Getting Acquainted

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

Keep the watch exposed to bright light

The electricity generated by the solar cell of the watch is
stored by a built-in battery. Leaving or using the watch where
it is not exposed to light causes the batter y to run down.
Make sure the watch is exposed to light as much as possible.

• When you are not wearing the watch on your wrist,

position the face so it is pointed at a source of bright light.

• You should try to keep the watch outside of your sleeve

as much as possible. Charging is reduced significantly if
the face is only partially covered.

• The watch continues to operate, even when it is not exposed to light. Leaving the

watch in the dark can cause the battery to run down, which will result in some watch
functions to be disabled. If the battery goes dead, you will have to re-configure watch
settings after recharging. To ensure normal watch operation, be sure to keep it
exposed to light as much as possible.

its time setting accordingly. The time calibration signal

Current Time Setting
This watch automatically adjusts its time setting in accordance with a time calibration
signal. You can also perform a manual procedure to set the time and date, when
necessary.

• The first thing you should do after purchasing this watch is to set your Home City,

which is the city where you will normally use the watch. For more information, see
“To set your Home City” below.

• When using the watch in an area that is outside of the range of the transmitters in

Anthorn and Mainflingen, you need to manually adjust the time as required. See
“Timekeeping” for information about manual settings.

• The analog time of this watch is synchronized with the digital time. Because of this,

the analog time setting is automatically adjusted whenever you change the digital
setting. See “Analog Timekeeping” for more information.

To set your Home City

1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down A until the

transmitter indicator (AT, DCF, MSF) starts to flash,
which indicates the setting screen.

• If the displayed transmitter indicator shows something

other than 

AT, use D to display AT before

advancing to the next step.

• The second hand will move at high speed to the 12

o’clock position, where it will stop.

2. Press C to display the city code setting screen.
3. Use D (east) and B (west) to select the city code you

want to use as your Home City.

• The following are the city codes for major cities in the

Western Europe time zones.
LON: London
PAR and BER: Paris, Berlin, Milan, Rome,

Amsterdam, Hamburg, Frankfurt,
Vienna, Barcelona, Madrid

4. Press A twice to exit the setting screen.

• The first press of A displays the 12/24-hour setting screen. Pressing A again exits

the setting screen.

• The second hand will advance at high speed to the correct position in accordance

with seconds count of the digital time, and resume normal movement from there.

• Normally, your watch should show the correct time as soon as you select your Home

City Code. If it does not, it should adjust automatically after the next auto receive (in
the middle of the night). You can also perform manual receive or you can set the time
manually.

• If you are in an area that does not use Daylight Saving Time (summer time), turn off

the DST setting.

• See “Transmitters” for details about the transmitter indicator.
