Getting Acquainted

Congratulations upon your selection of this CASIO watch. To get the most out of your
purchase, be sure to read this manual carefully and keep it on hand for later reference
when necessary.

Expose the watch to bright light to charge its batteries before using it.
You can use this watch even as its batteries are being charged by exposure to
bright light.
• Be sure to read “Power Supply” of this manual for important information you

need to know when exposing the watch to bright light.

If the digital display of the watch is blank...

If the Power Saving indicator (

) is flashing, it means

that the display is blank because the watch’s Power
Saving function has turned it off to conserve power. Power
Saving automatically turns off the display and enters a
sleep state whenever your watch is left for a certain period
in an area where it is dark. If the watch is kept in the dark
for a longer period, the analog hands will also stop moving
after a few days.
• The initial factory default setting is Power Saving on.
• The watch will recover from the sleep state if you move it

to a well-lit area, if you press any button, or if you angle
the watch towards your face for reading.

• See “Power Saving Function” for more information.
