Basic Operations

This section provides an overview of the watch and explains operations that are common to all modes.

Important!

●

This watch is not a special-purpose measuring instrument. Measurement function readings are intended for general reference only.

●

Whenever using the Digital Compass of this watch for serious trekking, activities, be sure to always take along another compass to confirm readings. If the readings produced by the Digital Compass of this watch are different from those of the other compass, perform bidirectional calibration of the Digital Compass to ensure better accuracy.

●

The watch’s Altimeter Mode calculates and displays relative altitude based on barometric pressure readings produced by its pressure sensor. Because of this, altitude values displayed by the watch may be different from your actual elevation and/or sea level elevation indicated for the area where you are located. Regular calibration in accordance with the local altitude (elevation) indications is recommended.

mountain climbing, or other

ー

Compass readings and calibration will not be possible if the watch is in the vicinity of a permanent magnet (magnetic accessory, etc.), metal objects, high-voltage wires, aerial wires, or electrical household appliances (TV, computer, cellphone, etc.)

Solar Charging

What is solar charging?

This watch runs on power supplied from a rechargeable (secondary) battery that is charged by a solar panel. The solar panel is integrated into the face of the watch, and power is generated whenever the face is exposed to light.

Charging the Watch

When you are not wearing the watch, put it in a location where it is exposed to bright light.

While you are wearing the watch, make sure that its face (solar panel) is not blocked from

light by the sleeve of your clothing. Power

the generation efficiency is reduced even when the face of the watch is blocked only partially.

Checking the Charge Level

A display indicator shows the watch’s charge level when you enter the Timekeeping Mode.

Altitude Measurement

The watch takes altitude readings and displays results based on air pressure measurements taken by a built-in pressure sensor.

Important!

●

The altitude readings displayed by the

watch are relative values that are calculated based on barometric pressure measured by the watch’s pressure sensor. This means that barometric pressure changes due to weather can cause altitude readings taken at the same location to be different. Also note that the value displayed by the watch may be different from the actual elevation and/or sea level elevation indicated for the area where you are located. When using the watch’s altimeter while mountain climbing, it is recommended that you regularly calibrate its readings in accordance with local altitude (elevation) indications.

Calibrating Altitude Readings

●

The altitude calibration value and barometric pressure changes may result in display of a negative value.

●

Check the information below to find out about how to minimize differences between readings produced by the watch, and values provided indications.

from signs, maps, on the Internet, etc. While mountain climbing, it is highly recommended that you check a map, local altitude indications, or some other source for your current location’s altitude and regularly calibrate watch readings with the latest information.

●

Differences between actual altitude and watch readings can be caused by the factors below.

ー

Changes in barometric pressure

ー

Changes in temperature caused by variations in barometric pressure and by elevation

●

Though altitude readings can be taken without calibration, doing so may produce readings that are very different from indications by altitude markers, etc.

Pull out the crown.

Rotate the crown to calibrate the

displayed value to that of a local altitude (elevation) marker.

Calibration unit: 1 m (5 feet)

●

return the altitude setting to its initial

To factory default, press (A) and (C) at the same time.

Push the crown back in to complete the

setting operation.

Taking a Relative Altitude Reading from Some Reference Point

After you set a reference altitude, the second hand of the watch will indicate the difference between your current altitude and the reference altitude. This makes it easy to measure the altitude different between two points while climbing or trekking.

The signal receive operation always fails.

Is the watch in a location that is appropriate for signal reception?

Check your surroundings and move the

to a location where signal reception

watch is better.

Appropriate Signal Reception Location

Did you avoid touching the watch while the receive operation was in progress?

Minimize movement of the watch and do not perform any watch operation while a receive operation is in progress.

Is there an alarm configured to sound during the same period that the signal receive operation is performed?

Receive stops if an alarm operation starts while it is being performed. Disable the alarm.

Turning an Alarm On or Off

Is the signal transmitter in your area transmitting a signal?

The transmitter of the time signal may not be transmitting. Try again later.

Time setting is incorrect even when time signal reception is successful.

Strong magnetism or impact may cause the hands of the watch to go out of alignment. Adjust hand alignment.

Altitude Measurement

Relative altitude is calculated based on changes the watch’s pressure sensor. This means that barometric pressure changes can cause readings taken at the same location to be different. Also note that the value displayed by the watch may be different from the actual elevation and/or sea level elevation indicated for the area where you are located. When using the watch’s altimeter while mountain climbing, it is recommended that you regularly calibrate its readings in accordance with local altitude (elevation) indications.

The second hand will move to 9 o’clock if a reading is outside the allowable altitude measurement range (-700 m to 10,000 m (-2,300 there may be a problem with the sensor.

There may be a problem with the sensor. Try taking another measurement. If [ERR] keeps appearing after multiple measurement attempts, contact a CASIO service center.
