When the end of the countdown is reached while auto repeat is on, the alarm
sounds, but the countdown starts again automatically whenever the countdown
reaches zero. You can stop timing by pressing L, and manually reset to the
starting countdown time by pressing B.
Normally, an alarm tone sounds for about 10 seconds when the end of the
countdown is reached. If you use auto repeat with start time of 10 seconds or
less, the alarm tone sounds for only one second.
Frequent use of auto repeat with a short countdown time can reduce the
charge of the storage battery and cause the countdown time alarm to become
disabled, so it does not sound.

About Auto Display
Auto Display is a demonstration feature that continually changes the contents
of the digital display. Note that you cannot use any of the watch’s other functions
while Auto Display is operating.
Important!
•
Storing the watch for long periods in an area where there is no light or wearing
it in such a way that it is blocked from exposure to light can cause storage
battery power to run down. Be sure that the watch is normally exposed to
light whenever possible.
To turn off Auto Display
•
This watch employs a solar cell that converts light into electricity that charges
a built-in storage battery. Normally, the storage battery should not need
replacement, but after very long use over a number of years, the storage
battery may lose its ability to achieve a full charge. Should you notice problems
with getting the storage battery to a full charge, contact your dealer or CASIO
distributor about having the storage battery replaced.
The storage battery should be replaced with a CASIO-specified ML-2020
battery only. Other storage batteries can cause damage to the watch.
Be sure to put the watch into its Sleep Mode and keep in an area normally
exposed to light when storing it for long periods.This helps to keep the storage
battery from going dead.
Hold down A for about two seconds until the watch beeps.
To turn on Auto Display
1. In any mode (except while figures are flashing on the display for input), hold
down C for about two seconds to enter the Sleep Mode.
2. Hold down A for about two seconds until the watch beeps. This indicates
that Auto Display is on.
•
•
•
•
•
You cannot turn onAuto Display while a setting screen (indicated by flashing
digits) is on the display.
Leaving the watch in a dark area can cause Auto Display operation to stop.
Normal operation should resume when the watch is again exposed to light.
Auto Display cannot be turned on while the storage battery is at Level 4 or
Level 5. Auto Display also turns off automatically whenever the storage battery
drops to Level 4 or Level 5.
