•When wearing the watch, try to keep your sleeve from blocking its

face (solar cell).

Charging efficiency is significantly

reduced even if the face of the

watch is only partially covered by

your sleeve.

. After you start climbing...

•Monitor the altitude on the display to

see how high you have climbed. You

can also record altitude records

(including date and time) in memory.

Modes and Display Screens

Power Saving causes the watch to enter a sleep state automatically in order to save power whenever it is left in the dark. The Power

Saving feature of the watch is turned on at the factory.

•Note that the watch may also enter the sleep state if the watch is blocked from light by your sleeve.

How the sleep state works

•Display sleep state

The display sleep state is triggered whenever the watch is left in

the dark for about one hour between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6

a.m.

•The watch does not enter the

sleep state if it is in the Timer

Mode or Stopwatch Mode.

•The display sleep state causes

the display to go blank, except

for a flashing Power Saving

indicator. Alarm, hourly time

signal, and Timer Mode

progress alert and time up alert

operate normally in the display

sleep state.

•Function sleep state

The function sleep state is triggered whenever the watch is left

in the dark for six or seven days.

•The Power Saving indicator stops flashing and remains on the

display. Alarm, hourly time signal, and Timer Mode progress

alert and time up alert do not operate in the function sleep

state. In the function sleep state, 2-hour barometric pressure

readings and auto receive also are not performed.

•Digital timekeeping functions continue to operate normally in

the function sleep state.

❚

To recover from the sleep state

Place the watch in an area that is well-lit, press any button, or

angle the watch toward your face to illuminate the face of the

watch using the full auto light switch (“Positioning Your Arm

Correctly”).

•It can take up to two seconds before display figures re-appear

after you place the watch in a well-lit area.

❚

To turn Power Saving on and off

See the procedure under “To configure Home City settings” for

information about turning off Power Saving.

Leaving the watch in a drawer or anywhere else it is dark can

cause Power Saving to trigger in order to conserve battery

power.

The power supply of this watch uses a solar cell to generate

electrical power, which is stored by a rechargeable battery. Using

or storing the watch where it is not exposed to light regularly or

allowing it to be blocked from light by your sleeve as you are

wearing it can cause the power of the rechargeable battery to run

down. To ensure stable operation, be sure to allow the watch to be

exposed to light as much as possible when you are wearing or

storing it.

Note that all data in memory and all settings are cleared

whenever you allow the level of the rechargeable battery

to drop to Level 5.

Recover Indicator

If you use the light or alarms a number of times during a short

period, the RECOV indicator may appear on the display to indicate

that the following operations are disabled in order to allow battery

power to recover.

•Illumination

•Exposing the watch to direct sunlight or other strong light may

cause the battery level indicator to indicate a level that is

momentarily higher than the actual battery level. Because of this,

you should wait for a short while after charging to check the

battery level indicator.

•Even if the battery level drops all the way to Level 5, you still will

be able to recharge the battery and use the watch again.

•If you start charging from Level 5, the display of the watch will

flash when the battery reaches Level 4. Note, however, that the

watch’s functions will still remain disabled at this time, and you

should continue to expose the watch to light so the battery can

charge up the Level 2 or Level 1.

•Remember that even a partial blockage of the solar cell reduces

charging efficiency.

Example: Positioning the watch

Solar Cell

•The illustration shows the resin band model.

Start charging at Level 4!

Battery Level 4 indicates that remaining battery power is very low.

Be sure to expose the watch to light for recharging as soon as

possible after the Level 4 indicator starts to flash. Frequent display

of the recover indicator also means that the battery is low. Expose

the watch to light to charge the battery.

Charging Precautions

Avoid charging the watch in the following locations, and anywhere

else where the watch may become very hot.

• On the dashboard of an automobile parked in the sun

• Very close to an incandescent light source or other sources of heat

• In a location exposed to direct sunlight for long periods

Note that the display panel may become black under very high

temperatures. This is temporary, and the display will appear

normal again at lower temperatures.

Depending on the light source you are using, the

case of the watch may become quite hot during

charging. Take care to guard against burn injury after

charging.

