Operating Instructions
Wearing the Watch
Fasten the triple-fold clasp securely around your wrist. Ensure the watch is snug but not too tight, allowing for comfortable movement and proper air circulation.
Water Resistance
Your Casio watch is rated for 50-meter water resistance. This means it is suitable for everyday use, such as hand-washing, rain, and short periods of recreational swimming. It is not designed for diving, snorkeling, or high-impact water sports. Avoid operating the crown or buttons while the watch is wet.
Maintenance
Cleaning Your Watch
To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe it regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For the stainless steel band, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Avoid using chemical cleaners or abrasive materials.
Battery Replacement
This watch operates on 1 AA battery, which is included. When the watch stops or the movement becomes erratic, the battery may need replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and water resistance integrity.

Troubleshooting
- Watch Not Running: Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If it is, the battery may need replacement.
- Date Not Changing: Ensure the time is set correctly, especially the AM/PM cycle. The date typically changes around midnight.
- Condensation Inside Watch: This indicates a loss of water resistance. Seek professional service immediately to prevent damage to the movement.
