before diving at high altitude or in fresh water.
Ascent Rate Alarm
The ascent rate alarm displays a fl ashing warning whenever you ascend from a scuba dive (using a self-contained underwater breathing apparatus) at a rate of 10 meters per minute or faster.
The rate of ascent is a general rule of thumb that indicates the speed at which excessive bubble
formation is avoided.
Breaking this general rule of ascent can lead to decompression sickness. Because of this, the ascent
rate alarm of the watch cannot be disabled by you.
Note that 10 meters per minute is ascent rate setting for diving in seawater, not fresh water.
Notice that the higher the altitude you dive at, the lower the barometric pressure compared to that at sea level. This means that there is a greater risk of decompression sickness and other problems than at sea level.
Important!
Your watch is not a precision measuring instrument. The alarm function is intended for general
reference only. Be sure to use this watch together with special-purpose equipment.

Taking Direction Readings
You can use the digital compass to determine the direction to a specifi c objective, as well as your current position.
For information about what you can do to improve digital compass reading accuracy, see “Calibrating
the Bearing Sensor” (page E-68) and “Digital Compass Precautions” (page E-77).
To take a direction reading
You can enable a Digital Compass auto level correction function if you are having diffi watch correctly while diving. If it is, the angle value will show even if a bearing is measured, correct angle display is possible.
1. Make sure the watch is in the Timekeeping Mode.
2. Place the watch on a fl at surface. If you are wearing the watch, make sure that your wrist is horizontal
(in relation to the horizon).
3. Point the 12 o’clock position of the watch in the direction whose reading you want to take.
4. Press D to start.

Digital Compass Readings
To restart a reading operation from the beginning, press D.
The watch will return to the Timekeeping Mode after the reading operation (which takes about 60
seconds) is complete.
Pressing C while a reading operation is in progress will return to the Timekeeping Mode.
The auto light switch is disabled during the 60 seconds that digital compass readings are being taken.
Note that taking a direction reading while the watch is not horizontal (in relation to the horizon) can
result in large direction reading error.
You can calibrate the bearing sensor if you suspect the direction reading is incorrect.
Any ongoing direction reading operation is paused temporarily while the watch is performing an alert
operation (daily alarm, Hourly Time Signal, countdown timer alarm) or while illumination is turned on (by pressing L). The direction reading operation resumes for its remaining duration after the operation that caused it to pause is fi nished.
See “Digital Compass Precautions” (page E-77) for important information about taking direction readings.
Example of Compass Use Under Water
While diving where there is poor illumination, where there are no reference marks, or under other conditions where it is diffi cult to advance directly to an objective, there is the possibility that you may lose track of your current location or the direction from which you have come. Examples of using the Digital Compass Mode for underwater navigation is shown below. Before using the watch for such an application, be sure to complete applicable underwater navigation training.
E-66
A: Diving straight down and then straight back up
Diving Mode Screen
Desired bearing
12 o’clock
Bearing angle (°)
B: Diving in a rectangular pattern with 90° turns that take you back to your original starting point
Perform the same general steps as in example A, but each time you turn add (for a clockwise
rectangle) or subtract (for a counterclockwise rectangle) 90° at every turn.
Calibrating the Bearing Sensor
You should calibrate the bearing sensor whenever you feel that the direction readings being produced by the watch are off. You can use any one of three different bearing sensor calibration methods: fi gure 8 calibration or 3-point calibration or magnetic declination correction. You should perform calibration whenever direction readings produced by the watch do not match those of another reliable compass, and before setting off on a dive. Leave the watch on your wrist when performing fi gure 8 calibration. When performing 3-point calibration, remove the watch from your wrist.
E-68
1. With 12 o'clock of the watch pointed in the direction of your desired bearing, press D to display the bearing angle in degrees (°).
The watch conti nues to measure water depth even wh ile it is taking
a d
irection rea ding.
2. If the resulting desired bearing angle is 100°, for example, dive straight downwards as you keep the bearing angle reading around 100° and you count your number of fi n kicks.
3. After you reach your destination, prepare to return to your starting point by changing your bearing by 180°. This should make the return bearing angle your original desired bearing angle plus or minus 180°.
4. If, the return bearing angle is 280° (100°+180°) as in this example, dive straight as you keep the bearing angle reading around 280° for the required number of fi n kicks.
Underwater navigation
Example: Using your fi n kick count or some other means travel a specifi c distances as shown below
E-67
Important!
If the readings produced by the digital compass of this watch are different from those of the other
compass, perform fi gure 8 calibration or 3-point calibration of the digital compass to ensure more accurate readings. Accurate measurements and/or calibration will not be possible in an area exposed to strong magnetic force and indoors (especially inside reinforced concrete structure). In this case, moving outdoors, away from the source of magnetism for measurement and calibration is recommended.
Magnetic Declination Correction
With magnetic declination correction, you input a magnetic declination angle (difference between magnetic north and true north), which allows the watch to indicate true north. You can perform this procedure when the magnetic declination angle is indicated on the map you are using. Note that you can input the declination angle in whole degree units only, so you may need to round off the value specifi on the map. If your map indicates the declination angle as 7.4°, you should input 7°. In the case of 7.6° input 8°, for 7.5° you can input 7° or 8°.
Figure 8 calibration and 3-point calibration precautions
You can use any two opposing directions for fi gure 8 calibration and 3-point calibration. You must,
however, make sure that they are 180 degrees opposite each other. Remember that if you perform the procedure incorrectly, you will get wrong bearing sensor readings.
You should perform fi gure 8 calibration or 3-point calibration in an environment that is the same as that
where you plan to be taking direction readings. If you plan to take direction readings in an open fi for example, calibrate in an open fi eld.