❚

Positioning Your Arm Correctly

•You should be wearing the watch on the outside of your wrist

when using the full auto light switch.

•Make sure that the left (9 o’clock)

and right (3 o’clock) sides of the

watch are within ±15 degrees of

being parallel with the ground.

The full auto light switch may not

operate properly if the angle is

greater than 15 degrees.

Illumination Precautions

•The light may be difficult to see under bright sunlight.

•Illumination turns off automatically if an alarm sounds, etc.

•You may notice a slight sound from the watch while

illumination is turned on. This is the sound of EL panel

vibration and does not indicate malfunction.

•Illumination is disabled during time calibration signal

reception, while configuring sensor measurement mode

settings, and during direction sensor calibration

(“Calibrating the Direction Sensor”).

Full Auto Light Switch Precautions

•Frequent use of the full auto light switch can run down the battery.

•The full auto light switch may turn on illumination when the face of

the watch is shaded by your sleeve.

•Illumination may not turn on immediately when you angle the

watch towards your face. This does not indicate malfunction.

•Illumination remains on for the specified duration (1.5 seconds or

2.5 seconds) only, even if you leave the watch angled towards

your face.

•The full auto light switch is disabled automatically whenever the

battery indicator reaches Level 4.

•Illumination may turn on unintentionally when you wear the watch

on the inside of your wrist, when you shake your arm, or when

you raise your arm. Be sure to turn off the full auto light switch

whenever you do not need illumination.

•Keep the full auto light switch turned off whenever you are

wearing the watch on the inside of your wrist.

•Electro-static charge and magnetism can interfere with full auto

light switch operation and even make operation impossible. If this

happens, lower your arm to the starting position and then raise it

again. If you still have trouble with illumination, try lowering your

arm down to your side and then raise it to your face for reading.

•The full auto light switch is disabled during the 20 seconds

required to take a direction reading with the digital compass.

With the watch on your

wrist, position it parallel

with the ground.

Rotate your arm so the watch

is angled at about 40 degrees,

so you can read its face.

display illumination (“To specify

the illumination duration”).

•Pressing the L button turns on illumination regardless of

whether the full auto light switch is on or off.

You may hear a faint rattling sound when you move the watch

around. This sound is caused by the movement of a metal

bulb that controls operation of the full auto light switch, and

does not indicate malfunction.

❚

To turn the full auto light switch on or off

The full auto light switch turns on illumination automatically

whenever you angle the watch towards your face for reading,

but only when it is dark.

•The full auto light switch does not turn on illumination when

surrounding light is bright.

The full auto light switch turns on illumination for the specified

illumination duration in all modes when the watch is angled

towards the face.

What is a radio-controlled watch?

Your radio-controlled watch is designed to receive a time

calibration signal that contains standard time data, and adjust its

current time setting accordingly.

Signal is received by

built-in antenna.

Internally

Decode

Watch

Time data

Watch decodes

received data and

converts it to time

data.

Time is adjusted

according to time

data.

After the watch receives the Standard Time signal, it performs

internal calculations to determine the current time. Because of

this, there may be an error of up to one second in the

displayed time.

Calibration Signal

•The Japanese calibration signal (Call Sign: JJY) is maintained by

the National Institute of Information and Communications

Technology (NICT). It is transmitted 24 hours a day from the Mt.

Otakadoya transmitter (40kHz) located in Tamura-gun, Fukushima

Prefecture, and from the Mt. Hagane transmitter (60kHz) located

on the border between Saga Prefecture and Fukuoka Prefecture.

Though the calibration signal normally is transmitted 24 hours

a day, transmission may be interrupted occasionally due to

maintenance, lightning, etc.

Receiving the Calibration Signal

There are two methods you can use to receive the time calibration signal.

•Auto receive (Reception is performed automatically at

midnight, 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, and 4:00 each morning.)

•

Manual receive (You initiate reception using a button operation.)

•Once auto receive is successful on a particular day, the auto receive

operation for subsequent times are not performed for that day.

