C or Fahrenheit F as the display unit for the measured temperature value See To select the temperature barometric pressure and altitude units See Barometer and Thermometer Precautions for important precautions Barometric Pressure Graph Barometric pressure indicates changes in the atmosphere By monitoring these changes you can predict the weather with reasonable accuracy This watch takes barometric pressure measurements automatically every two hours at the top of each even numbered hour regardless of its current mode Measurement results are used to produce barometric pressure graph and barometric pressure differential pointer readings The barometric pressure graph shows readings of previous measurements for up to 30 hours The horizontal axis of the graph represents time with each dot standing for two hours The rightmost dot represents the most recent reading The vertical axis of the graph represents barometric pressure with each dot standing for the relative difference between its reading and that of the dots next to it Each dot represents 1hPa The following shows how to interpret the data that appears on the barometric pressure graph pani A rising graph generally means improving weather A falling graph generally means deteriorating weather Note that if there are sudden changes in weather or temperature the graph line of past measurements may run off the top o
5. The following describes what you should do to give priority to either altitude or temperature e To give altitude measurement priority leave the watch on your wrist or in any other location where the temperature of the watch is kept constant e To give temperature measurement priority remove the watch from your wrist and allow it to hang freely from your bag or in another location where it is not exposed to direct sunlight Note that removing the watch from your wrist can momentarily affect pressure sensor readings CASIO Power Supply This watch is equipped with a solar cell and a special rechargeable battery secondary battery that is charged by the electrical power produced by the solar cell The illustration shown below shows how you should position the watch for charging Example Orient the watch so its face is ly Solar cell pointing at a light source The illustration shows how to position a watch with a resin band Note that charging efficiency drops when any part of the solar cell is blocked by clothing etc You should try to keep the watch outside of your sleeve as much as possible Charging is reduced significantly if the face is only partially covered J 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 exposed to bright li
