Important!
Keep the watch's face exposed to light as much as possible (page E-4).
This manual provides a brief overview of your watch.
Important Altimeter and Compass Information!
The Altimeter Mode displays relative altitude based on barometric pressure readings. Readings taken
at different times at the same location may produce different values due to changes in pressure. The
value displayed by the watch may be different from the actual elevation and/or sea level elevation of
your location.
When using the Altimeter Mode for mountain climbing or other activities, it is highly recommended that
you check a map, local altitude indications, or some other source for your current correct altitude, and
that you regularly calibrate the Altimeter Mode.
When using the watch compass for serious trekking or climbing always take along another compass
to confirm readings. If watch readings are different from the other compass, perform bidirectional
calibration of the watch compass.
Direction readings and calibration will not be possible if the watch is near a permanent magnet
(magnetic accessory, etc.), metal objects, high-voltage wires, aerial wires, or electrical appliances (TV,
computer, cellphone, etc.)
Calibration: Operation Guide available at the CASIO website.