•

If reception is not successful for any of the normal auto receive operations

shown above, auto receive is performed one more time at 5:00 a.m.

•The watch is set up for auto receive at the factory, so all you need to

do is to place it in a location that allows good reception each night.

❚

To position the watch for optimum reception

Remove the watch from your wrist and place it somewhere so its top

(12 o’clock, where the antenna is located) is facing approximately in

the direction of the signal transmitter. Keep it away from metal objects.

Resin Band

Metal Band

•Orienting the watch so it is sideways to the transmitter makes it

more difficult to receive the signal.

•Do not move the watch while it is receiving the calibration signal.

Time Required for Reception

Signal reception takes anywhere from about two to seven minutes.

•

Under certain conditions, signal reception can take as long as 14 minutes.

•See “Configuring Auto Receive Settings” for more

information about auto receive.

❚

To perform manual receive

1. In the Timekeeping Mode, press the DD

DD

D button six

times to enter the Receive Mode.

2. Hold down the CC

CC

C button

for about two seconds.

•The watch will beep and

reception will start. The display

will flash and the receive icon

() will start to cycle through

its numbers.

❚

To interrupt reception

Press the CC

CC

C button.

•All other buttons besides C are disabled during signal reception.

When reception is successful

The watch terminates reception and adjusts the current time. Next it

beeps and then displays the date and time the adjustment was performed.

•The “ ” icon (with all numbered segments visible) on the display

also indicates successful signal reception.

When reception fails

The watch does not adjust its current time setting and displays

“ERR” when signal reception is unsuccessful for some reason.

•

The display will return to the normal timekeeping screen automatically

if you do not perform any operation for about one or two minutes.

(2 seconds)

Location

Reception is difficult and may even be impossible in the locations

described below. Avoid such locations when performing signal

reception.

•You should think of your watch operating like a radio or TV when it

is receiving the calibration signal.

If you are experiencing problems with reception, move away

from the types of locations described above to a location with

better reception, and try again.

Near high-voltage lines

Among or near buildings

Near mountains

Inside a vehicle (automobile,

train, plane, etc.)

In a location where there is

radio interference (construction

site, airport, etc.)

Next to a household appliance or

office equipment (TV, speaker,

fax, computer, cell phone, etc.)

Reception Ranges

With this setting, the watch automatically selects either the Mt.

Otakadoya signal (40kHz) or the Mt. Hagane signal (60kHz),

whichever is strongest.

Transmitter Location

•Under optimum conditions, the calibration signal should be

receivable up to 1,000 kilometers from the transmitter. Note

that the wave is relatively weak at distances greater than

500km, so reception may be poor at long distances.

•Geographic contours, nearby buildings, the season, the time of

day, can even make reception impossible even when you are

within range of the transmitter.

•Best reception is possible late at night.

Calibration Signal Reception

Precautions

•Auto receive can be performed while the watch is in the

Timekeeping Mode or World Time Mode only.

•Signal reception is not possible when any one of the following

conditions exists.

•Timer operation in progress

•Battery at Level 3 or Level 4

•Recover indicator (RECOV) displayed

•While altitude recording is being performed (Manual signal

reception can still be performed.)

•Operating any button while auto receive is in progress will cause

the watch to beep and then exit the receive operation.

•Make sure you are within the range of the calibration signal

transmitter before performing the reception operation. Remember

that geographic contours, nearby buildings, the season, the time

of day, can even make reception impossible even when you are

within range of the transmitter.

•Proper reception may be impossible if there is something blocking

the signal. If reception is unsuccessful, try again.

•This watch is designed to adjust its current time setting in

accordance with the calibration signal transmitted in Japan only.

Note that you will need to make your own adjustments when using

this watch outside of Japan, or in any area that is outside the

range of one of the receivable time calibration signal transmitters.

•When the watch is unable to adjust its time signal using the

calibration signal for some reason, timekeeping accuracy is within

±15 seconds per month.

•Strong electrostatic charge can cause timekeeping error.

•Signal reception is cancelled if an alert operation is starts while it

is being performed.

