3. Panduan Pemasangan

Replacing the CTL1616F battery in a Casio solar watch requires careful handling and appropriate tools. If you are not comfortable performing this procedure, it is recommended to seek assistance from a qualified watch technician.

Alat yang Diperlukan:

• Small precision screwdrivers (for case back screws)
• Fine-pointed tweezers (for battery clip)
• Case back opener tool (if applicable)
• Non-metallic pry tool (optional, for delicate components)
• Kain bersih dan tidak berbulu

Prosedur Langkah demi Langkah:

1. Sediakan Ruang Kerja: Work on a clean, well-lit surface to prevent loss of small parts and to ensure clear visibility.
2. Remove Watch Band (Optional but Recommended): For some models, removing the watch band can provide better access to the case back screws.
3. Open Case Back: Carefully unscrew the four screws on the watch's case back using a precision screwdriver. For some models, a case back opener tool may be required. Set screws aside in a safe place.
4. Locate Battery: Once the case back is removed, identify the battery. It is typically held in place by a small metal clip or cover.
5. Keluarkan Bateri Lama: Using fine-pointed tweezers, carefully unclip or lift the battery retaining mechanism. Gently remove the old CTL1616F battery. Avoid touching other internal components.
6. Masukkan Bateri Baharu: Place the new CTL1616F battery into the battery compartment, ensuring correct polarity (usually indicated by a "+" sign on the battery and compartment). Secure the battery with its retaining clip or cover.
7. Perform AC Reset (Crucial for Solar Watches): After installing the new battery, most Casio solar watches require an "AC Reset." Locate the "AC" contact point on the watch module (often marked with "AC" or a small arrow pointing to a tiny hole). Using the tip of your tweezers, simultaneously touch the "AC" contact point and the negative terminal of the battery (the metal casing of the battery). Hold for 2-3 seconds. This step clears the watch's memory and initiates proper function.
8. Kefungsian Ujian: Before reassembling, check if the watch display is active and functioning correctly.
9. Reassemble Case Back: Carefully align the case back and screw it back into place. Ensure the gasket (if present) is properly seated to maintain water resistance. Do not overtighten the screws.
10. Charge Watch: Place the watch under a strong light source (natural sunlight or a bright lamp) for several hours to allow the new battery to fully charge. Initial charge levels may be low.

Note: Specific steps for opening the watch case and performing the AC reset may vary slightly by model. Refer to your specific watch model's service manual or online resources for detailed visual instructions if needed.

  • Verify that the "AC Reset" procedure was performed correctly. This is a common cause of a blank display.
  • Expose the watch to strong light for an extended period (several hours to a day) to ensure the battery has sufficient charge.
• Masa/Tarikh yang salah:
  • After an AC reset or battery replacement, the watch's time and date settings will need to be reconfigured. Refer to your watch's specific user manual for setting instructions.
  • For atomic solar watches, ensure it is placed in an area where it can receive the time calibration signal.
• Watch Stops Running in Darkness:
