Illumination
This watch has an EL (electro-luminescent) panel that
causes the entire display to glow for easy reading in the
dark.
The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination
loses power after very long use.
Illumination may be hard to see when viewed under
direct sunlight.
The watch may emit an audible sound whenever the
display is illuminated. This is due to vibration of the EL
panel used for illumination, and does not indicate
malfunction.
Illumination turns off automatically whenever an alarm
sounds.
Frequent use of illumination runs down the battery.
To turn on illumination
In any mode (except when a setting screen is on the display), press B to illuminate
the display for about one second.
Reference
This section contains more detailed and technical information about watch operation.
It also contains important precautions and notes about the various features and
functions of this watch.
Auto Return Feature
The watch will return to the Timekeeping Mode automatically if you do not perform
any operation for about two or three minutes while in the Digital Compass/
Thermometer Mode or Alarm Mode.
If you leave a screen with flashing digits on the display without performing any
operation for two or three minutes, the watch saves any settings you have made up
to that point and exits the setting screen automatically.
Button Operation Tone
The button operation tone sounds any time you press one of the watch’s buttons. You
can turn the button operation tone on or off as desired.
Even if you turn off the button operation tone, the alarm, hourly time signal, and
Countdown Timer Mode alarm all operate normally.
To turn the button operation tone on and off
In any mode (except when a setting screen is on the
display), hold down C to toggle the button operation tone
on (
not displayed) and off ( displayed).

holding it down to turn the button operation on or off also
causes the watch’s current mode to change.
The
indicator is displayed in all modes when the
button operation tone is turned off.
Data and Setting Scrolling
The B and D buttons are used in various modes and setting screens to scroll
through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a scroll
operation scrolls through the data at high speed.

Sensor Error and Low Battery Displays
Subjecting the watch to strong impact can damage the sensor or cause internal
connection problems. These conditions will cause
(error) to appear on the
display, indicating that sensor operation is disabled.
Sensor operation also is disabled whenever
(battery) is on the display, which
indicates insufficient battery power or voltage due to a low battery or a cold
environment.
If an error occurs or the battery goes low during sensor operation,
or will
appear in the upper right of the display for about 10 seconds, and then change to
---.
If an error occurs or the battery goes low during bearing sensor correction, or
will appear in the upper right of the display for about one second, and then the
calibration screen will appear. Try performing calibration again.
If an error occurs or the battery goes low during temperature sensor calibration,
or will appear on the display for about one second. Next, xxx will flash for the
temperature value in the center of the display.
This indicates that temperature sensor calibration is not possible. Press A to exit
the calibration screen, and then try performing temperature sensor calibration again.
If the
message appears frequently, it could mean the sensor is malfunctioning.
Whenever you have a sensor malfunction, be sure to take the watch to your original
dealer or nearest authorized CASIO distributor as soon as possible.
Timekeeping
Resetting the seconds to 00 while the current count is in the range of 30 to 59
causes the minutes to be increased by 1. In the range of 00 to 29, the seconds are
reset to 00 without changing the minutes.
With the 12-hour format, the P (PM) indicator appears on the display for times in the
range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and no indicator appears for times in the range of
midnight to 11:59 a.m.
With the 24-hour format, times are displayed in the range of 0:00 to 23:59, without
any indicator.
The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2099.
The watch’s built-in full automatic calendar makes allowances for different month
lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no reason to change
it except after you have the watch’s battery replaced.
The times for the Timekeeping Mode and all the city codes of the World Time Mode
are calculated in accordance with each city’s UTC offset.
The UTC offset is a value that indicates the time difference between a reference
point in Greenwich, England and the time zone where a city is located.
The letters UTC is the abbreviation for Coordinated Universal Time, which is the
world-wide scientific standard of timekeeping. It is based upon carefully maintained
atomic (cesium) clocks that keep time accurately to within microseconds. Leap
seconds are added or subtracted as necessary to keep UTC in sync with the Earth’s
rotation.
