•This watch is designed to pick up the time calibration signals transmitted in Germany
(Mainflingen), England (Anthorn), the United States (Fort Collins), China (Shangqiu),
and Japan (Fukushima, Fukuoka/Saga).
Current Time  SettingThis watch adjusts its time setting automatically in accordance with a time calibration
signal. You also can perform a manual procedure to set the time and date, when
necessary.
•The first thing you should do after purchasing this watch is to specify your
Home City (the city where you normally will use the watch). For more
information, see “To specify your Home City” below.
•When using the watch outside the areas covered by the time signal transmitters, you
will have to adjust the current time setting manually as required. See “Timekeeping”
for more information about manual time settings.
•The U.S. time calibration signal can be picked up by the watch while in North
America. The term “North America” in this manual refers to the area that consists of
Canada, the continental United States, and Mexico.

Note
•When a calibration time is reached, the watch will receive the calibration signal only
if it is in either the Timekeeping Mode or World Time Mode. Reception is not
performed if a calibration time is reached while you are configuring settings.
•Auto receive of the calibration signal is designed to be performed early in the
morning, while you sleep (provided that the Timekeeping Mode time is set correctly).
Before going to bed for the night, remove the watch from your wrist, and put it in a
location where it can receive the signal easily.
•The watch receives the calibration signal for two to seven minutes everyday when
the time in the Timekeeping Mode reaches a calibration time. Do not perform any
button operation within seven minutes before or after the calibration times. Doing so
can interfere with correct calibration.
•Remember that reception of the calibration signal depends on the current time in the
Timekeeping Mode. The receive operation will be performed whenever the display
shows any one of the calibration times, regardless of whether or not the displayed
time actually is the correct time.
About the Signal Strength Indicator
The signal strength indicator shows the strength of the calibration signal being
received. For best reception, be sure to keep the watch in a location where signal
strength is strongest. The signal strength indicator is displayed while an auto or
manual receive operation is in progress.

•Even in an area where signal strength is strong, it takes about 10 seconds for signal
reception to stabilize enough for the signal strength indicator to indicate signal
strength.
•Use the signal strength indicator as a guide for checking signal strength and for
finding the best location for the watch during signal receive operations.
•Following reception of the time calibration signal and calibration of the watch’s time
setting, the Settings updated indicator will remain on the display in all modes. The
Settings updated indicator will not be displayed if signal reception was unsuccessful
or after you adjust the current time setting manually.
•The Settings updated indicator is displayed only when the watch is able to receive
both time and date data successfully. It does not appear when only time data is
received.
•The Settings updated indicator indicates that at least one of the auto calibration
signal receive operations was successful. Note, however, that the Settings updated
indicator disappears from the display each day when the first auto receive operation
of the day is performed.
To perform manual receive1. Enter the Timekeeping Mode.
2. Hold down D for about two seconds until  starts to
flash on the display. This indicates that manual receive
is in progress.
•Time calibration signal reception takes from two to
seven minutes. Take care that you do not perform
any button operations or move the watch during this
time.
•If the receive operation is successful, the reception
date and time appear on the display, along with the
GET indicator.

