Operating Instructions

Indiglo Night-Light

To activate the Indiglo night-light, press and hold the crown in. The entire dial will illuminate for easy reading in low-light conditions. Release the crown to turn off the light.

Water Resistance

This watch is water resistant to 50 meters (165 feet). This means it is suitable for recreational swimming in shallow water. It is not suitable for diving or snorkeling. To maintain water resistance, ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water. Do not operate the crown while the watch is wet or submerged.

Maintenance

Battery Replacement

The watch uses one Lithium Metal battery (CR2016). When the watch stops running, the battery needs replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.

Cleaning

• For the watch case, wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
• For the leather/nylon strap, clean with a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme heat.

Troubleshooting

• Watch not running: Ensure the crown is fully pushed in. If it still does not run, the battery may need replacement.
• Indiglo not working: Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If the light does not activate, the battery may be low or depleted.
• Date not changing: Ensure the time is set correctly past midnight for the date to advance. If the date is stuck, try resetting it manually.

For persistent issues, contact Timex customer support or a certified watch repair center.
