Low Battery Indicator

This message indicates that battery power is

too low to perform the measurement. It

appears whenever battery power drops below

a certain level, or when you try to perform a

measurement under very cold conditions

(below about –10°C/14°F).

If the cause of the low battery indicator is due to use under cold conditions,

normal operation should return after the watch is brought back to normal

temperature.

If the cause of the low battery indicator is due to low battery power (indicated

when

appears under normal temperatures), you should have the

watch's batteries replaced as soon as possible. Note that replacement of the

batteries causes all memory contents to be deleted.

Sensor Malfunction Indicator

This message flashes on the display to

indicate malfunction of pressure sensor

circuitry.

Note that calibrating the Digital Compass can

also cause the

In this case, the message does not indicate

sensor malfunction, and the condition should

be corrected when you re-calibrate the Digital

Compass.

Important!

• If a sensor malfunctions or if battery power is low when it comes time for a

measurement to be taken, the measurement value appears as

the display. In the case of barometric pressure measurement, the

corresponding point on the barometric pressure graph is left blank.

• There may be cases where the

(low battery) message disappears from the display when you

change modes. In this case, you can continue using the watch normally

unless the warning indicator reappears.

Whenever you have a sensor malfunction, be sure to take the watch to an

authorized CASIO distributor or service provider as soon as possible.

Auto Return Features

• After you perform an operation in the Recall, Alarm, and Stopwatch Modes,

pressing D returns to the Timekeeping Mode.

• If you leave the watch in the Digital Compass, Barometer/Thermometer, or

Altimeter Mode for 10 to 11 hours without performing any operation, the

watch beeps and automatically returns to the Timekeeping Mode.

• If you leave a screen with flashing digits on the display for two or three

minutes without performing any operation, the watch automatically saves

anything you have input up to that point and exits the setting screen.

Data and Setting Scrolling

The E and B 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.

Timekeeping

• The day of the week is automatically displayed in accordance with the date

(year, month, and day) settings.

• The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2039.

• The watch's built-in full automatic calendar automatically 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 batteries replaced.

12-hour/24-hour Timekeeping Formats

The 12-hour/24-hour timekeeping format you select in the Timekeeping Mode

is also applied in all modes.

• With the 12-hour format, the P (PM) indicator appears to the left of the hour

digits for times in the range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and no indicator appears

to the left of the hour digits 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,

with 24 indicator.

Backlight Precautions

• The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after

very long use.

• The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed

under direct sunlight.

• The watch will emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. It

does not indicate malfunction of the watch.

• The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.

• The backlight remains lit for about one second from the point you press the

button, even if it is already lit when you press the button. If you keep the

button depressed for one second or more, the backlight automatically turns

off.

• Frequent use of the backlight shortens the battery life.

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.

• The backlight may not light if the face of the

below parallel. Make sure that the back of

your hand is parallel to the ground.

• The backlight turns off in about one second,

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 the backlight does not light, 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, the backlight may not light until about one second

after you turn the face of the watch towards you. This does not necessarily

indicate malfunction of the backlight.

Digital Compass Precautions

This watch features a built-in magnetic bearing sensor that detects terrestrial

magnetism. This means that north indicated by this watch is magnetic north,

which is somewhat different from true polar north. The magnetic north pole is

located in northern Canada, while the magnetic south pole is in southern

Australia. Note that the difference between magnetic north and true north as

measured with all magnetic compasses tends to be greater as one gets

closer to either of the magnetic poles. You should also remember that some

maps indicate true north (instead of magnetic north), and so you should make

allowances when using such maps with this watch.

Location

• Taking a direction reading when you are near a source of strong

magnetism can cause large errors in readings. Because of this, you should

avoid taking direction readings while in the vicinity of the following types of

objects: permanent magnets (magnetic necklaces, etc.), concentrations of

metal (metal doors, lockers, etc.), high tension wires, aerial wires,

household appliances (TVs, personal computers, washing machines,

freezers, etc.)

• Accurate direction readings are impossible while in a train, boat, air plane,

etc.

• Accurate readings are also impossible indoors, especially inside ferro-

concrete structures. This is because the metal framework of such

structures picks up magnetism from appliances, etc.

Storage

• The precision of the bearing sensor may deteriorate if the watch becomes

magnetized. Because of this, you should be sure to store the watch away

from magnets or any other sources of strong magnetism, including:

permanent magnets (magnetic necklaces, etc.) and household appliances

(TVs, personal computers, washing machines, freezers, etc.)

• Whenever you suspect that the watch may have become magnetized,

perform one of the calibration procedures under "Calibrating the Bearing

Sensor" below.

Calibrating the Bearing Sensor

Whenever you suspect that direction readings produced by the watch are

wrong, you should calibrate it. You can use either one of two calibration

procedures: bidirectional calibration or northerly calibration .

Use bidirectional calibration when you want to take readings within an area

exposed to magnetic force. This type of calibration should be used if the

watch become magnetized for any reason.

With northerly calibration, you "teach" the watch which way is north (which

you have to determine with another compass or some other means). You

could use this calibration procedure, for example, to set the watch to indicate

true north instead of magnetic north.

Important!

• If you want to perform both bidirectional and northerly calibration, be sure

to perform bidirectional calibration first, and then perform northerly

calibration. This is necessary because bidirectional calibration cancels any

previously set northerly calibration setting.

• The more correctly you perform bidirectional calibration, the better the

accuracy of the bearing sensor readouts. You should perform bidirectional

calibration whenever you change environments where you use the bearing

sensor, and whenever you feel that the bearing sensor is producing

incorrect readings.

To perform bidirectional calibration

1. Enter the Digital Compass Mode.

2. Hold down A until the upper display area
