REFERENCE
This section contains more detailed and technical information about the
features, functions, and operation of this watch. It also contains important
precautions and notes that apply to watch operation.
Power Requirements
This watch is powered by a single CR2 lithium battery. Replace the battery as
soon as possible when figures on the display appear dim, when the backlight
does not turn on, or when the BATT EMPTY message appears on the display.
Important!
• Make sure that any water on the outside of the watch does not get into the
battery compartment! Carefully wipe all moisture from the watch before
opening the battery compartment.
To replace the battery
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, check the
display of the watch to make sure that
the WAIT message is not shown and
that there is no GPS measurement
operation being performed.
• Never remove the battery from the watch
while a GPS measurement operation is in
progress.
• Never remove the battery from the watch while the message WAIT is on
the display. Wait until the message disappears (which can take as long as
20 seconds) before starting.
2. Insert a coin into the slot in the battery compartment cover and twist so
the
K
mark 1 on the cover is aligned with the mark 2 on the watch to
open the cover.
• The battery has a spring under it, so the cover and battery will suddenly
spring free. Take care that you do not drop the battery compartment cover
and lose it.
3. Remove the old battery and its
metal sleeve from the watch, and
then remove the battery from the
sleeve.
4. Insert the new battery into the
sleeve, and slide the battery and
sleeve into the battery
compartment.
• Load the new battery as quickly as
possible after removing the old
battery.
• Make sure that the positive end (the one with the nub in the center) of the
battery is facing toward the cover and the negative end (the flat one) is
facing down when you insert the battery and sleeve into the watch.
5. Screw the battery compartment cover back onto the watch, aligning the
mark 3 on the cover with the mark 2 on the watch.
• Make sure you do not force or over-tighten the battery compartment cover.
Doing so can damage the watch.
6. Press LIGHT to check that the EL Backlight works properly.
7. Check the area, datum, time, and date settings of the watch and correct
them if necessary.
Important!
• We strongly urge use of battery brands specifically recommended in this
manual.
• The battery installed at the factory discharges during shipment and
inventory storage. Because of this, it may not provide the normal battery
life specified for this watch.
• The battery installed at the factory is not rechargeable. Never try to charge it.
• Damage to or dirt, dust, moisture on the inside of the battery compartment
cover or on the surface that comes into contact with the rubber seal can
cause loss of water resistance. Keep such areas clean and free of
moisture.
• We recommend that you replace the battery compartment cover and the
rubber seal once a year in order to ensure that the watch always performs
at the level for which it was designed. Contact your CASIO dealer or
distributor about replacement of these items.
• Should battery fluid ever leak inside the battery compartment, immediately
use a dry rag to wipe it out while taking care not to get any fluid on your
hands.
• Never leave a dead or weak battery in the battery compartment. Doing so
runs the risk of damage and malfunction due to battery fluid leaks.
• Be sure to dispose of old batteries according to the local laws and
regulations in your area.
• Improperly replacing the battery can result in damage to the watch.
Repairing such damage will be charged to you, so take care to replace the
battery correctly.
• Always take along extra batteries when going to isolated areas where they
might not otherwise be available.
• The display of the watch will go blank if you leave it for a long time without
a battery installed.
• If you do not plan to load a battery right away, insert the empty metal
sleeve into the battery compartment and close the battery compartment
cover. When you open the battery compartment cover while there is no
battery loaded, there is no spring force pressing up on the inside of the
cover when you open it. In such a case, use the following procedure to
open the battery compartment cover.
1. Insert a coin into the slot in the battery compartment cover and twist so
the
K
mark 1 is aligned with the mark 2 on the watch to release the
cover.
2. Insert the blade of a screwdriver or other similar object into the slot on
the side of the cover and lift the cover to open it.
• Do not operate any of the watch’s buttons when there is no battery in the
battery compartment.
• If you left the watch without battery power until the screen went blank,
make new time, alarm, map scale, distance unit, and speed unit settings.
• The initial position measurement after you replace the battery may take a
relatively long time to complete.
• Never try to take the battery apart, or expose it to heat or direct flame. Take
care that the positive and negative ends of the battery never become
shorted.
• Carrying or storing batteries together with metal objects or other batteries
can cause them to generate heat, burst, or even emit flame. Take sufficient
care whenever carrying, storing, or disposing of batteries.
• Keep batteries out of the reach of small children. If accidentally
swallowed, immediately contact a physician.