About the Auto Light SwitchTurning on the auto light switch causes illumination to turn on, whenever you position
your wrist as described below in any mode. Note that this watch features a “Full Auto
EL Light,” so the auto light switch operates only when available light is below a certain
level. It does not turn on the backlight under bright light.
Moving the watch to a position that is parallel to the ground and then tilting it towards
you more than 40 degrees causes illumination to turn on.
• Wear the watch on the outside of your wrist.
Parallel to
groundMore than 40°
Warning!
• •• •
•Always make sure you are in a safe place whenever you are reading the
display of the watch using the auto light switch. Be especially careful when
running or engaged in any other activity that can result in accident or injury.
Also take care that sudden illumination by the auto light switch does not
startle or distract others around you.
• •• •
•When you are wearing the watch, make sure that its auto light switch is
turned off before riding a bicycle or operating a motorcycle or any other
motor vehicle. Sudden and unintended operation of the auto light switch can
create a distraction, which can result in a traffic accident and serious
personal injury.
To turn the auto light switch on and offIn the Timekeeping Mode, hold down L for about three seconds to toggle the auto
light switch on (auto light switch on indicator displayed) and off (auto light switch on
indicator not displayed).
•The auto light switch on indicator is on the display in all modes while the auto light
switch is turned on.
Power SupplyThis watch is equipped with a solar cell and a rechargeable batter y that is charged by
the electrical power produced by the solar cell. The illustration shown below shows
how you should position the watch for charging.
Example:Orient the watch so its face is
pointing at a light source.
•The illustration shows how to position a
watch with a resin band.
•Note that charging efficiency drops when
any part of the solar cell is blocked by
clothing, etc.
•You should try to keep the watch outside of
your sleeve as much as possible. Charging
is reduced significantly if the face is
covered only partially.
Solar cell
Important!
•Storing the watch for long periods in an area where there is no light or wearing it in
such a way that it is blocked from exposure to light can cause rechargeable battery
power to run down. Be sure that the watch is exposed to bright light whenever
possible.
•This watch uses a rechargeable battery to store power produced by the solar cell, so
regular battery replacement is not required. However, after very long use, the
rechargeable battery may lose its ability to achieve a full charge. If you experience
problems getting the rechargeable battery to charge fully, contact your dealer or
CASIO distributor about having it replaced.
•Never try to remove or replace the watch’s rechargeable battery yourself. Use of the
wrong type of battery can damage the watch.
•All data stored in memory is deleted, and the current time and all other settings
return to their initial factory defaults whenever battery power drops to Level 5 and
when you have the battery replaced.
•Turn on the watch’s Power Saving function and keep it in an area normally exposed
to bright light when storing it for long periods. This helps to keep the rechargeable
battery from going dead.

•The flashing LOW indicator at Level 3 tells you that battery power is very low, and
that exposure to bright light for charging is required as soon as possible.
•At Level 5, all functions are disabled and settings return to their initial factory
defaults. Once the battery reaches Level 2 after falling to Level 5, reconfigure the
current time, date, and other settings.
•The watch’s Home City code setting will change automatically to TYO (Tokyo)
whenever the battery drops to Level 5. With this Home City code setting, the watch is
configured to receive the time calibration signals of Japan. If you are using the watch
in North America or Europe, or China you will need to change the Home City code
setting to match your location whenever the battery drops to Level 5.
•
Display indicators reappear as soon as the battery is charged from Level 5 to Level 2.•Leaving the watch exposed to direct sunlight or some other very strong light source
can cause the battery power indicator to show a reading temporarily that is higher
than the actual battery level. The correct battery level should be indicated after a few
minutes.•Performing illumination, or beeper operations during a
short period may cause 
 (recover) to appear on
the display.
After some time, battery power will recover and 
(recover) will disappear, indicating that the above

Daylight Saving Time (DST)Daylight Saving Time (summer time) advances the time setting by one hour from
Standard Time. Remember that not all countries or even local areas use Daylight
Saving Time.
The time calibration signals transmitted from Mainflingen (Germany), Anthorn
(England), or Fort Collins (the United States) include both Standard Time and DST
data. When the Auto DST setting is turned on, the watch switches between Standard
Time and DST (summer time) automatically in accordance with the signals.
•Though the time calibration signals transmitted by the Fukushima and Fukuoka/
Saga, Japan transmitters include summer time data, summer time currently is not
implemented in Japan (as of 2008).
•The default DST setting is Auto DST (
AvtA) whenever you select LIS, LON, MAD,
PA R, ROM, BER, STO, AT H, MOW, TYO, ANC, YVR, LAX, YEA, DEN, MEX, CHI,

Tidal Movements
Tides are the periodic rise and fall of the water of oceans, seas, bays, and other
bodies of water caused mainly by the gravitational interactions between the Earth,
Moon and Sun. Tides rise and fall about every six hours. The Tide Graph of this watch
indicates tidal movement based on the Moon’s transit over a meridian and the lunitidal
interval. The Tide Graph calculates and graphically represents current tide conditions
in your Home City or a port city in the vicinity of the Home City based on longitudes,
lunar day length, and lunitidal interval preset in watch memory, and on high tide times
specified by you.
Tide GraphThe Tide Graph graphically represents the current tide condition using one of three
patterns that represent spring tide, intermediate tide, and neap tide, as shown below.
Large difference between high tide
and low tide. Occurs a few days
before and after a New Moon and Full
Moon.
Medium difference between high tide
and low tide.
Small difference between high tide
and low tide. Occurs a few days
before and after the first quarter and
last quarter of a half moon. Tide Name Graph Description
Spring TideIntermediate Tide
Neap Tide
•The Tide Graph flashes as shown below to indicate the tide range.
•The segments on either end of the Tide Graph flash during high tide.
Lunitidal Interval
Theoretically, high tide is at the Moon’s transit over the meridian and low tide is about
six hours later. Actual high tide occurs somewhat later, due to factors such as
viscosity, friction, and underwater topography. Both the time differential between the
Moon’s transit over the meridian until high tide and the time differential between the
Moon’s transit over the meridian until low tide are known as the “lunitidal interval”.

