Getting Acquainted

Congratulations upon your selection of this CASIO watch. To get the most out of your purchase, be sure to read this manual carefully.

Keep the watch exposed to bright light

Bright Light

Solar cell

The electricity generated by the solar cell of the watch is stored by a built-in 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 only partially covered.

E-1

• 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 being 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.

Battery charges in the light. Battery discharges in the dark.

Swapping your Home City and World Time City

You can use the procedure below to swap your Home City and World Time City. This changes your Home City to your World Time City, and your World Time City to your Home City. This capability can come in handy when you frequently travel between two cities in different time zones.

To swap your Home City and World Time City

1. In the World Time Mode, use D to select the World Time City you want.

2. Hold down A and B until the watch beeps.

• This will make the World Time City you selected in step 1 your Home City, and cause the hour and minute hands to move to the current time in that city. At the same time, it will change the Home City you had selected prior to step 2 your World Time City.

• After swapping the Home City and World Time City, the watch stays in the World Time Mode with the city that was selected as the Home City prior to step 2 now displayed as the World Time City.

The World Time Mode digitally displays the current time in 48 cities (31 time zones) around the world.

• If the current time shown for a city is wrong, check your Home City time settings and make the necessary changes (page E-11).

• After you press C to enter the World Time Mode, your currently selected World Time City code will appear on the digital display for about two seconds. After that, the current time in that city will appear.

• All of the operations in this section are performed in the World Time Mode, which you enter by pressing C (page E-9).