•The watch’s calendar shows dates up to the year 2099.

Attempting a receive operation after that causes an error.

When the time zone setting is TYO

• On

Selecting this setting turns on auto receive and auto

transmitter selection. The watch automatically selects either

the Otakadoya Mountain signal (40kHz) or the Hagane

Mountain signal (60kHz), whichever is strongest.

•OFF

Selecting this setting turns off auto receive and auto

transmitter selection.

Troubleshooting

The watch cannot receive the time calibration signal.

•Is the signal being transmitted?

Though the time data of the Japanese calibration signal (Call

Sign: JJY) is maintained by the Japan Standard Time Group of

the National Institute of Information and Communications

Technology (NICT), it may sometimes be interrupted for periodic

maintenance work, or because of lightning or other problems.

•Are you within the reception range of a transmitter?

See “Reception Ranges” for information about areas where the

watch can receive the signal.

•Is there something in the immediate area that may be interfering

with reception?

Even if you are within the reception range of a transmitter, objects

between you and the transmitter or electrical noise can interfere

with reception. Avoid such areas during signal reception. See

“Location” for more information.

•Do you have the correct Home City code selected?

Signal reception is not performed when the Home City setting is

any city code other than TYO (Tokyo). For details about setting

the correct Home City, see “To configure Home City settings”.

•Is auto receive turned off?

Use the procedure under “Configuring Auto Receive Settings” to

turn on auto receive.

•Barometric pressure readings (at the top of each even-numbered

hour) take precedence over auto receive. For hours when both

are scheduled, auto receive is performed about one minute past

the top of the hour.

•Is the watch in any mode other than the Timekeeping Mode or

World Time Mode during the auto receive times (midnight, 1:00

a.m., 2:00 a.m., 3:00 a.m., 4:00 a.m., and 5:00 a.m.)?

Auto receive is performed only when the watch is in the

Timekeeping Mode or World Time Mode. It is not performed if the

watch is in any other mode.

Time calibration signal reception is successful, but the hourly

time signal and current time are slightly off.

•After the watch receives the time calibration signal, it performs an

internal decoding process before updating its time setting.

Because of this, the time setting may be slightly off (within one

second).

Time calibration signal reception is successful, but the current

time is one hour fast.

•Do you have summer time (DST) turned on? Use the procedure

under “To configure Home City settings” to change the summer

time setting to OFF.

Time calibration signal reception is successful, but the current

time setting is wrong.

•Is TYO (Tokyo) selected for your Home City? For details about

setting the correct Home City, see “To configure Home City

settings”.

Can you configure auto receive settings?

•Auto receive settings cannot be configured when the Home City

setting is any city code other than TYO (Tokyo). For details about

setting the correct Home City, see “To configure Home City

settings”.

When is auto receive performed?

•Auto receive is performed in the middle of the night, when

reception conditions are best. Before going to bed at night, place

the watch near a window, with 12 o’clock facing in the general

direction of the transmitter.

How can I view the last reception date and time?

•In the Timekeeping Mode, press the D button (lower left) six

times to enter the Receive Mode.

This will display the date and time that the time calibration signal

was last received successfully. To return to the Timekeeping

Mode, press the D button again.

How can I perform manual receive?

•In the Receive Mode, hold down the C button (lower right) for

about two seconds. The watch will beep to indicate that manual

receive has started. Place it near a window, with 12 o’clock facing

in the general direction of the transmitter.

•If you cannot receive the calibration signal or if the current time

setting is incorrect after signal reception, check the current setup

of the watch.

•The following are the watch’s factory default settings, which are

configured automatically whenever you have the battery of the

watch replaced.

Your watch uses a built-in magnetic sensor to detect and display direction. You can use displayed data to determine the direction to an

objective or your current bearing.

•If you have reason to suspect that direction readings are not correct, you can calibrate the direction sensor using the procedure under

“Calibrating the Direction Sensor”.

Interpreting the Degree Value

About two seconds after you press the A button , the watch

enters the Compass Mode and displays the direction angle

and graphic pointers.

