Care and Maintenance
Water Resistance:
Your Timex Ironman watch is water resistant to 100 meters (330 feet). This makes it suitable for swimming, showering, and snorkeling. It is not recommended for scuba diving or high-impact water sports where water pressure may exceed the rating.

Do not press any buttons while the watch is submerged in water, as this can compromise the water resistance seal.
Battery Replacement:
The watch uses one CR2025 Lithium Metal battery. When the display dims or functions become erratic, it may be time to replace the battery. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
Cleaning:
Clean your watch regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with clean water and thorough drying. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the watch case or strap.