The northerly direction can be expressed either as magnetic north or true north, which are different from each other. Also, it is important to keep in mind that magnetic north moves over time.
Magnetic north is the north that is indicated by the needle of a

True north, which is the location of the North Pole of the Earth’s axis, is
the north that is normally indicated on maps.
The difference between magnetic north and true north is called the

Thermometer Precautions
Air 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 all moisture from the case. It takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes for the case of the watch to reach the actual surrounding temperature.
Water Temperature Measurement Precautions
Your body temperature has almost no effect on water temperature measurements. However, sudden changes in water temperature can take up to about fi ve minutes to be refl ected in temperature readings by the watch.

The displayed temperature value changes to
range of –10.0°C to 60.0°C (14.0°F to 140.0°F). The temperature value will reappear as soon as the measured temperature is within the allowable range.
Display Units
You can select either Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F) for the displayed temperature value. See “To specify temperature and water depth display units” (page E-57).
Temperature Sensor Calibration
The temperature sensor built into the watch is calibrated at the factory and normally requires no further adjustment. If you notice serious errors in the temperature readings produced by the watch, you can calibrate the sensor to correct the errors.
Important!
Incorrectly calibrating the temperature sensor can result in incorrect readings.
Carefully read the following before doing anything. –
Compare the readings produced by the watch with those of another reliable and accurate thermometer.
– If adjustment is required, remove the watch from your wrist and wait for 20 or 30 minutes to give the
temperature of the watch time to stabilize.
Best temperature sensor calibration results are achieved when performed in water with a stable
temperature.

High tide
Low tide
Tide Graph readings are based on average values*.
If the Tide Graph hand indication is not correct, check the Timekeeping Mode time and date, and the
Home City settings. If this does not correct the problem, refer to “Calibrating the High Tide Time” (page E-102).
* The average tide graph uses a period of 12 hours 25 minutes from high tide to the next high tide,
assuming that low tide is between.
E-96
Moon Phases and Moon Age
The Moon goes through a regular 29.53-day cycle. During each cycle, the Moon appears to wax and wane as the relative positioning of the Earth, Moon, and Sun changes. The greater the angular distance between the Moon and the Sun,* the more we see illuminated.
* The angle to the Moon in relation to the direction at which the Sun is visible from the Earth.
See “Northern Hemisphere View or Southern Hemisphere View Moon Phase” (page E-104).
Your watch shows the Moon phase and Moon age at noon of a date, regardless of the time displayed
by the watch.
The Moon phase is based on the northern hemisphere view, with the Moon to the south. Note that the
Moon phase form will be reversed in the case of the southern hemisphere view (Moon to the north).
The margin for error of the Moon age is ±1 day.
The Tide Graph and Moon phase are displayed in the Timekeeping Mode and Tide/Moon Mode only.
If Moon phase indication is not correct, check the Timekeeping Mode time and date settings, and the
Home City setting.

or below parallel. Make sure that the back of your hand is parallel to the ground.
Illumination turns off after the preset illumination duration (page E-106), even if you keep
the watch pointed towards your face.
Static electricity or magnetic force can interfere with proper operation of the auto
light switch. If illumination does not turn on, try moving the watch back to the starting position (parallel with the ground) and then tilt it back towards your face 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.
You may notice a very faint clicking sound coming from the watch when it is shaken
back and forth. This sound is caused by mechanical operation of the auto light switch, and does not indicate a problem with the watch.

