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.
Important!
The fishing/hunting time data, sunrise and sunset data, and moon phase indicator
produced by this watch are all based on calculations that use the watch's current time,
date, and Home Site settings. Because of this, you should make sure that the current
date and time, and your Home Site data are all correct before using such data.
• When fishing or hunting, always take proper precautions to ensure your own
personal safety and the personal safety of others around you.
• Note that the fishing/hunting time data, sunrise and sunset data, and moon phase
indicator are all based on calculated values. They are provided only for reference
purposes.
• See the "Timekeeping" section of this manual for information about setting the
current time and date, and about specifying your Home Site.

longitude) is configured correctly.
• The GMT differential is a value that indicates the time difference between Greenwich
Mean Time and the time zone where a city is located.
• Note that you must add one hour to the current time setting and the GMT differential
of your time zone whenever you change to Daylight Saving Time (summer time).
Subtract one hour when you change back to Standard Time.

Your watch provides you with information about favorable
fishing/hunting times and other data (Moon phase and
age) at your Home Site for a particular date. You can even
configure a fishing/hunting alarm that alerts you when a
favorable fishing/hunting time has been reached.
• The fishing/hunting times shown by your watch are the
times when the moon is at its highest point (upper
transit), lowest point (lower transit), furthest point the
east (east transit), and furthest point to the west (west
transit) of your Home Site. These are favorable times for
fishing and hunting.
• For more details about the fishing/hunting times, see
"Fishing/Hunting Time Calculation".
• See "Moon Phase Indicator" for information about the
Moon phase indicator.