Taking a direction reading with the digital compass causes

readings to be taken each second for 20 seconds.

After the direction reading operation is complete, you can press

the A button again to restart it.

•An alarm or other beeper operation or turning on illumination by

pressing the L button while a direction reading operation is in

progress will stop it momentarily. The direction reading operation

will resume when the beeper or light operation is complete.

•Taking a direction reading in a location where terrestrial

magnetism is weak can affect direction readings.

•The full auto light switch is disabled during the 20 seconds

required to take a direction reading with the digital compass.

•After the direction reading operation is complete, press the D

button to return to the Timekeeping Mode.

If you do not perform any button operation for two or three

minutes while in the Compass Mode, the watch will return to

the Timekeeping Mode automatically.

Digital Compass Precautions

Note the following points whenever taking a direction reading with the digital compass.

❚

When taking a reading

Orient the watch so it is level, either on your wrist of off your wrist.

•Orienting the watch at an angle can cause large measurement

error.

High-voltage power lines

Electric household appliances

(TV, computer, speakers, etc.)

Permanent magnets

(magnetic necklaces, etc.)

Metal

(steel columns, lockers, etc.)

❚

Location

The wrong type of location can cause large measurement error.

Avoid the following types of locations when taking a direction

reading with the digital compass.

Near objects that generate strong magnetic force

•Move as far away from magnetic items as possible.

Inside a motor vehicle or indoors

(ferro-concrete structures, in particular)

•Accurate direction readings are not possible under these

conditions.

•Performing 2-point calibration makes it possible to obtain

relatively accurate direction readings while in a motor vehicle or

any other vehicle that can freely change direction. See “To

perform 2-point calibration” and “Using the Compass in an

Automobile” for more information.

Indoors (steel is magnetic)

Automobiles

Trains

Boats, aircraft

❚

Storage location

Keep the watch away from magnets and any other sources of

strong magnetism.

If the watch is exposed to magnetism

Exposing the watch to magnetism can affect the accuracy of its

digital compass readings. If this happens, perform 2-point

calibration (“To perform 2-point calibration”) to correct the

readings.

•If you are unsure if you watch has been exposed to

magnetism, perform 2-point calibration before taking a

direction reading.

•Exposing the watch to extremely strong magnetism can

make correct direction readings impossible even after

2-point calibration, or can cause display of abnormal values

during direction readings.

Permanent magnets

(magnetic necklaces, bag clasps, etc.)

Electric household appliances

(TV, speakers, etc.)

Calibrating the Direction Sensor

Perform one of the calibration operations described below whenever you think that the watch’s direction readings are not correct for some

reason.

•The watch will exit the flashing digital compass screen automatically if you do not perform any operation for two or three minutes.

Tips for 2-Point Calibration

The more carefully you perform 2-point calibration, the more accurate subsequent direction readings will be. If the environment where you

are using the watch changes, after you have not used the watch for some time, or any other time you feel that direction readings are not

correct, perform 2-point calibration again.

•Perform 2-point calibration in the location and under the conditions where you will be using the watch to take direction readings. If you plan

to take readings on an open field, perform calibration there, if you plan to take readings in a motor vehicle, perform calibration in the vehicle.

•You can use any two directions when performing 2-point calibration. Just make sure that the second point is exactly 180 degrees opposite

from the first point.

•When performing 2-point calibration inside an automobile or boat, turn the automobile or boat around 180 degrees when changing direction.

Northerly Calibration

With northerly calibration, you “teach” the direction sensor the

northerly direction (determined using another compass, etc.)

Northerly calibration also can be used to calibrate the direction

sensor to correct the declination angle and indicate true north,

rather than magnetic north.

•If you want to perform both 2-point calibration and northerly

calibration, perform 2-point calibration first and then

northerly calibration. Performing 2-point calibration

automatically cancels the last northerly calibration setting.

2-Point Calibration

Use 2-point calibration to calibrate the direction sensor to suit

a particular magnetic environment.

Before using the watch inside of an automobile, for

example, perform 2-point calibration to correct for the

effects of magnetism that may be present in the vehicle.

