Time Calibration Signal Reception

There are two different methods you can use to receive the time calibration signal: auto receive and manual receive.

• Auto Receive

With auto receive, the watch automatically picks up the time calibration signal five times a day at 0:00 a.m., 1:00 a.m., 2:00 a.m., 3:00 a.m., and 4:00 a.m. For more information, see “About Auto Receive”.

• Manual Receive

Manual receive lets you start time calibration signal reception with the press of a button. For more information, see “To perform manual receive”.

Important!

• When getting ready to receive the time calibration signal, position the watch as shown in the nearby illustration, with its 12 o’clock side facing towards a window. This watch is designed to receive a time calibration signal late at night. Because of this, you should place the watch near a window as shown in the illustration when you take it off at night. Make sure there are no metal objects nearby.

600 miles

• Under good reception conditions, signal reception is possible within a radius of about 2,000 miles (3,000 kilometers) from the Fort Collins transmitter.

• At distances further than about 600 miles (1,000 kilometers) from the Fort Collins transmitter, signal reception may not be possible during certain times of year or times of day. Radio interferance may also cause problems with reception.

• At distances further than about 500 kilometers from the Fukushima and Fukuoka/ Saga transmitter, signal reception may not be possible during certain times of year or times of day. Radio interferance may also cause problems with reception.

• Even when the watch is within the reception range of the transmitter, signal reception will be impossible if the signal is blocked by mountains or other geological formations between the watch and signal source.

• Signal reception is affected by weather, atmospheric conditions, and seasonal changes.

• See the information under “Signal Reception Troubleshooting” if you experience

problems with time calibration signal reception.

About Auto Receive

When auto receive is turned on, the watch automatically starts to receive the time calibration signal when the time in the Timekeeping Mode reaches 0:00 a.m., 1:00 a.m., 2:00 a.m., 3:00 a.m., and 4:00 a.m. each day (calibration times). The watch will also perform an additional auto receive at 5:00 a.m. if none of the regularly scheduled auto receive are successful.

Note

• Auto receive is performed only if the watch is in the Timekeeping Mode or World Time Mode when one of the calibration times is reached. It is not performed if a calibration time is reached while an alarm is sounding, or while you are configuring settings (while settings are flashing on the display).

• When a reception starts, the second hand will move at high speed to the 12 o’clock position where it will stop until the reception is complete.

• Auto receipt of the calibration signal is designed to be performed early in the morning, while you sleep (provided that the Timekeeping Mode time is set correctly). Before going to bed for the night, remove the watch from your wrist, and put it in a location where it can easily receive the signal.

ANC

**, SEL*, HKG*

, you can specify either 40kHz or 60kHz.

TYO

• When auto receive is turned on, the watch receives the calibration signal for two to seven minutes everyday when the time in the Timekeeping Mode reaches each of the five calibration times. Do not perform any button operation within seven minutes before or after any of the five calibration times. Doing so can interfere with correct calibration.

• Remember that reception of the calibration signal depends on the time kept in the digital display. The reception will be performed whenever the display shows one of the five calibration times, regardless of whether or not the displayed time is actually the correct time.

• When two, three, four, or five receptions are successful, the watch uses the data of the last reception for calibration. When only one reception is successful, the watch uses the data of the successful reception.

About the Receiving Indicator

The receiving indicator shows the strength of the calibration signal being received. For best reception, be sure to keep the watch in a location where signal strength is strongest.

Receiving indicator

Weak

(Level 1)

• Even in an area where signal strength is strong, it takes about 10 seconds for signal reception to stabilize enough for the receiving indicator to indicate signal strength.

• Use the receiving indicator as a guide for checking signal strength and for finding the best location for the watch during signal reception.

• The Level 4 receiving indicator appears on the Timekeeping Mode’s Receiving Indicator and Seconds Count screen only. The Level 4 receiving indicator is not displayed if signal reception was unsuccessful or after manual adjustment of the current time setting.

• The Level 4 receiving indicator indicates that at least one of the five calibration signal reception was successful. Note, however, that the Level 4 receiving indicator is cleared from the display at 3:00 a.m. each day.

To perform manual receive

Power Supply

This watch is equipped with a solar cell and a special rechargeable battery (secondary battery) that is charged by the electrical power produced by the solar cell. The illustration shown below shows how you should position the watch for charging.

Example: Orient the watch so its face

is pointing at a light source.

• The illustration shows how to position a watch with a resin band.

• Note that charging efficiency drops when any part of the solar cell is blocked by clothing, etc.

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

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 exposed to bright light whenever possible.

• This watch uses a special rechargeable battery to store power produced by the solar cell, so regular battery replacement is not required. However, after very long use, the rechargeable battery may lose its ability to achieve a full charge. If you experience problems getting the special rechargeable battery to charge fully, contact your dealer or CASIO distributor about having it replaced.

• Never try to remove or replace the watch’s special battery yourself. Use of the wrong type of battery can damage the watch.

• The current time and all other settings return to their initial factory defaults whenever battery power drops to Level 4 and when you have the battery 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 battery from going dead.

• At Level 4, all functions are disabled and settings return to their initial factory defaults. Functions are enabled once again after the rechargeable battery is charged, but you need to set the time and date, after the battery reaches Level 2 after dropping to Level 4.

