Solar Charging

This watch runs on power supplied from a rechargeable (secondary) battery that is charged by a solar panel. The solar panel is integrated into the face of the watch, and power is generated whenever the face is exposed to light.

● Charging the Watch

When you are not wearing the watch, put it in a location where it is exposed to bright light.

CASIO G-Shock GW-B5600BL-1ER - Solar Charging - 1

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.

CASIO G-Shock GW-B5600BL-1ER - Solar Charging - 2

Important!

- 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

● Low Battery

A low battery will cause [LOW] to flash and will disable the functions below.

• Time signal reception
- Illumination
- Sounds (alarms, etc.)
- Connection with a phone

CASIO G-Shock GW-B5600BL-1ER - ● Low Battery - 1

If the charge level drops even further, [CHG] will flash. If this happens, all functions are disabled.

CASIO G-Shock GW-B5600BL-1ER - ● Low Battery - 2

- Dead Battery

The digital display will go blank if the battery goes dead. Memory data is lost, and watch settings are returned to their initial factory defaults.

Important!

  • Should the battery go low or go dead, expose the face (solar panel) to light as soon as possible.
  • Exposing the watch to light while its battery is dead will cause [CHG] to start flashing. Keep the watch exposed to light until the current time appears on the display.

Note

- If [R] is flashing, it means that all functions, except for timekeeping, are disabled due to high momentary battery power consumption.

Time Adjustment Using a Time Signal

Overview

The watch's time and day settings can be adjusted in accordance with a received time signal.

Important!

  • If you are in a location where a time signal can be received and you want to receive the signal, select a city in your time zone that supports time signal reception as your Home City. The watch will not indicate the correct time if the Home City setting is wrong.
  • The watch will normally not perform auto signal receive while it is paired with a phone. However, auto receive will be performed if there is no connection between the watch and phone for more than one day.

Note

- Areas where time signal reception is supported are limited. When the watch in an area where time signal reception is not possible, connect with a phone to adjust time and day settings.

Time Signal Reception Ranges

Appropriate Signal Reception Location

  • Position the watch so its 12 o'clock side is facing the window.
  • Keep metal objects away from the watch.
  • Do not move the watch.
  • Do not perform any operation on the watch.

Signal Reception Precautions

  • When the watch is unable to adjust its time in accordance with a calibration signal for some reason, average timekeeping accuracy is within ± 15 seconds per month.
  • Note that an internal decoding process the watch performs after it receives a signal may cause the time setting to be slightly off (by less than one second).
  • Time signal reception is not possible when any one of the conditions below exists.
  • While battery power is low

  • While the watch is in the Stopwatch Mode, Timer Mode, or Alarm Mode
    -In Power Saving Level 2
    – Timer countdown operation in progress

  • While auto time adjustment is disabled
  • While the Home City setting is one where time signal reception is not possible
  • While the watch is outside the time signal reception range

  • If the receive operation is successful, the time and day settings will be adjusted automatically in accordance with the Home City and summer time settings. Summer time will not be applied correctly in the cases described below.

  • When the summer time start date and time, end date and time, or other rules are changed by authorities
  • If your watch is connected with a phone, settings must be configured so G-SHOCK Connected can acquire location information. Even if you are in an area that is within the reception range of a time signal, reception will not be performed if settings are configured in a way that makes signal reception impossible.
  • As of July 2018, China does not observe summer time. If China starts to observe summer time in the future, the time displayed by the watch for China may not be correct.
