The alarm goes off at midnight regardless of what I try

Set the alarm for a morning wake up instead of midnight!

Scroll through the screens until you get to the alarm screen and select the barometer button to turn alarm on and off.do not go into edit mode.

I had this problem with the Casio 2926 at midnight for many weeks and no matter which buttons I pressed, it carried on.
I solved it on my model, by going into alarm set mode (AL) by toggling button on lower left of watch face. Then using button on lower right, cycle through all (5?) alarm options and also check the tiny screen new the rim at top right of watch face marked with SNZ ALM SIG. If a little black box shows up on this screen, switch off the alarm or snooze, by pressing the button on top right.
Otherwise go to Casio and go through their instructions. The watch is not designed for easy use.

mcdevito75 here, Best Bet, look for a small watch repair shop in your area, mechaism could be stuck.

If the date changes at noon then you just need to cycle through another 12 hours to be sure that it changes at midnight. It sounds like your clock is off by 12 hours.
If this doesnt work then have the watch AC'd or reset. This might correct a problem with the circuit board.

Hi Cheese,

Please use the link below which has the information to reset the time

how do I turn off the hourly setting

Light button is A
Mode button is B
Start button is C
Reset button is D

Standard Time Adjustment:
1) To set time, date, etc. press button B three times (assuming you start in standard time display mode)
2) Press button D until the area you'd like to change is flashing. (i.e.: minutes, date, day, etc.)
3) Press button C to change. Press once for one unit increment of change. Hold for 3 seconds for speedy advance.
4) Press D again until the next area you'd like to change is flashing.
5) At completion of changes press Button B to resume standard time display mode.

what you have to do is
1. press the mode button until you get to the setting that has "AL" at the bottom right.
2. then you press the "receive" button to switch between the four alarms.
3. as you are going through each alarm time, you need to look in the circle at the top right. When you are going through the alarm times, if there is a mark next to "ALM", you need to press the "time memo" button so that the mark next to "ALM" is no longer there.
4. repeat step fout for all of the alarms, and the problem should be fixed.
