Using the Sports Calorie Meter Functions

The Sports Calorie Meter calculates the number of

calories you consume while exercising. The calculation is

based on the basic data you input, the type of activity you

are performing, and the duration of the activity. You can

also configure the watch to store calorie values in

memory, to sound an alarm to let you know when the

calorie target you specify is reached, and to display the

countdown to your calorie target.

· Calorie measurements are performed in the Calorie

Meter Mode, which you enter by pressing C.

Before Using the Calorie Meter

· Before using the calorie meter for the first time, be sure

to set your "basic data" and configure the calorie

memory timing.

Basic Data: See "Inputting Basic Data".

Calorie Memory Timing

*: See "To set the time and date".

* Calorie memory timing is the time of day that data measured in the Calorie Meter

Mode is stored in memory. You can specify a timing of midnight or 2:00 a.m. Select

2:00 a.m. if you perform a calorie meter operation after midnight. The initial factory

default setting (which is also set when the battery is replaced) is midnight.

Operation Guide 2802

· After you input your basic data and specify the calorie memory timing, you should

also specify the name of activity you are performing. Calories you burn are then

calculated in accordance with settings you configure. For details, see "Activities" and

"Calorie Measurements".

· Calorie Meter Mode data is stored in memory using the current Timekeeping Mode

time and date. Do not change the time and date setting while a calorie measurement

operation is in progress.

· See "Exercising for Optimal Health" for important information about using Sports

Calorie Meter functions effectively.

Calorie Measurements

You need to start and stop the calorie measurement operation when you start and

stop exercising, playing a sport, etc.

The watch displays the elapsed time, number of calories burned, and the calorie

target graph while a calorie measurement is in progress. The watch beeps for five

seconds when the number of calories burned reaches the calorie target you preset.

· Your burned calorie value is stored in memory (as daily data) when you stop the

calorie measurement operation.

· Note that the calorie measurement operation continues even if you exit the Calorie

Meter Mode. If you exit the Calorie Meter Mode with data on the display while the

measurement operation is stopped, the data will still be on the display when you

next enter the Calorie Meter Mode. This means you can accumulate data for multiple

calorie measurement operations during a single day.

· If you are engaged in an activity that has rest periods or if you perform more than

one activity and want to keep track of the cumulative elapsed time and calorie totals

in the Calorie Meter Mode, do not clear the display to all zeroes when you stop

measurement during rest periods, etc.

If you want to keep track of data for each individual session, clear the display to all

zeroes each time you stop the measurement operation.

To display the cumulative total data of multiple measurements:

Start

¡ Stop; Start ¡ Stop; Start ¡ Stop.....Clear (all-zero reset)

To display the data for each measurement:

Start

¡ Stop ¡ Clear; Start ¡ Stop ¡ Clear; .......

To perform calorie measurement

1. In the Calorie Meter Mode, use D to select the name

of the activity you are about to perform.

· Note that you cannot change the selected activity

once the calorie measurement operation starts. To

change the activity, you first need to press E to stop

the measurement operation.

· Pressing A instead of D will scroll through the

contents of Favorite Activity memory (if it contains any

activities). For more information, see "Using Favorite

Activity Memory".

2. Press E to start the calorie measurement operation,

and then start your activity.

· While the measurement operation is stopped, the display alternates at two-second

intervals between the current calorie value and the activity name. In this case, only

the first four characters of the activity name are displayed, without scrolling.

· Pressing E to stop the measurement operation causes the data to be stored in

memory. Pressing B while measurement is stopped clears the display to all zeroes.

· You can use the Recall Mode to view data stored in memory.

Note

· The displayed current calorie value is updated every 10 seconds.

· During measurement, the target graph shows how much progress you have made

toward achieving your target calorie level for the current date. One segment of the

graph is darkened each time you burn 10% of the total target calorie amount for the

day. No segments are darkened when your current calorie value is less than 10% of

the target total.

· The target graph for the current date is also displayed in the Timekeeping Mode.

· You can view the calorie target countdown in the Timekeeping Mode. See "To view

Timekeeping Mode sub-screens" for more information.

· The watch performs either of the following operations whenever the calorie memory

timing you specified is reached.

