1 MO0608-EA Getting Acquainted Congratuations upon your seection of this CASIO watch. To get the most out of your purchase, be sure to read this manua carefuy. This watch does not have a time zone that corresponds to the Greenwich Mean Time differentia of 3.5 hours. Because of this, the radio-controed timekeeping and Word Time functions wi not dispay the correct time for Newfoundand, Canada. Keep the watch exposed to bright ight The eectricity generated by the soar ce of the watch is Bright Light stored by a buit-in battery. Leaving or using the watch where it is not exposed to ight causes the battery to run down. Make sure the watch is exposed to ight as much as possibe. Soar ce When you are not wearing the watch on your wrist, position the face so it is pointed at a source of bright ight. You shoud try to keep the watch outside of your seeve as much as possibe. Charging is reduced significanty if the face is ony partiay covered. The watch continues to operate, even when it is not exposed to ight. Leaving the watch in the dark can cause the battery to run down, which wi cause some watch functions to be disabed. If the battery goes dead, you wi have to re-configure watch settings after recharging. To ensure norma watch operation, be sure to keep it exposed to ight as much as possibe. Battery charges in the ight. Battery discharges in the dark. The actua eve at which some functions are disabed depends on the watch mode. Frequent dispay iumination can run down the battery quicky and require charging. The foowing guideines give an idea of the charging time required to recover from a singe iumination operation. Approximatey five minutes exposure to bright sunight coming in through a window Approximatey 50 minutes exposure to indoor fuorescent ighting Be sure to read Power Suppy for important information you need to know when exposing the watch to bright ight. If the dispay of the watch is bank... If the dispay of the watch is bank, it means that the watch s Power Saving function has turned off the dispay to conserve power. See Power Saving Function for more information. About This Manua (Light) Button operations are indicated using the etters shown in the iustration.

Sunrise/Sunset Mode Stopwatch Mode Aarm Mode Radio-controed Atomic PM ay of week Month ay Hour : Minutes Seconds This watch receives a time caibration signa and updates its time setting accordingy. The time caibration signa incudes both Standard Time and ayight Saving Time (summer time) data. This watch is designed to pick up the time caibration signa transmitted from Fort Coins, Coorado (USA). Reception is possibe within North America *. * The term North America in this User s Guide refers to the area that consists of Canada, the continenta United States, and Mexico. Current Time Setting This watch adjusts its time setting automaticay in accordance with a time caibration signa. You can aso perform a manua procedure to set the time and date, when necessary. The first thing you shoud do after purchasing this watch is to set your Home City, which is the city where you normay wi use the watch. For more information, see To set your Home City beow. When using the watch outside of the range of the transmitter in Fort Coins, you need to adjust the time manuay as required. See for information about manua settings. To set your Home City 1. In the Mode, hod down A unti the city City code code starts to fash, which indicates the setting screen. 2. Use (east) and B(west) to seect the city code you want to use as your Home City. The foowing are the city codes for major cities in North America. LAX(P (Pacific) ): Los Angees, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Seatte, Vancouver, Tijuana EN(M (Mountain) ): E/C/M/P enver, E Paso, Edmonton, Cuiacan CHI(C (Centra) ): Chicago, Houston, aas/fort Worth, New Oreans, Winnipeg, Mexico City NYC(E (Eastern) ): New York, etroit, Miami, Boston, Montrea that this watch does not have a city code that corresponds to Newfoundand. 3. Press A twice to exit the setting screen. The first press of A dispays the 12/24-hour setting screen. Pressing A again exits the setting screen. Normay, your watch shoud show the correct time as soon as you seect your Home City code. If it does not, it shoud adjust automaticay after the next auto receive operation (in the midde of the night). You can aso perform manua receive or you can set the time manuay. If you are in an area that does not use ayight Saving Time (summer time), turn off the ST setting. Time Caibration Signa Reception There are two different methods you can use to receive the time caibration signa: auto receive and manua receive. Auto Receive With auto receive, the watch picks up the time caibration signa automaticay five times a day at midnight, 1:00 a.m., 2:00 a.m., 3:00 a.m., and 4:00 a.m. For more information, see About Auto Receive. Manua Receive Manua receive ets you start a time caibration receive operation with the press of a button. For more information, see To perform manua receive. When getting ready to receive the time caibration signa, position the watch as shown in the nearby iustration, with its 12 o cock side facing towards a window. Make sure there are no meta objects nearby. 12 o cock Make sure the watch is facing the right way. Proper signa reception can be difficut or even impossibe under the conditions isted beow. Inside or among buidings Inside a vehice Near househod appiances or office equipment, or a mobie phone or Near a construction site, airport, or other sources of eectrica noise Near hightension power ines Among or behind mountains 1

