Reference
This section contains more detailed and technical information about watch
operation. It also contains important precautions and notes about the various
features and functions of this watch.
Auto Display
Auto Display continually changes the contents of the
digital display. Note that you cannot use any of the
watch's other functions (except for the backlight)
while Auto Display is turned on.
To turn off Auto Display
Press A or B to turn off Auto Display. This returns
to the Timekeeping Mode.
To turn on Auto Display
In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down B for about one to two seconds until the
watch beeps.
Auto Return Features
• After you perform an operation in any mode, clicking ● returns to the
Timekeeping Mode.
• If you leave the watch in the e-DATA MEMORY Mode for two or three minutes
without performing any operation, it automatically changes to the
Timekeeping Mode.
• If you leave a screen with flashing digits on the display for two or three
minutes without performing any operation, the watch automatically saves any
settings you have made up to that point and exits the setting screen. If you
leave the e-DATA MEMORY Mode setting screen with the cursor flashing for
about two or three minutes, the watch automatically exits the setting screen
and switches to the Timekeeping Mode.
Data and Setting Scrolling
In various modes and setting screens, you rock ▲ and ▼ to scroll through data
on the display. In most cases, holding the control button in either direction
during a scroll operation scrolls through the data at high speed.
Initial Screens
When you enter the e-DATA MEMORY, World Time, Countdown Timer, or
Alarm Mode, the data you were viewing when you last exited the mode
appears first.
Backlight Precautions
In any mode, press L to illuminate the display for about two seconds.
• The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after
very long use.
• The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed
under direct sunlight.
• The watch may emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated.
This is due to vibration of the EL panel used for illumination, and does not
indicate malfunction.
• The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
• Frequent use of the backlight shortens the battery life.
About the Battery
The BATT indicator appears on the display whenever

sound and the backlight does not light while battery
power is low.
• Normal watch operation will return after the BATT
indicator disappears. If it does not disappear, have
the battery replaced.
ALWAYS LEAVE BATTERY REPLACEMENT UP TO THE
DEALER WHERE YOU PURCHASED THE WATCH OR
TO AN AUTHORIZED CASIO DISTRIBUTOR.
RECOVER Indicator
Certain functions consume large amounts of battery power, and using them too
much can cause a sudden momentary drop in battery power. The watch
monitors how much you use these high consumption functions, and displays
the RECOVER indicator whenever it determines you are using them too much.
• Backlight and alarm operations are disabled while the RECOVER indicator is
on the display.
• The following are the trigger values for functions that are monitored for battery usage.

• The RECOVER indicator appears whenever any of the above operations is
performed individually in succession for the number of times indicated by its
trigger value.
• The RECOVER indicator also appears when a combination of functions
reaches a trigger value.
Examples:50 backlight operations +100 alarm operations, 25 backlight
operations +30 alarm operations +600 button input tone
operations, etc.
• The RECOVER indicator disappears from the display after the battery
recovers its normal power level after it has a chance to "rest."