If Calorie Measurement is in progress: The current data is stored automatically in

memory, and measurement is restarted from zero.

If Calorie Measurement is stopped: Current measurement data is stored in calorie

memory and the Calorie Meter Mode display is reset to all zeroes.

· A measurement operation is stopped automatically whenever the elapsed time

exceeds 23 hours.

· Any time the calorie total exceeds 9,999.99 kcal (or 99,999.9 kJ), calorie

measurement restarts from zero.

· If you make an operational mistake while performing a calorie measurement

(selecting the wrong activity, forgetting to stop measurement during a break, etc.),

you can delete the data by stopping the measurement operation and deleting the

daily record for the current date. Next, re-start measurement for the current date

from zero. See "Recall Mode" for information about deleting the current date's data.

Using Favorite Activity Memory

The watch remembers up to five of the last activities you selected when you

performed past calorie measurement operations. You can use Favorite Activity

memory to select your most often used activities quickly and easily.

· To display Favorite Activity memory contents, press A in the Calorie Meter Mode

while measurement is stopped.

· An activity is not added to Favorite Activity memory if it is already there.

· If Favorite Activity memory is already full, performing a measurement operation with

a new activity causes the oldest Favorite Activity to be replaced with the new one.

· You can use the following procedure to clear Favorite Activity memory contents.

To clear Favorite Activity memory contents

1. In the Calorie Meter Mode, make sure no calorie measurement operation is being

performed.

2. Press A and D at the same time.

Daily Record

Daily record data also includes calories burned and elapsed times for up to seven

activities that were selected during the current date and the previous date.

Data for the current date's daily record is stored whenever you stop a measurement

operation in the Calorie Meter Mode. The current date's daily record expires (becomes

yesterday's record) at time you have specified as the calorie memory timing.

· If a daily record is stored while there are already seven daily records in memory, the

oldest record is deleted automatically to make room for the new record.

Weekly records

Weekly records contain the following information for up to 11 previous weeks of

Calorie Meter Mode measurements.

Target graph, calories burned, elapsed time (hours, minutes, seconds)

Data for a weekly record is stored on Monday morning at the time you have specified

as the calorie memory timing.

· If a weekly record is stored while there are already 11 weekly records in memory,

the oldest record is deleted automatically to make room for the new record.

Cumulative record

The cumulative record keeps a running total of calories burned and elapsed time

(hours and minutes) since the cumulative record was last cleared.

Data is saved to the cumulative record each day at the time you have specified as the

calorie memory timing.

Note

· Data save operations are based on the current time and date as kept in the

Timekeeping Mode.

About the Auto Light Switch

Turning on the auto light switch causes the backlight to turn on, whenever you position

your wrist as described below in any mode. Note that this watch features a "Full Auto

EL Light", so the auto light switch operates only when available light is below a certain

level. It does not turn on the backlight under bright light.

Moving the watch to a position that is parallel to the ground and then tilting it

towards you more than 40 degrees causes the backlight to turn on.

· Wear the watch on the outside of your wrist.

More than

Parallel to

ground

Warning!

· Always make sure you are in a safe place whenever you are reading the

display of the watch using the auto light switch. Be especially careful when

running or engaged in any other activity that can result in accident or injury.

Also take care that sudden illumination by the auto light switch does not

surprise or distract others around you.

· When you are wearing the watch, make sure that its auto light switch is turned

off before riding on a bicycle or operating a motorcycle or any other motor

vehicle. Sudden and unintended operation of the auto light switch can create a

distraction, which can result in a traffic accident and serious personal injury.

To turn the auto light switch on and off

In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down L for about two seconds to toggle the auto light

switch on (

displayed) or off (

not displayed).

· The auto light switch on indicator (

Battery

This watch is equipped with a solar cell and a

rechargeable battery (secondary battery) that is charged

by the electrical power produced by the solar cell. The

illustration shown nearby shows how you should position

the watch for charging.

Example: Orient the watch so its face is pointing at a light

source.

· Note that charging efficiency drops when any part of the

solar cell is blocked by clothing, etc.

· The illustration shows how to position a watch with a

resin band.

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 rechargeable battery

power to run down. Be sure that the watch is normally exposed to bright light

whenever possible.