• The Home City reverts to to receive the Japanese time calibration signal, whenever battery power drops to Level 4. If you are using the watch in North America, you will need to configure your Home City code setting whenever battery power recovers after dropping to Level 4.

• Leaving the watch in direct sunlight or some other very strong light source can cause the battery level indicator to temporarily show a reading that is higher than the actual battery level. The correct battery level indicator should appear after a few minutes.

Recover indicator

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 battery. 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 battery 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

• Under direct sunlight

Charging Guide

After a full charge, timekeeping remains enabled for up to about 5 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.

Daylight Saving Time (DST)

Daylight Saving Time (summer time) advances the time setting by one hour from Standard Time. Remember that not all countries or even local areas use Daylight Saving Time. The time calibration signal transmitted from Fort Collins includes both Standard Time and DST data. When the Auto DST setting is turned on, the watch switches between Standard Time and DST (summer time) automatically in accordance with the Fort Collins signal.

• The time calibration signals transmitted from Fukushima and Fukuoka/Saga do not include summer time data.

• The default DST setting is Auto DST (

DEN, CHI, NYC, TYO, SEL, or HKG as your Home City code.

• If you experience problems receiving the time calibration signal in your area, it is probably best to switch between Standard Time and Daylight Saving Time (summer time) manually.

To change the Daylight Saving Time (summer time) setting

1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down A until the transmitter indicator starts to

flash, which indicates the setting screen.

2. Press C twice and the DST setting screen appears.

3. Use D to cycle through the DST settings in the sequence shown below.

4. When the setting you want is selected, press A twice to exit the setting screen.

• The DST indicator appears on the display to indicate that Daylight Saving Time is turned on.

Analog Timekeeping

The analog time of this watch is synchronized with the digital time. The analog time setting is adjusted automatically whenever you change the digital time.

Note

• The hands for the analog timepiece move to adjust to a new setting whenever any of the following occurs.

• If the analog time does not match the digital time for any reason, use the procedure described under “To adjust the analog time” to match the analog setting to the digital setting.

• Whenever you need to adjust both the digital and the analog time settings manually, make sure you adjust the digital setting first.

• Depending on how much the hands have to move in order to adjust to the digital time, it may take some time before they stop moving.

Radio-controlled Atomic Timekeeping Precautions

• Strong electrostatic charge can result in the wrong time being set.

• The time calibration signal bounces off the ionosphere. Because of this, such factors

as changes in the reflectivity of the ionosphere, as well as movement of the ionosphere to higher altitudes due to seasonal atmospheric changes or the time of day may change the reception range of the signal and make reception temporarily impossible.

• Even if the time calibration signal is received properly, certain conditions can cause the time setting to be off by up to one second.

• The current time setting in accordance with the time calibration signal takes priority over any time settings you make manually.

• The watch is designed to automatically update the date and day of the week for the period January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2099. Setting of the date by the time calibration signal cannot be performed starting from January 1, 2100.

• This watch can receive signals that differentiate between leap years and non-leap years.

• Though this watch is designed to receive both time data (hour, minutes, seconds) and date data (year, month, day), certain signal conditions can limit reception to time data only.

• Normally, the signal reception date shown by the last signal screen is the date data included in the received time calibration signal. When only time data is received, however, the last signal screen shows the date as kept in the Timekeeping Mode at the time of signal reception.

• If you are in an area where proper time calibration signal reception is impossible, the watch keeps time within ±15 seconds a month at normal temperature.

• If you have problems with proper time calibration signal reception or if the time setting is wrong after signal reception, check your current city code, DST (summer time), and auto receive settings. The following are the initial factory defaults for these settings.

• The second hand will advance at high speed to the correct position in accordance

with seconds count of the digital time, and resume normal movement from there.

Timekeeping

• Resetting the seconds to 00 while the current count is in the range of 30 to 59 causes the minutes to be increased by 1. In the range of 00 to 29, the seconds are reset to 00

without changing the minutes.

• The day of the week is automatically displayed in accordance with the date (year, month, and day) settings.

• The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2099.

• The watch’s built-in full automatic calendar makes allowances for different month

lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no reason to change it except after you have the watch’s battery replaced or when battery level drops to Level 4.

• The current time for all city codes in the Timekeeping Mode and World Time Mode is calculated in accordance with the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) differential for each city, based on your Home City time setting.

• GMT differential is calculated by this watch based on Universal Time Coordinated (UTC*) data.

* UTC is the world-wide scientific standard of timekeeping. It is based upon carefully

maintained atomic (cesium) clocks that keep time accurately to within microseconds. Leap seconds are added or subtracted as necessary to keep UTC in sync with the Earth’s rotation. The reference point for UTC is Greenwich, England.

12-hour/24-hour Timekeeping Formats

The 12-hour/24-hour timekeeping format you select in the Timekeeping Mode is also applied in all other modes.

• With the 12-hour format, the P (PM) indicator appears on the display for times in the range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and no indicator appears for times in the range of midnight to 11:59 a.m.

• With the 24-hour format, times are displayed in the range of 0:00 to 23:59 without any indicator.

Illumination Precautions

•

The illumination provided by the light may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.

• Illumination automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.

• Frequent use of illumination shortens the battery operating time.
