●
It can take anywhere from about one minute
to three minutes for the day indicator to
change after timekeeping reaches
midnight. The mode hand moves as the day
indicator changes.
●
The day may not be indicated correctly while
the watch’s crown is pulled out.
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.
●
This watch uses a special rechargeable
(secondary) battery.
ー
The watch’s battery will not charge if the
watch’s temperature is less than
approximately -10°C (14°F) or greater
than approximately 60°C (140°F).
ー
Over-discharge will occur if the watch is
not charged within approximately three
months after it stops operation due to low
battery power. Charging may not be
possible after over-discharge occurs.
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
generation efficiency is reduced even when
the face of the watch is blocked only partially.
NOYES
Important!
●
If the second hand stops for some
time after the watch is continuously
exposed to light, it could mean that
charging is not possible due to over-
discharge. Request chargeable
(secondary) battery replacement by
your original retailer or authorized
CASIO service center.
●
Depending on light intensity and
local conditions, the watch may
become hot to the touch when
exposed to light for charging. Take
care to avoid burn injury after
charging. Also, avoid charging the
watch under high-temperature
conditions like the ones described
below.
ー
On the dashboard of a vehicle
parked in the sun
ー
Near an incandescent light bulb or
other source of heat
ー
Under direct sunlight or in other
hot areas for long periods
Note
●
Exposing the watch face to light after
the battery goes dead will cause the
second hand to revolve
counterclockwise until it stops at
second 57. This indicates charging
has started.
●
A fully charged watch can operate
for approximately seven months
without further charging. Watch
operation will stop approximately 20
days after the battery goes low.

Precautions
●
When the watch is unable to adjust its time
in accordance with a calibration signal for
some reason, average timekeeping
accuracy is within ±15 seconds per month.
●
GPS signal and time calibration signal
reception will not be possible under any of
the watch conditions described below.
ー
While battery power is low
ー
While the watch is in the Airplane Mode,

ー
Timer countdown operation in progress
ー
While the temperature of the watch is less
than approximately -10°C (14°F) or
greater than approximately 60°C (140°F)
●
Note that an internal decoding process the
watch performs after it receives a signal may
cause the time setting to be slightly off (by
less than one second).
●
If the receive operation is successful, the
time and day settings will be adjusted
automatically in accordance with the Home
City (time zone) and summer time settings.
Summer time will not be applied correctly in
the cases described below.
ー
When the summer time start date and

Adjusting Time
Settings Manually
You can use the procedure below to adjust the
watch’s time and day settings when GPS and
time calibration signal reception is not
possible for some reason.

The initial factory default summer
time setting for all cities (time zones)
is “AT (AUTO)”. In many cases, the
“AT (AUTO)” setting lets you use the
watch without switching between
summer time and standard time.