Solar cell

· This watch employs a solar cell that converts light into electricity, which charges a

built-in rechargeable battery. Normally, the rechargeable battery should not need

replacement, but after very long use over a number of years, the rechargeable

battery may lose its ability to achieve a full charge. If you experience problems

getting the rechargeable battery to a full charge, contact your dealer or CASIO

distributor about having the rechargeable battery replaced.

· The rechargeable battery should be replaced with a CASIO-specified CTL1616

battery only. Other rechargeable batteries can cause damage to the watch.

· All data stored in memory is deleted, and the current time and all other settings

return to their initial factory defaults whenever battery power drops to Level 4 and

when you have the battery replaced.

· Turn on the watch's Power Saving function and keep it in an area normally exposed

to bright light when storing it for long periods. This helps to keep the rechargeable

battery from going dead.

Battery Power Indicator and RECOV Indicator

The battery power indicator on the display shows you the current status of the

rechargeable battery's power.

· The flashing

CHARGE indicator at Level 3 tells you that battery power is very

low, and that exposure to bright light for charging is required as soon as possible.

· At Level 4, all functions are disabled and settings return to their initial factory

defaults. Functions are enabled once again after the rechargeable battery is

charged, but you need to set the time and date, after the battery reaches Level 3

from Level 4. You will not be able to set any of the other settings until the battery

reaches Level 2 after dropping to Level 4.

· Display indicators reappear as soon as the battery is charged from Level 4 to Level 3.

· Leaving the watch in direct sunlight or some other very strong light source can

cause the battery power indicator to temporarily show a reading that is higher than

the actual battery level. The correct battery power indicator should appear after a

few minutes.

· If you use the backlight or the alarm a number of times during a short period,

RECOV appears on the display, and the backlight and beeper tone become disabled

until battery power recovers. After some time, battery power will recover and RECOV

will disappear, indicating that the above functions are enabled again.

· If RECOV appears frequently, it probably means that remaining battery power is low.

Leave the watch in bright light to allow it to charge.

Charging Precautions

Certain charging conditions can cause the watch to become very hot. Avoid leaving

the watch in the areas described below whenever charging its rechargeable battery.

Also note that allowing the watch to become very hot can cause its liquid crystal

display to black out. The appearance of the LCD should become normal again when

the watch returns to a lower temperature.

Warning!

Leaving the watch in bright light to charge its rechargeable battery can cause it

to become quite hot. Take care when handling the watch to avoid burn injury.

The watch can become particularly hot when exposed to the following

conditions for long periods.

· On the dashboard of a car parked in direct sunlight

· Too close to an incandescent lamp

· Under direct sunlight

4. While a setting is flashing, use E (+) or A () to change it.

· To set an alarm that does not include a day of the week (daily alarm), set ---

for the day of the week. Press E or A until the --- mark appears (between

SUN and SAT) while the day of the week setting is flashing.

· When setting the alarm time using the 12-hour format, take care to set the time

correctly as a.m. (A indicator) or p.m. (P indicator).

5. Press B to exit the setting screen.

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.

Timekeeping

· Resetting the seconds to 00 while the current count is in the range of 30 to 59

causes the minutes to be increased by 1. In the range of 00 to 29, the seconds are

reset to 00 without changing the minutes.

· With the 12-hour format, the P (PM) indicator appears on the display for times in the

range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and the A (AM) indicator appears for times in the range

of midnight to 11:59 a.m.

· With the 24-hour format, times are displayed in the range of 0:00 to 23:59, without

any indicator.

· The watch's built-in full automatic calendar automatically makes allowances for

different month lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no

reason to change it except when battery power drops to Level 4.

Auto Return Features

If you leave a screen with flashing digits on the display for two or three minutes without

performing any operation, the watch automatically exits the setting screen.

Scrolling

The E and A buttons are used in various modes and setting screens to scroll

through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a scroll

operation scrolls through the data at high speed.

Power Saving Function

When turned on, the Power Saving function automatically puts the watch into a sleep

state whenever it is left for a certain period in an area where it is dark. The table below

shows how watch functions are affected by the Power Saving function.

· Wearing the watch inside the sleeve of clothing can cause it to enter the sleep state.

