Do not use your watch for scuba diving or
other types of diving that requires air tanks.
Watches that do not have WATER RESIST
or WATER RESISTANT marked on the
back cover are not protected against the
effects of sweat. Avoid using such a watch
under conditions where it will be exposed to
large amounts of sweat or moisture, or to
direct splashing with water.
Even if a watch is water resistant, note the
usage precautions described below. Such
types of use reduce water resistance
performance and can cause fogging of the
glass.
ー 
Do not operate the crown or buttons while
your watch is submersed in water or wet.
ー 
Avoid wearing your watch while in the
bath.
ー 
Do not wear your watch while in a heated
swimming pool, sauna, or any other high
temperature/high humidity environment.
ー 
Do not wear your watch while washing
your hands or face, while doing
housework, or while performing any other
task that involves soaps or detergents.
After submersion in seawater, use plain
water to rinse all salt and dirt from your
watch.
To maintain water resistance, have the
gaskets of your watch replaced periodically
(about once every two or three years).
A trained technician will inspect your watch
for proper water resistance whenever you
have its battery replaced. Battery
replacement requires the use of special
tools. Always request battery replacement
from your original retailer or from an
authorized CASIO service center.
Some water-resistant watches come with
fashionable leather bands. Avoid
swimming, washing, or any other activity
that causes direct exposure of a leather
band to water.
The inside surface of the watch glass may
fog when the watch is exposed to a sudden
drop in temperature. No problem is
indicated if the fogging clears up relatively
quickly. Sudden and extreme temperature
changes (such as coming into an air
conditioned room in the summer and
standing close to an air conditioner outlet,
or leaving a heated room in the winter and
allowing your watch to come into contact
with snow) can cause it to take longer for
glass fogging to clear up. If glass fogging
does not clear up or if you notice moisture
inside of the glass, immediately stop using
your watch and take it to your original
retailer or to an authorized CASIO service
center.
Your water-resistant watch has been tested
in accordance with International
Organization for Standardization
regulations.
Band
Tightening the band too tightly can cause
you to sweat and make it difficult for air to
pass under the band, which can lead to skin
irritation. Do not fasten the band too tightly.
There should be enough room between the
band and your wrist so you can insert your
finger.
Deterioration, rust, and other conditions can
cause the band to break or come off of your
watch, which in turn can cause band pins to
fly out of position or to fall out. This creates
the risk of your watch falling from your wrist
and becoming lost, and also creates the risk
of personal injury. Always take good care of
your band and keep it clean.
Immediately stop using a band if you even
notice any of the following: loss of band
flexibility, band cracks, band discoloration,
band looseness, band connecting pin flying
or falling out, or any other abnormality. Take
your watch to your original retailer or to a
CASIO service center for inspection and
repair (for which you will be charged) or to
have the band replaced (for which you will
be charged).
