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.

Expose the watch to bright light to charge its battery before using it.
You can use this watch even as its battery is being charged by exposure to bright
light.

Be sure to read “Battery” 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 on indicator (PS) is on the display
(either flashing or not flashing), it means that the
display is blank because the watch’s Power Saving
function has turned off the display to conserve
power
. Power Saving automatically turns off the display
and enters a sleep state whenever your watch is left for
a certain period 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 recovers 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.

The watch’s built-in full automatic calendar makes allowances for different month

of midnight to 11:59 a.m.
