Maintenance
Water Resistance
The Timex Ironman watch is water-resistant to 100 meters (330 feet). This means it is suitable for recreational swimming and snorkeling. However, it is not designed for scuba diving or high-impact water sports. Avoid pressing buttons underwater to prevent water ingress.
Cleaning and Care
To maintain the appearance and functionality of your watch, regularly clean the resin strap and case with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish. Rinse with fresh water after exposure to chlorinated or salt water.
Battery Replacement
The watch uses 1 Lithium Metal battery (included). When the display dims or functions become erratic, it may be time for a battery replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure the water resistance seal is properly maintained.