2 Signa reception normay is better at night than during the day. Time caibration signa reception takes from two to six minutes. Take care that you do not perform any button operations or move the watch during this time. Reception Range 600 mies 2,000 mies To dispay the Last Signa screen In the Mode, press to dispay the Last Signa screen (indicated by GET). The Last Signa screen shows the date and time of the ast successfu time caibration signa reception. If you do not press to return from the ast signa screen to the timekeeping screen, the watch wi return automaticay after about two or three minutes. PM ay of week Receive time Fort Coins At distances further than about 600 mies (1,000 kiometers) from the transmitter, signa reception may not be possibe during certain times of year or times of day. Radio interferance may aso cause probems with reception. Even when the watch is within the reception range of the transmitter, signa reception is impossibe if the signa is bocked by mountains or other geoogica formations between the watch and signa source. Signa reception is affected by weather, atmospheric conditions, and seasona changes. See the information under Signa Receive Troubeshooting if you experience probems with time caibration signa reception. About Auto Receive When auto receive is turned on, the watch starts to receive the time caibration signa automaticay when the time in the Mode reaches midnight, 1:00 a.m., 2:00 a.m., 3:00 a.m., and 4:00 a.m. each day (caibration times). The watch wi aso perform an additiona auto receive at 5:00 a.m. if none of the reguary schedued auto receives are successfu. The auto receive operation is performed ony if the watch is in the Mode or Word Time Mode when one of the caibration times is reached. It is not performed if a caibration time is reached whie an aarm is sounding, or whie you are configuring settings (whie settings are fashing on the dispay). Auto receive of the caibration signa is designed to be performed eary in the morning, whie you seep (provided that the Mode time is set correcty). Before going to bed for the night, remove the watch from your wrist, and put it in a ocation where it can receive the signa easiy. When auto receive is turned on, the watch receives the caibration signa for two to six minutes everyday when the Mode time reaches each of the caibration times. Avoid performing any button operation within six minutes before or after any one of the caibration times. oing so can interfere with correct caibration. Remember that reception of the caibration signa depends on the time kept in the Mode. The receive operation wi be performed whenever the dispay shows any one of the caibration times, regardess of whether or not the Mode time actuay is the correct time. When two, three, or four receptions are successfu, the watch uses the data of the ast reception for caibration. When ony one reception is successfu, the watch uses the data of the successfu reception. About the Receiving Indicator The receiving shows the strength of the caibration signa being received. For best reception, be sure to keep the watch in a ocation where signa strength is strongest. Weak Strong (Leve 1) (Leve 4) Receiving Use the receiving as a guide for checking signa strength and for finding the best ocation for the watch during signa receive operations. Even in an area where signa strength is strong, it takes about 10 seconds for signa reception to stabiize enough for the receiving to indicate signa strength. Foowing reception of the time caibration signa and caibration of the watch s time setting, the Leve 4 receiving wi remain on the dispay in a modes. The Leve 4 receiving wi not be dispayed if signa reception was unsuccessfu or after you adjust the current time setting manuay. The Leve 4 receiving is dispayed ony when the watch is abe to receive both time and date data successfuy. It does not appear when ony time data is received. The Leve 4 receiving indicates that at east one of the auto caibration signa receive operations was successfu., however, that the Leve 4 receiving is ceared from the dispay at 3:00 a.m. each day. To perform manua receive 1. Pace the watch on a stabe surface so its top (12 o cock side) is facing towards a window. 2. In the Mode, hod down for about two seconds unti the watch beeps. Reease and the message RC! appears to indicate that signa reception has started. Time caibration signa reception takes from two to six Receiving minutes. Take care that you do not perform any button operations or move the watch during this time. After signa reception is compete, the dispay of the watch changes to the Last Signa screen. To interrupt a receive operation and return to the Mode, press. If the receive operation is unsuccessfu, the message ERR appears on the dispay for about one or two minutes. After that, the watch returns to the Mode. You can aso change from the Last Signa or ERR screen to the norma timekeeping screen by pressing. To turn auto receive on and off 1. In the Mode, hod down A unti the city code starts to fash, which indicates the setting screen. 2. Press C twice to move the fashing to the auto receive on/off setting. 3.

The iustration shows how to position a watch with a resin band. that charging efficiency drops when any part of the soar ce is bocked by cothing, etc. You shoud try to keep the watch outside of your seeve as much as possibe. Charging is reduced significanty if the face is ony partiay covered. Storing the watch for ong periods in an area where there is no ight or wearing it in such a way that it is bocked from exposure to ight can cause rechargeabe battery power to run down. Make sure that the watch is exposed to bright ight whenever possibe. This watch uses a specia rechargeabe battery to store power produced by the soar ce, so reguar battery repacement is not required. However, after very ong use, the rechargeabe battery may ose its abiity to achieve a fu charge. If you experience probems getting the specia rechargeabe battery to charge fuy, contact your deaer or CASIO distributor about having it repaced. Never try to remove or repace the watch s specia battery yoursef. Use of the wrong type of battery can damage the watch. The current time and a other settings return to their initia factory defauts whenever battery power drops to Leve 4 and when you have the battery repaced. Turn on the watch s Power Saving function and keep it in an area exposed to bright ight when storing it for ong periods. This heps to keep the rechargeabe battery from going dead.

Radio-controed Atomic Precautions Strong eectrostatic charge can resut in the wrong time being set. The time caibration signa is bounced off the ionosphere. Because of this, such factors as changes in the refectivity of the ionosphere, as we as movement of the ionosphere to higher atitudes due to seasona atmospheric changes or the time of day may change the reception range of the signa and make reception temporariy impossibe. Even if the time caibration signa is received propery, certain conditions can cause the time setting to be off by up to one second. The current time setting in accordance with the time caibration signa takes priority over any time settings you make.
