Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your Casio F-94WA is straightforward using the side-mounted buttons. To set the time, press the mode button until the seconds flash, then use the adjustment button to cycle through hours and minutes. For care, avoid subjecting the watch to extreme heat or strong magnetic fields, which can affect the quartz movement accuracy. While the watch is water-resistant, it is recommended to avoid pressing buttons while the watch is submerged to prevent moisture ingress. To clean the watch, wipe the casing and strap with a soft, slightly damp cloth and ensure it is dried thoroughly to prevent debris buildup in the button housing.