Taking Direction Readings

Determining Your Current Location

You can find out your current location by using the compass to read

the directions to two known landmarks, and then determining where

two lines, drawn in accordance with the directions, intersect on a map.

1. Find the two landmarks, read the directions to them, and record

the readings in memory.

Digital Compass Reference

❚

What is a digital compass?

The Earth is like a giant magnet with a north pole and a south

pole. The magnetism of the Earth is called “terrestrial magnetism”.

The magnetic sensor of your watch is a magnetic compass that

detects terrestrial magnetism to determine direction.

Earth

❚

Magnetic compass north reading

The northerly direction detected by a magnetic compass is

“magnetic north,” which is different from “true north”. Depending

on your location on the globe, the magnetic north indicated on a

compass is actually east or west of true north. The angle that is

formed by the difference between magnetic north and true north is

called the “declination”.

The magnetic north pole is located north of Canada, while the

magnetic south pole is located south of Australia. In Japan, the

declination angle is 5 degrees (around Kagoshima) to about 9

degrees (around Hokkaido) west.

Magnetic north pole

Magnetic south pole

Precautions During Calibration

•When performing 2-point

calibration, perform calibration of

the first point and the second

point in the same location.

•Keep as far away from possible from the vehicle’s equipment,

body, and other possible sources of magnetism.

•Depending on the condition of the magnetism of the vehicle,

proper direction readings may not be possible.

•Magnetism differs from vehicle to vehicle. Be sure to perform

2-point calibration whenever you change from one vehicle to

another.

•You should also perform 2-point calibration again if you change

position (from the driver’s seat to the back seat, etc.) within the

same vehicle.

❚

Using the Compass in an Automobile

The entire body of a vehicle may be magnetized, which will make

proper direction readings impossible. By performing 2-point

calibration, however, you can use the compass to take

approximate readings while riding in an automobile.

•See “To perform 2-point calibration” for information about how to

perform 2-point calibration.

Important!

Never try to perform 2-point calibration while driving.

Doing so is very dangerous and creates the risk of

serious accident.

1. First, park the vehicle in a

safe area where you can

turn it around 180 degrees.

2. At a location inside the

vehicle that is away from

its equipment and body,

use the 2-point calibration

screen to calibrate the first

point.

3. Turn the vehicle around 180 degrees, and then calibrate the

second point.

❚

The watch shows different direction

readings at the same location.

Cause: Unstable magnetism caused by high-voltage lines

nearby.

Remedy: Change to a different location and try again.

❚

Correct direction readings are not

possible indoors.

Cause: A nearby TV, computer, or other device is disturbing the

directionality of the magnetism.

Remedy: Change to another location or move outside and try

again. Note that correct direction readings are not

possible inside of a ferro-concrete structure.

Digital Compass Troubleshooting

Proper direction readings will not be possible in areas exposed to unstable magnetism or areas where something is interfering with

terrestrial magnetism.

Also note that accurate direction readings are not possible if you do not perform the required operations correctly. Check the following

points if you suspect that direction readings are wrong for some reason.

❚

The displayed direction is wrong.

Cause 1: You did not perform 2-point calibration.

Remedy: Correctly perform 2-point calibration.

Cause 2: There is source of strong magnetism nearby.

Remedy: If any of the following objects are nearby, move away

and try taking a direction reading again.

Electrical equipment, large bridge, structure made

with steel columns, electrical train wires,

automotive vehicle, boat, etc.

Cause 3: You are in an area where magnetism is fluctuating.

Remedy: Move away from the objects described above.

Interpreting the Pressure Tendency Graph

Example Pressure Tendency Graphs

The following examples show how you can predict upcoming

weather conditions based on the pressure tendency graph. When

using the pressure tendency graph, remember that changes in

your altitude and environmental conditions can affect air pressure

and show up as changes on the pressure tendency graph.

•Continual rise in barometric pressure

Rising barometric pressure indicates that upcoming weather will

be fair.

