Congratulations upon your selection of this CASIO watch.
This watch does not have a city code that corresponds to the UTC offset of –3.5
hours. Because of this, the radio-controlled atomic timekeeping function will not
display the correct time for Newfoundland, Canada.
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.

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, be sure
to leave it in a location
where it is exposed to light.
Best charging
x
performance is achieved
by exposing the watch to
light that is as strong as
possible.
When wearing the watch,
makes sure that its face is
not blocked from light by the
sleeve of your clothing.
The watch may enter a
x
sleep state (page E-15) if
its face is blocked by your
sleeve even only partially.

Power Recovery Mode
The watch is designed to go into a power recovery mode that stops hand operation
temporarily whenever power suddenly drops below a certain level due to overuse
of the alarm tone over a short period. Note that all operations are disabled while the
watch is in the power recovery mode.
The hands will move to the correct positions and the watch will resume normal
operation after power recovers (in about 15 minutes). Putting the watch in a location
where it is exposed to light will help power to recover sooner.
Power Saving
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.
There actually are two sleep state levels: “second hand sleep” and “function sleep”.

problems.
When
xHNL (HONOLULU) or HKG (HONG KONG) is selected as the Home City,
only the time and date are adjusted according to the time calibration signal. You
need to switch manually between standard time and daylight saving time (DST) if
required. See “To toggle the Home City time between standard time and daylight

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-37) 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:

Even when the watch is within range of a transmitter, signal reception may be x
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
x
times of the year or day. Radio interference may also cause problems with

You can use the procedure below to swap your Home City and World Time City. This
capability can come in handy when you frequently travel between two locations in
different time zones.
The following example shows what happens when the
Home City and World Time City are swapped while the
Home City originally is TYO (Tokyo) and the World Time
City is NYC (New York).

Adjusting the Home Positions Manually
Strong magnetism or impact can cause the hands and/or date of the watch to be
off, even if the watch is able to perform the signal receive operation. If this happens,
perform the applicable home position adjustment procedures in this section.
Hand home position adjustment is not required if the time and day settings are
x
correct.
You also can use auto correction of the hand home positions (page E-55) to correct x
the home positions of the z Hour Hand, c Minute Hand, and x Second Hand.
Note
Any time after you enter the home position adjustment mode in step 1 of the following
procedure, you can return to the Timekeeping Mode by pressing A. The watch also
will return to the Timekeeping Mode automatically if you do not perform any operation
for about two or three minutes in home position adjustment mode. In either case, any
adjustments you made before the watch returned to the Timekeeping Mode will be
applied.

If you release xD when the x Second Hand stops the fi rst time (after about three
seconds) in the above operation, the watch will enter the home position adjustment
mode, which is described under “Adjusting the Home Positions Manually” (page
E-58). If this happens, press A to return to the Timekeeping Mode and then
perform the above operation again.
Manually triggered auto correction of hand home positions performs the following
x
two steps.
The hands will move automatically in order to determine the home positions of the 1.
watch.
After the hand home positions are determined, the watch will return to normal 2.
timekeeping automatically. This completes the correction operation.
To adjust the home positions
Hold down 1. C for about two seconds until the watch beeps twice and enters the
Timekeeping Mode.

Time Calibration Signal
The information in this section applies only when LON (LONDON), PAR (PARIS),
ATH (ATHENS), HNL (HONOLULU), ANC (ANCHORAGE), LAX (LOS ANGELES),
DEN (DENVER), CHI (CHICAGO), NYC (NEW YORK), HKG (HONG KONG), or TYO
(TOKYO) is selected as the Home City. You need to adjust the current time manually
when any other city is selected as the Home City.
■ The current time setting changes after I set it manually.
You may have the watch confi gured for Auto Receive of the time calibration signal
(page E-24), which will cause the time to be adjusted automatically according to your
currently selected Home City. If this results in the wrong time setting, check your
Home City setting and correct it, if necessary (page E-33).
■ The current time setting is off by one hour.
Possible CauseRemedyPage
Signal reception on a day for
switching between STD (standard
time)/DST (daylight saving time) may
have failed for some reason.
Perform the operation under “To get ready