Radio-controlled Atomic Timekeeping Precautions•Strong electrostatic charge can result in the wrong time being set.
•The time calibration signal bounces off the ionosphere. Because of this, such factors
as changes in the reflectivity of the ionosphere, as well as movement of the
ionosphere to higher altitudes due to seasonal atmospheric changes or the time of
day may change the reception range of the signal and make reception temporarily
impossible.
•Even if the time calibration signal is received properly, certain conditions can cause
the time setting to be off by up to one second.
•The current time setting in accordance with the time calibration signal takes priority
over any time settings you make manually.
•The watch is designed to update the date and day of the week automatically for the
period January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2099. Setting of the date by the time
calibration signal cannot be performed starting from January 1, 2100.
•This watch can receive signals that differentiate between leap years and non-leap
years.
•Though this watch is designed to receive both time data (hour, minutes, seconds)
and date data (year, month, day), certain signal conditions can limit reception to time
data only.
•If you are in an area where proper time calibration signal reception is impossible, the
watch keeps the time with the precision noted in “Specifications”.
•If you have problems with proper time calibration signal reception or if the time
setting is wrong after signal reception, check your current city code, DST (summer
time), and auto receive settings.
•The Home City setting reverts to the initial default of 
TYO (Tokyo) whenever the
battery power level drops to Level 5 or when you have the rechargeable battery
replaced. If this happens, change the Home City to the setting you want.
Transmitters
The time calibration signal received by this watch depends on the currently selected
Home City code.
•When a U.S. time zone is selected, the watch receives the time calibration signal
transmitted from the United States (Fort Collins).
•When a Japanese time zone is selected, the watch receives the time calibration
signal transmitted from Japan (Fukushima and Fukuoka/Saga).
•When a European time zone is selected, the watch receives the time calibration
signals transmitted from Germany (Mainflingen) and England (Anthorn).
•When a China time zone is selected, the watch receives the time calibration signals
transmitted from China (Shangqiu City).
•When your Home City is LIS, LON, MAD, PA R, ROM, BER, STO, AT H, MOW
(which can receive both the Anthorn and Mainflingen signals), the watch first tries to
pick up the signal it last successfully received. If that fails, it tries the other signal. For
the first receive after you select your Home City, the watch tries the nearest signal
first (Anthorn for LIS, LON, Mainflingen for MAD, PA R, ROM, BER, STO, AT H, and
MOW).
Auto Return•If you do not perform any operation for about two or three minutes while a setting
screen (with a flashing setting) is on the display, the watch will exit the setting screen
automatically.
ScrollingThe B and D 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 at high speed.
Initial ScreensWhen you enter the World Time Mode or Alarm Mode, the data you were viewing
when you last exited the mode appears first.
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.
•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 current time for all city codes in the Timekeeping Mode and World Time Mode is
calculated in accordance with the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) for each city,
based on your Home City time setting.
World Time•The seconds count of the World Time is synchronized with the seconds count of the
Timekeeping Mode.
Illumination Precautions•The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after very long
use.
•Illumination may be difficult 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.
Auto light switch precautions
•Avoid wearing the watch on the inside of your wrist. Doing so causes the auto light
switch to operate when it is not needed, which shortens battery life. If you want to
wear the watch on the inside of your wrist, turn off the auto light switch feature.
•Illumination may not turn on if the face of the watch is
more than 15 degrees above or below parallel. Make
sure that the back of your hand is parallel to the ground.
•Illumination turns off after a preset amount of time (1.5
or 3 seconds), even if you keep the watch pointed
towards your face.
•Static electricity or magnetic force can interfere with proper operation of the auto
light switch. If illumination does not turn on, try moving the watch back to the starting
position (parallel with the ground) and then tilt it back toward you again. If this does
not work, drop your arm all the way down so it hangs at your side, and then bring it
back up again.
•Under certain conditions, illumination may not turn on until about one second after
you turn the face of the watch towards you. This does not necessarily indicate
malfunction of the auto light switch.
•You may notice a very faint clicking sound coming from the watch when it is shaken
back and forth. This sound is caused by mechanical operation of the auto light
switch, and does not indicate a problem with the watch.