•Continual drop in barometric pressure

Falling barometric pressure indicates that upcoming weather will

deteriorate.

•Temperature and humidity can affect pressure graph contents.

Because of this, pressure tendency graph contents are intended

for reference only.

•The watch will not take a barometric pressure reading if a

measurement time arrives while the barometric pressure sensor is

malfunctioning, while rechargeable battery power is low, or while

the watch is in the function sleep state.

The pressure tendency graph is mainly for tracing changes in

barometric pressure, which can be used to predict upcoming

weather.

A plot may be skipped because it is outside the range of the

currently displayed graph when the change between readings

is extremely large due to movement between different

Predict weather based on changes in barometric pressure.

Barometric pressure changes along with atmospheric movements. Because of this, you can predict upcoming weather by monitoring

changes in barometric pressure.

If barometric pressure is rising ➔ Weather conditions should improve

If barometric pressure is falling ➔ Weather conditions should deteriorate

Example 1: Hiking

You can take barometric pressure

readings from morning to night the

day before you plan to go hiking or

mountain climbing, and get an idea

of what the weather will be like.

❚

Atmospheric Pressure

The barometric pressure values reported on TV, in newspapers, and in other media are actual readings taken on mountains, plains, and

the sea, which are converted to a mean sea level pressure value. They are not the barometric pressure values for mountain areas. This

makes it possible to compare barometric pressure values regardless of location. The process of correcting barometric pressure to a fixed

altitude (sea level) is called “reduction to sea level”.

Operation Guide 2891

12

The watch uses International Standard Atmosphere (ISA) values that are defined by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) to

convert readings taken by its built-in pressure sensor to relative altitude values.

Important!

When taking altitude readings, make sure that the temperature of the watch is kept as stable as possible, and is not affected by changes

in temperature. You can do this by keeping the watch in direct contact with your skin.

•Variation in the watch’s temperature due to changes in air temperature or altitude can cause altitude reading error.

What can I do with altitude readings?

Example 1: Find out how high you have hiked or climbed.

Start an altitude reading operation at

the foot of the mountain as you start

off, and find out how many meters

you climbed when you get to the top.

Example 2: Determine how high above sea level your house is.

When you travel from your home to

the beach, you can measure the

relative change in altitude and

determine how high your home is

above sea level.

To take an altitude reading

In the Timekeeping Mode, Compass Mode, or Pressure/Temperature Mode, press the C button to enter the Altitude Mode. The watch will

measure your current altitude and display it.

Altitude

Display Range: –10,000 to 10,000 meters

Display Unit: 5 meters

Measurement Range: –700 to 10,000 meters

•Though the display range covers 20,000 meters (from –10,000 to

10,000), the measurement range covers only 10,700 meters

(–700 to 10,000).

•The altitude values produced by the watch are relative altitude

values. This means they are relative to a reference altitude value

that you preset. Even when you are at a location that is above sea

level, the watch may display a negative value (indicating you are

currently lower than your reference value).

•The display shows “– – –” when the measured value is outside the

Setting a Reference Altitude

Use the following procedure to set a reference altitude in accordance with a reading produced by another device or an altitude value

obtained from a marker or other source.

Altitudes displayed by your watch can be affected by changes in atmospheric pressure and temperature, and by changes in

temperature at different altitudes. Because of this, it is always a good idea to use the procedure below to update the reference

altitude value in accordance with altitude values indicated on markers along your route.

•Holding down either button scrolls the setting at high speed.

•Pressing the C and A buttons at the same time returns to

the factory default setting, which is indicated by “OFF” for the

If temperature accuracy is a priority, remove the watch from

your wrist so it is not affected by your body temperature.

•Note, however, that removing the watch from your wrist will make

altitude readings more prone to being affected by changes in air

temperature. Because of this, the chance of altitude measurement

error increases slightly when the watch is removed from the wrist.

•After removing the watch from your wrist, it takes about 20 to 30

minutes before the temperature of the watch becomes the same

as the air temperature.

Relationship between Altitude,

Barometric Pressure, and Temperature

Generally, both barometric pressure and temperature are lower,

the greater the altitude from sea level. This means you can

determine your altitude if you know the current air temperature.

