3. Setup

3.1 Activating the Watch

Your watch may arrive with a small plastic spacer under the crown (the knob on the side). This spacer prevents the battery from draining during storage and shipping. To activate the watch:

1. Carefully remove the plastic spacer from under the crown.
2. Push the crown fully inward towards the watch case. The second hand should begin to move, indicating the watch is active.

3.2 Setting Time and Date

To ensure accurate timekeeping and date display, follow these steps:

1. Pull the Crown: Gently pull the crown out to the outermost position. The second hand will stop.
2. Set the Time: Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to move the hour and minute hands. Advance the hands past 12 o'clock to determine if it's AM or PM (the date will change around midnight).
3. Set the Date: Once the time is set, push the crown halfway back in (to the middle position). Rotate the crown to adjust the date in the date window. If your watch also has a day display, rotate the crown in the opposite direction to set the day.
4. Final Adjustment: Once the desired date and time are set, push the crown fully back into the watch case. The second hand will resume movement.

4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Using the Indiglo Night-Light

The Indiglo night-light illuminates the entire watch dial for easy viewing in the dark.

• To activate the Indiglo night-light, simply press and hold the crown.
• The light will remain on as long as the crown is pressed. Release the crown to turn off the light.

5. Maintenance

5.1 Water Resistance

Your Timex Easy Reader Watch is water resistant to 30 meters (100 feet). This means it is protected against splashes, rain, or brief immersion in water. It is not suitable for swimming, showering, or diving. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in to maintain water resistance.

5.2 Battery Replacement

The watch uses a CR2016 Lithium Metal 3.0V battery. Battery life can vary depending on usage, especially frequent use of the Indiglo feature. When the watch stops or the Indiglo light dims significantly, it's time to replace the battery. It is recommended to have battery replacement performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.

5.3 Cleaning

To clean your watch, wipe the case and band with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the finish.

6. Troubleshooting

• Watch Not Running: Ensure the plastic spacer has been removed from under the crown and the crown is fully pushed in. If the watch still does not run, the battery may need replacement.
• Indiglo Not Working: If the Indiglo night-light does not illuminate when the crown is pressed, the battery may be low or depleted.
• Date Not Changing: Ensure the time is set correctly, passing midnight to advance the date. If the date is stuck, try resetting it manually as described in Section 3.2.
• Water Inside Watch: If moisture appears inside the watch, immediately take it to a qualified watch technician for inspection and repair to prevent further damage.
