    What to do if the hands on my Casio 5174 Watch suddenly stop moving?
    • R
      Ricardo FranklinAug 16, 2025
      If the hands of your Casio Watch suddenly stop moving and button operation is disabled, the watch may be in power recovery mode. Do not perform any operation until the hands return to their normal positions (in about 15 minutes). The hands should return to their correct positions when normal operation returns. To help power recover, leave the watch in a location where it is exposed to light.

      Amanda LawsonAug 21, 2025
      If your Casio Watch does not resume operation after you expose it to light, this can happen after the power level drops to Level 3. Continue exposing the watch to light until the x Second Hand starts moving normally (at one-second intervals).

      hendersonvickiAug 28, 2025
      If the World Time indicated by the n Right Dial Hands in the World Time Mode of your Casio Watch is one hour off from the actual time in the selected time zone, the STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving time) setting of the selected World Time City may be wrong.

    Why does the second hand on my Casio 5174 move erratically?
    • W
      westkimberlySep 6, 2025
      If the x Second Hand on your Casio Watch starts to move at one-second intervals, but then suddenly returns to moving at two-second intervals, the watch probably is not sufficiently charged yet. Continue keeping it exposed to light.

    Why are all the hands on my Casio 5174 stuck at 12?
    • Y
      Yvonne JohnsonSep 9, 2025
      If all the watch’s hands are stopped at 12 o’clock and none of the buttons work on your Casio Watch, power may be low. Expose the watch to light until the x Second Hand starts moving normally, at one-second intervals.

    Why is my Casio 5174 one hour off?
    • D
      David AllenSep 12, 2025
      If the current time setting of your Casio Watch is off by one hour, signal reception on a day for switching between STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving time) may have failed for some reason. Perform the operation under “To get ready for a receive operation”. The time setting will be adjusted automatically as soon as signal reception is successful. If you are unable to receive the time calibration signal, change the STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving time) setting manually.
