THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING YOUR TIMEX® WATCH.
Please read the instructions carefully to understand how to operate your
Timex® watch. Your model may not have all of the features described in this
booklet.
GENERAL OPERATION-FEATURES
In general, the buttons do just what you’d expect:
- INDIGLO® button (top right of watch case) turns on the INDIGLO® nightlight, which illuminates the watch face while you hold the button and for three seconds after it is released (six seconds while setting)
- MODE/PULSE button cycles through modes of operation: Time of Day
- Timer
- Stopwatch
- Alarm
- Pulse
- The START/STOP button starts and stops the Timer, Stopwatch, and Pulse Calculator while in their respective modes, and turns the Alarm on and off in Alarm mode.
- SET/CLEAR button is used to start (and finish) setting Time of Day, and Alarm and to select a pre-set Timer (that’s the SET part). When the Timer or Stopwatch is stopped, this button clears them (the CLEAR part).
Additional features
- AUTOMATIC SET RETURN — While in SET function within any mode or while in Alarm or Pulse, if no button is pressed for 2-3 minutes, the watch will automatically return to Time of Day.
SETTING TIME OF DAY, DATE AND ALARM
We’ve built setting reminders into the watch to simplify setting the Time of Day and Alarm, and made them consistent – once you know how to set Time, you can set the Alarm. Press and hold SET/CLEAR to begin; a message will appear reminding you to hold the button. After 2 seconds, you’ll see a series of reminders, showing you the functions of the MODE/PULSE and START/STOP buttons and a reminder to press the SET/CLEAR button when done.
- Press START/STOP to change the value of the flashing number.
- Press MODE to move to the next digit (or digits) to continue setting the time and date.
- When done, press SET/CLEAR to save changes and exit. Notes on Setting Time of Day, Date, and Alarm
- Pressing any button during reminder messages will cancel them and let you start setting the watch.
- During setting, the reminder arrows will pop up to help you remember which buttons to press.
- You can set the watch to display time in 24-hour format, sometimes called “military” or “international” time. Press START/STOP to change between 12 HR and 24 HR.
- On some models, you can set the date to display Month/Date or Day/Date. In regular Time mode (not Set mode), press and hold START/STOP for 3 seconds to change between Month/Date and Day/Date format.
- Whenever you set the Alarm, it will automatically arm itself. Refer to the Alarm section for more details.
USING THE PULSE MODE
There are 2 ways to use Pulse Calculator; Go to Pulse Mode or use Pulse Shortcut when Timer or Stopwatch is running and displayed. Using your watch to help determine your pulse is easy – just follow these steps:
- Press MODE/PULSE until you get to Pulse mode.
- To take your pulse, press START/STOP to begin.
- The display will tell you to FIND PULSE and then allow you seconds to do so. After 3 seconds a beep will sound. Count 10 pulse beats from that beep. On the tenth pulse beat, press START/STOP to show your heart rate in beats per minute.
Notes on Using the Pulse Calculator
- The easiest way to take your pulse while using this feature is to use the hand on the arm that you put the watch on to find a pulse in your neck, just below your chin. With your hand in this position, you can easily press the START/STOP button with your free hand to start and finish Pulse Calculation.
- After you enter Pulse mode a sequence of reminders will appear describing how to use Pulse Calculator. Pressing START/STOP, MODE/PULSE, or waiting a few seconds will return you to PULSE START (unless you have entered Pulse using “Pulse Shortcut”, in which case you will return to either the Timer or Stopwatch).
USING THE STOPWATCH AND TIMER
The main difference between the Timer and Stopwatch is that the Stopwatch counts up from zero until you stop it, and the Timer counts down from a preset value and alerts you when it has reached zero.
- Press START/STOP to start or stop the Timer or Stopwatch.
- While the Timer or Stopwatch is stopped, press SET/CLEAR to set it back to zero (“clear”).
- Timer Only: If the Timer is cleared (at 0), press SET/CLEAR to choose one of the pre-set times to count down from (continue pressing SET/CLEAR until you reach the time you want). The choices for countdown times are 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 45 minutes and 1 hour. Some models also have 15-second and 30-second pre-set times.
Notes on Using Stopwatch and Timer
- While in Stopwatch or Timer mode and the Stopwatch or Timer is running, you can:
- Press and hold SET/CLEAR to “peek” at time of day.
- Press MODE/PULSE for a “shortcut” to Pulse mode to take a single pulse reading, after a few seconds, the watch will return to Timer or Stopwatch (whichever function you were using).
- When the Timer count reaches zero, a melody will alert you. Melody will sound for 10 seconds; press any button to stop it. If counting down from 30 minutes or more, the watch will beep and show HALFWAY when half the time has elapsed (alerting you that you’ve reached “turnaround” time).
- Timer Only: While the Timer is running, a bar graph across the bottom of the display will show an estimate of what percentage of othe original settings is still to be counted.
- The Stopwatch and Timer can run simultaneously.
- You may switch to another mode and the Stopwatch or Timer will continue running. (In Time of Day mode, a bar graph will appear the the bottom of the display while the Timer is running.) Even in another mode, the Timer will alert you when it reaches zero.
USING THE ALARM
- Press SET/CLEAR to begin setting. Instructions for setting the Alarm can be found above in “Setting the Time of Day, Date, and Alarm”.
- In regular Alarm mode (not Set mode), press START/STOP to turn the Alarm feature on and off. The display will show “ON” or “OFF” to the right of Alarm minutes. If the Alarm is “ON”, it will generate a melody when the Time of Day is the same as the Alarm time. As a reminder, when the Alarm is ON, an Alarm clock symbol will appear to the right of the date while in Time of Day.
- The alarm melody will sound for 20 seconds but can be stopped by pressing any button. If it is allowed to sound for the full 20 seconds, a backup alarm will automatically sound after 5 more minutes, much like a snooze feature. The watch button cell or coin battery is not intended to be replaced by a consumer. Only a jeweler or other professional is to replace the battery.
