Operation Manual

Troubleshooting
Auto time setting is not
correct.
Q1
The watch cannot perform a receive
operation.
Is the watch’s battery charged?
Signal reception is not possible while
battery power is low. Keep the watch
exposed to light until it recharges
sufficiently.
l
Solar Charging
Is the watch in the Timekeeping Mode?
Time signal auto receive is performed only
while the watch is in the Timekeeping
Mode.
Press (B) to enter the Timekeeping
Mode.
To trigger a time signal receive
operation manually, enter the Receive
Mode
and then hold down the (A) button
for about two seconds.

Auto Time Adjustment
Is your Home City setting correct for your
location?
The watch will not indicate the correct time
if
the Home City setting is wrong. Change
your Home City setting so it correctly
reflects your location.
l

After checking the above, the watch still
cannot perform a receive operation.
Time signal reception is not possible
when any one of the conditions exists.

Timer countdown in progress
If successful reception is not possible for
some
reason, you can adjust the time and
day settings manually.
Q2
The signal receive operation always
fails.
Is the watch in a location that is appropriate
for signal reception?
Check your surroundings and move the
watch
to a location where signal reception
is better.
l
Appropriate Signal Reception Location
Did you avoid touching the watch while the
receive operation was in progress?
Minimize movement of the watch and do
not perform any watch operation while a
receive operation is in progress.
Is there an alarm configured to sound
during the same period that the signal
receive operation is performed?
Receive stops if an alarm operation starts
while it is being performed. Disable the
alarm.
l
Turning an Alarm On or Off
Is the signal transmitter in your area
transmitting a signal?
The transmitter of the time signal may not
be transmitting. Try again later.
Q3
Time setting is incorrect even when
time signal reception is successful.
Strong magnetism or impact may cause the
hands of the watch to go out of alignment.
Adjust hand alignment.

Altitude Measurement
Q1
Readings
produce different results at
the same location.
Watch readings are different from
altitude information available from
other sources.
Correct altitude readings are not
possible.
Relative altitude is calculated based on
changes
in barometric pressure measured by
the watch’s pressure sensor. This means that
barometric pressure changes can cause
readings taken at the same location to be
different. Also note that the value displayed by
the watch may be different from the actual
elevation and/or sea level elevation indicated
for the area where you are located. When
using the watch’s altimeter while mountain
climbing, it is recommended that you regularly
calibrate its readings in accordance with local
altitude (elevation) indications.
l
Calibrating Altitude Readings
Q2
Following a relative altitude reading,
the watch’s second hand points to 9
o’clock.
The second hand will move to 9 o’clock if a
reading is outside the allowable altitude
measurement range (-700 m to 10,000 m
(-2,300
to 32,800 feet)). If [ERR] is displayed,
there may be a problem with the sensor.
l
Taking a Relative Altitude Reading from
Some Reference Point
Q3
[ERR]
appears during measurement.
There may be a problem with the sensor. Try
taking another measurement. If [ERR] keeps
appearing after multiple measurement
attempts, contact a CASIO service center.
