Setup

Initial Activation and Time Setting

Your Fastrack watch comes with a pre-installed lithium metal battery. Before first use, ensure any protective plastic stoppers are removed from the crown or pushers if present. The watch may require initial time and date setting.

1. Setting Analog Time:

   Locate the crown on the right side of the watch case. Pull the crown out to the first or second click position (refer to watch-specific instructions if available, as positions vary). Rotate the crown to adjust the hour and minute hands to the correct time. Once set, push the crown back in to secure the time.

2. Setting Digital Time and Date:

   The digital display is controlled by the pushers (buttons) located on the sides of the watch case. Typically, one button cycles through modes (Time, Date, Alarm, Stopwatch), and others are used for setting values. Press the mode button until the digital time or date flashes. Use the adjustment buttons to set the correct hour, minute, day, month, and year. Press the mode button again to confirm and exit setting mode.

Operating Your Watch

Understanding Watch Functions

• Analog Display: The primary display for current time, indicated by the hour, minute, and second hands.
• Digital Display Modes:
  • Time Mode: Displays digital time (12-hour or 24-hour format).
  • Date Mode: Shows the current date (day, month, year).
  • Alarm Mode: Allows setting a daily alarm. When the alarm sounds, press any button to stop it.
  • Stopwatch Mode: Used for timing events. Typically includes start, stop, and reset functions.
• Special Features:
  • Alarm: Set and activate an audible alarm for reminders.

  • Glow In The Dark: Luminous hands and/or markers provide visibility in low-light conditions after exposure to light.

Maintenance

Care and Longevity

• Cleaning:

  Wipe the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid using chemical cleaners, solvents, or abrasive materials.

• Water Resistance:

  This watch is marked with "WR50M" on the dial, indicating water resistance up to 50 meters. This means it is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming, but not for diving or snorkeling. Avoid operating buttons or the crown when the watch is wet to prevent water ingress.

• Battery Replacement:

  The watch uses a Lithium Metal battery. When the battery power is low (indicated by dimming digital display or erratic analog movement), it is recommended to have the battery replaced by an authorized Fastrack service center or a qualified watch technician. Improper battery replacement can damage the watch and compromise its water resistance.

• Storage:

  When not in use, store your watch in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields.