Your watch uses International Standard Atmosphere (ISA) data on

the relationship between altitude and barometric pressure that is

defined by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) to

estimate your current altitude and displays a relative altitude

value.

Altitude Reading Precautions

Readings that are close to the absolute altitude above sea level

are not possible under the following conditions.

•During volatile weather conditions

•During sudden temperature changes

•When the watch is being subjected to strong impact

❚

Altitude Terminology

There are two different methods that can be used to express

altitude.

Altitude above Sea Level

This is an absolute measurement of altitude above sea level.

Relative Altitude

This expresses the difference in altitude between two locations

(altitude differential).

•Your watch measures relative altitude.

Altitude Reading Precautions

•Your watch converts barometric pressure readings into altitude

values. Because of this, changes in local barometric pressure can

cause different results for altitude readings taken in the same

location.

Example: Even if you set zero for the reference altitude at

ground level, a difference in atmospheric pressure can

produce different altitude readings.

If you set a reference altitude of zero at ground level on

December 28 (fair, high barometric pressure of 1,030 hPa),

the same location will show an altitude of 335 meters on

December 31 (rain, low barometric pressure of 990 hPa).

•Accurate readings are not possible when barometric pressure and

temperature are fluctuating widely due to sudden and severe

changes in the weather.

Example: When you approach a low pressure area while

mountain climbing, the drop in pressure produces

altitude readings that are higher than the actual

altitude.

•To avoid the effect of sudden temperature changes on readings,

wear the watch so it is in direct contact with your wrist while taking

readings.

•Remember that the air inside of a commercial aircraft is

pressurized. Because of this, the readings produced by this watch

will not match the altitude readings announced by the flight crew.

•This watch is designed to take altitude readings at preset

intervals. Never try to use it for altitude readings while engaged in

the following types of sports, during which altitude can change

very rapidly over a short time span.

Example: Skydiving, hang gliding, paragliding, gyrocopter

flying, glider flying, etc.

The watch disables the sensor operation and displays the indicator described below whenever a sensor malfunctions or when faulty

contact makes correct readings impossible.

When sensor malfunction occurs

•When a pressure sensor or direction sensor occurs,

“ERR” flashes on the display for about two seconds

and then readings stop.

•When sensor malfunction occurs, take your watch to

your nearest CASIO Service Center to have it

checked.

If “ERR” appears

1. If “ERR” appears while you are taking a pressure, altitude, temperature, or direction reading, try taking the reading again. If “ERR”

appears again, it probably means that the sensor is malfunctioning. Take your watch to the nearest CASIO Service Center to have it

checked.

•If “ERR” disappears from the display right away, check, it could indicate the following.

2. Regardless of whether the current battery level is Level 2 or higher, the watch may determine that the current power level is not enough to

driver the sensor in the Compass, Pressure, or Altitude Mode. If this happens, “ERR” will appear on the display and the sensor will not

take the reading.

•This does not indicate malfunction. In this case, normal operation should return after battery power recovers.

Application: Obtaining an altitude

reading with the watch that is close to

the absolute altitude above sea level

The best way to obtain an altitude reading with the watch (relative

altitude) that is close to the absolute altitude above sea level is to

set altitude values obtained from markers provided at the

seashore or along a mountain path as your reference altitude

value. This should be done immediately before using the watch to

take altitude readings.

•Note that daily fluctuations in atmospheric pressure affect altitude

readings, so you should set the reference altitude just before you

are ready to take readings.

Example: To set an indicated altitude of 400 meters

above sea level as the reference altitude

1. At Point A in the illustration, set the reference altitude to

400 meters, which is the absolute altitude above sea

level indicated on a marker provided along the trail.

2. Take altitude readings from Point A to Point B.

3. If there is another absolute altitude marker at Point B,

update the reference altitude.

•Be sure to update the

reference altitude at Point B if

the value displayed by the

watch is different from the

absolute altitude indicated by

the marker along the trail at

Point B.