Troubleshooting
Diving Mode
The watch will not enter the Diving Mode.

or
will not enter the Diving Mode while it is in the charge recovery state.
This indicates that the reference pressure for setting the 0-meter depth is outside of the sensor’s allowable measuring range. If the high-altitude limit pressure is 530 hPa or lower, a water depth limit pressure is 9,500 hPa or greater, a
If you accidentally enter the Diving Mode while in an aircraft or any other vehicle where there are large changes in air pressure, the watch will interpret the current pressure as being underwater (depth of 1.5 meters or greater). In this condition, the watch will not return to the Timekeeping Mode.
If this happens, hold down C for about 10 seconds to force the watch to return to the Timekeeping
Important!
Do not use the above operation to force the watch into the Timekeeping Mode while diving.

Depth readings are incorrect.
When the watch enters the Diving Mode, it sets the current ambient pressure as 0 meters. Because of this, you should always enter the Diving Mode while on the water surface. If you entered the Diving Mode while under water, reset 0 meters on the water surface. Refer to “To reset 0-meter depth manually” (page E-41).
Especially during the summer months, direct sunlight can cause the watch to become abnormally hot. If this happens, leave the watch in the water for two to three minutes to acclimate before using it. See “Precautions During Use” (page E-49).
Subjecting the watch to strong shock can affect the accuracy of the depth measurements. If this happens immediately contact an authorized CASIO service center for inspection and sensor adjustment.
This watch displays sea water depth. Fresh water depth can be obtained by multiplying the displayed depth value by 1.025.
Log data is not being recorded.
Log data is recorded only while the watch is measuring a depth of 1.5 meters or less. Immediately after entering the Diving Mode, the watch measures water depth every 10 seconds. If you suddenly dive into the water from a boat or other location, measurement timing may cause a delay in the start of memory recording. When water depth is 0.3 meters or less, measurements are taken ever second. Because of this, it is recommended that, while on the water surface, you lower your wrist for about 10 seconds to start timing.
If a battery error occurs (indicated by the point that the error occurred will be recorded, but subsequent log data will not be recorded. For more information, refer to “Charging the Watch” (page E-9) and “Power Levels” (page E-10). If a sensor malfunction occurs, contact an authorized CASIO service center.

The depth reading does not show 0.0 meters, even when I am on the water surface.
If there is a major change in barometric pressure (due to weather) between the start of the dive and the
end of the dive, or if the barometric pressure on the water surface where the watch is being used is greater than the standard atmosphere, the water depth value may not return to 0.0 meters at the end of the dive.
Entering the Diving Mode while in the water (water pressure equivalent to a depth of 1.5 meters or less)
will cause a water depth of 0 meters to be displayed at the standard atmosphere of 1,013 hPa.
Display illumination will not light.
Frequent use of illumination over a short period will cause the recovery state) and disable illumination.
The watch may have been subjected to strong shock, causing malfunction of illumination. If this happens, contact an authorized CASIO service center.
Once you use illumination in the Diving Mode, it will become disabled until you complete your dive.

Move away from any potential source of strong magnetism and try taking a reading again.
If abnormal magnetism is detected again when you retry, it could mean that the watch itself has
become magnetized. If this happens, continue to keep away from the source of strong magnetism, perform fi
gure 8 calibration or 3-point calibration, and then try taking a reading again. See “To perform
fi gure 8 calibration” (page E-70), “To perform 3-point calibration” (page E-72), and “Location” (page E-78).
Whenever you have a sensor malfunction, take the watch to your original retailer or nearest authorized CASIO distributor as soon as possible.

When
(Tokyo) is selected as the Home City, the water depth unit is set automatically to meters (m)
and the temperature unit to Celsius (°C). These settings cannot be changed.
Temperature readings are incorrect.
Since the temperature sensor is inside the watch, temperatures displayed by the watch are watch body temperatures.
When measuring air temperature, readings can be affected if you are wearing the watch, by exposure
to direct sunlight, by water splashing onto the watch, etc. For accurate air temperature measurements, remove the watch from your wrist, wipe away any water on the watch, and place the watch in the shade in a well-ventilated location.
It takes about 20 to 30 minutes before the temperature of the watch becomes the same as the air
temperature.
When measuring water temperature, your body temperature has almost no effect on measurements.
However, sudden changes in water temperature can take up to about fi temperature readings by the watch.

and then try taking a reading again. For more information, refer to “To perform fi (page E-70), “To perform 3-point calibration” (page E-72) and “Location” (page E-78).
Direction readings produce different results at the same location.
Move away from any potential source of strong magnetism and try taking a reading again. See
“Location” (page E-78).
I am having problems taking direction readings indoors.
Indoors, strong and/or weak magnetic force and other factors can create a magnetic fi eld that cannot
exist in geomagnetism. Because of this, correct measurement may not be possible indoors. See “Location” (page E-78).
If the temperature displayed by the watch is very different from temperature readings by another reliable measuring device, you can adjust readings to correct for errors.
See “To calibrate the temperature sensor” (page E-94).
