How to operate module 5429

Short steps in our words. The buttons are lettered as in Casio's operation guide, where each task's page is given.

Set the time and date

  1. In the Calendar Mode, unscrew the crown and pull it out to the second click: the second hand moves to 12 o'clock and the mode hand to SU.
  2. Turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands.
  3. Press A, then press B to change the month and turn the crown to change the day.
  4. Press A and turn the crown to set the tens digit of the year.
  5. Press A and turn the crown to set the ones digit of the year.
  6. Push the crown back in on a time signal at the top of a minute, and screw it in.

Good to know

From any other mode, hold A for about two seconds to go to the Calendar Mode.

While it is connected with a phone running CASIO WATCH+, the watch takes its time and date from the phone; setting it by hand is for when it is not connected.

To take the time from a paired phone now, open CASIO WATCH+ and hold C for about 0.5 seconds: the second hand points to R, then to the Bluetooth mark when it connects, and the time is adjusted.

Setting the time by hand on the watch cancels the automatic switching between standard time and summer time.

The Dual Time on the small dial moves along with the time; crown operation is disabled while the mode hand or the Dual Time hands are moving.

Turning the crown quickly several times moves the hands fast; turn it the other way or press any button to stop them.

If you do nothing for about two minutes with the crown pulled out, the crown stops working: push it in and pull it out again.

The crown screws down: unscrew it (towards you) before pulling it out, and screw it back in as you push it in, to keep the watch water resistant.

Summer time

  1. Open CASIO WATCH+ on your phone.
  2. On the watch, hold C for about 0.5 seconds until the second hand points to R; it moves to the Bluetooth mark when the watch connects.
  3. In the app, open Watch settings, then Summer time setting.
  4. Pick Auto (switches by itself), OFF (always standard time) or ON (always summer time), and follow the screen.

Good to know

The watch has no button setting for summer time; it is set from the app.

With Auto, once the watch has been connected it keeps switching between standard time and summer time even when it is no longer connected.

The summer time of the World Time city is chosen the same way under World time in the app.

Change time zone when you travel

  1. Before you leave, set the Dual Time on the small dial to the time at your destination: pick a World Time city in CASIO WATCH+, or set it with the crown (pull it out to the first click, turn it in 15-minute steps, push it back in).
  2. When the airline asks, hold A for about four seconds until the mode hand points to the airplane mark (Airplane Mode).
  3. When you arrive, hold A for about four seconds again to leave the Airplane Mode.
  4. Hold B for about three seconds to swap the current location time and the Dual Time, so the main hands show the destination time.

Good to know

The watch has no Home City setting; the swap can also be done in the app under World time, Home time and World time.

Only the time is swapped, not the date.

The app offers about 300 World Time cities.

Set the alarm

  1. In the Calendar Mode, press A until the mode hand points to AL, after the Stopwatch Mode.
  2. Unscrew the crown and pull it out to the first click: this switches the alarm on.
  3. Turn the crown to set the alarm time on the small dial.
  4. Push the crown back in and screw it in.
  5. Press A once to go back to the Calendar Mode.

Good to know

In the Alarm Mode, press B to switch the alarm on or off; the second hand points to ON or OFF.

When the alarm sounds, press any button to stop it.

The alarm does not sound in Level 2 power saving.

You can also set the alarm with CASIO WATCH+ under Alarm.

  5. Press A and turn the crown to put the second hand on 12 o'clock.
  6. Press A and turn the crown until 1 is in the center of the day indicator.
  7. Push the crown back in and screw it in.

Good to know

Strong magnetism or impact can knock the hands or the day indicator out of alignment.

If the hands are off even though the time is adjusted from the phone, you can also realign them in CASIO WATCH+ under Watch settings, Adjusting home positions.
