Casio Pathfinder 2805 Instructions

The Casio Pathfinder 2805 series is a line of outdoor watches that offer several different features, including atomic time, solar power, compass, altimeter and barometer, thermometer and an auto light to view the watch face in dark conditions. The Pathfinder can be set relatively easily and is designed for use by both men and women.

• 1

  Keep the watch exposed to bright light, especially at first, to allow the solar cell to receive sunlight and generate the solar power into energy for the watch. Wear the watch outside of the sleeve as much as possible and place it near an open window near bright light when you are not wearing it.

  Specify the home city for the watch by pressing the left button on the bottom of the watch until the city code flashes. Press the lower button on the right-hand side of the watch to view cities east of the flashing city code and the top button on the right-hand side of the watch to view cities west of that city. If your specific city is not listed, choose the nearest large city that is listed, such as Chicago, Denver or Los Angeles. Press the left button on the bottom of the watch to exit the screen.

  Perform a manual time signal reception by placing the watch in the windowsill with 12:00 facing the window. Hold down the bottom button on the right-hand side of the watch for two seconds until "AC" flashes on the watch display. Allow up to 15 minutes for the watch to manually receive a time signal from one of the worldwide atomic clocks. Once set, the watch will automatically receive a time signal at least once a day.