· The watch will not enter the sleep state while the Timekeeping Mode time is

between 6:00 AM and 9:59 PM. If the watch is already in the sleep state when the

time reaches 6:00 AM, however, it will remain in the sleep state.

· The watch will not enter the sleep state while it is in the Calorie Meter Mode or

Stopwatch Mode.

To recover from the sleep state

Perform any one of the following operations.

· Angle the watch towards your face for reading.

To turn Power Saving on and off

1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down B until the

seconds start to flash, which indicates the setting

screen.

2. Press C eight times until the Power Saving on/off

screen appears.

3. Press E to toggle Power Saving on (ON) and off

(OFF).

4. Press B to exit the setting screen.

· The Power Saving on indicator (SAVE) is on the display

in all modes while the Power Saving is turned on.

Backlight Precautions

· 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 backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.

· 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.

· Frequent use of the backlight runs down the battery.

· The backlight may not light if the face of the watch is

more than 15 degrees above or below parallel. Make

sure that the back of your hand is parallel to the ground.

· The backlight turns off after the preset display

illumination duration (see "To set the time and date"),

even if you keep the watch pointed towards your face.

More than 15 degrees

too high

· Static electricity or magnetic force can interfere with proper operation of the auto

light switch. If the backlight does not light, try moving the watch back to the starting

position (parallel with the ground) and then tilt it back toward you again. If this does

not work, drop your arm all the way down so it hangs at your side, and then bring it

back up again.

· Under certain conditions, the backlight may not light until about one second after you

turn the face of the watch towards you. This does not necessarily indicate

malfunction of the backlight.

· You may notice a very faint clicking sound coming from the watch when it is shaken

back and forth. This sound is caused by mechanical operation of the auto light

switch, and does not indicate a problem with the watch.

Exercising for Optimal Health

Exercises that provide optimal health benefits must be safe and allow you maintain or

exceed your maximum oxygen uptake level. The type of exercise that does this best is

aerobic exercise.

During aerobic exercise you are able to breathe normally, so you generate energy

while taking in oxygen. The body adapts so it can intake and utilize oxygen efficiently

under the stress of the exercise, and so maximum oxygen uptake is increased.

Amount of Exercise Required for Good Health

The following is the amount of exercise (in terms of energy consumed) required daily

for good health.

Engineers, Office Staff

Men: 200 to 300kcal

Women: 100 to 200kcal

Manufacturing, Sales, Service Staff

Men: 100 to 200kcal

Women: About 100kcal

Exercise Duration and Frequency

Continuous Duration: At least 10 minutes of continuous exercise, which is the time

required for the body to respond aerobically to the exercise.

Total Time Per Day: At least 20 minutes

Frequency: Daily

Exercise Precautions

· When exercising for health, harder is not necessarily better, nor is longer necessarily

better. In fact, overdoing exercise can even be detrimental to good health.

· If you are already under the care of a physician, be sure to exercise in accordance

with your physician's instructions.

· Before starting any exercise program, consult a physician, even if you feel you are in

good health.

Exercise Intensity

The relative intensity of an exercise can be expressed in terms of the relative

metabolic rate (RMR) or the metabolic equivalent (MET).

····· RMR (Relative Metabolic Rate)

The relative metabolic rate is a value that represents additional energy consumed

during exercise as a multiple of basal metabolism. RMR can be calculated using the

following formula.

RMR = (Metabolic Energy Expenditure During Exercise) (Metabolic Energy

Expenditure at Rest) / Basal Metabolism

····· MET (Metabolic Equivalent)

The metabolic equivalent is a value that represents energy consumed during exercise

(including metabolic energy expenditure at rest) as a multiple of basal metabolic

energy expenditure at rest. MET can be calculated using the following formula.

MET = Metabolic Energy Expenditure During Exercise / Metabolic Energy Expenditure

at Rest

The following formula can be used to convert between MET and RMR values.

MET

0.83

× RMR + 1

The activity intensity values used by this watch are MET or MET values converted

from RMR values.

Basal Metabolism: Minimum energy consumption required for life

Metabolic Energy Expenditure at Rest: Energy expenditure when sitting quietly

Metabolic Energy Expenditure During Exercise: Total energy expenditure due to

activity
