Casio MA1409-EA Watch User Manual


 
Charging the Watch
When you are not wearing the watch, put
it in a location where it is exposed to
bright light.
While you are wearing the watch, make
sure that its face (solar panel) is not
blocked from the light by the sleeve of
your clothing. Power generation
efficiency is reduced even when the face
of the watch is blocked only partially.
NOYES
Important!
If the second hand stops for
some time after the watch is
continuously exposed to light, it
could mean that charging is not
possible due to over-discharge.
Request chargeable
(secondary) battery
replacement by your original
retailer or authorized CASIO
service center.
Depending on light intensity and
local conditions, the watch may
become hot to the touch when
exposed to light for charging.
Take care to avoid burn injury
after charging. Also, avoid
charging the watch under high-
temperature conditions like the
ones described below.
On the dashboard of a vehicle
parked in the sun
Near an incandescent light
bulb or other source of heat
Under direct sunlight or in
other hot areas for long
periods
Note
Exposing the watch face to light
after the battery goes dead will
cause the second hand to
revolve counterclockwise until it
stops at second 57. This
indicates charging has started.
A fully charged watch can
operate for approximately
seven months without further
charging. Watch operation will
stop approximately 20 days
after the battery goes low.

Checking the Charge Level

Important!
Should battery go low or go

possible.
