Setup
1. Initial Time and Date Setting
Upon first use or after a battery replacement, you may need to set the current time and date. Refer to the watch's side buttons for navigation and setting modes. Typically, a 'MODE' or 'SET' button allows entry into the setting menu, and 'START/STOP' or 'LAP/RESET' buttons are used to adjust values.
2. Strap Adjustment
The adjustable black 20mm silicone strap is designed to fit wrist circumferences up to 8 inches. To adjust the strap, locate the buckle and slide the pin through the desired hole for a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the watch is snug but not too tight to allow for proper circulation.

Operating Instructions
1. Basic Navigation and Indiglo
The watch features several buttons for navigation. The 'MODE' button typically cycles through different functions (Time, Chronograph, Timer, Alarm). The 'INDIGLO' button (often located on the top left) activates the backlight for visibility in low-light conditions. Press and hold the 'INDIGLO' button for a few seconds to activate Night-Mode, which keeps the backlight on for a set duration.
2. Performance Pacer
The performance pacer feature helps you maintain a target pace during your workouts. Consult the watch's specific menu for setting your desired pace and receiving alerts if you deviate from it.

Set customizable alerts to remind you to hydrate or consume nutrition during extended activities. These alerts can be programmed through the watch's settings menu to ensure you maintain optimal performance and health.

Access the chronograph mode to time your activities. The watch can record up to 500 laps, allowing for detailed analysis of your performance. Use the 'START/STOP' button to begin and end timing, and the 'LAP/RESET' button to record lap times.
5. Interval Tracker with 6 Customizable Segments
The interval tracker is ideal for structured workouts. You can program up to 6 customizable segments, defining work and rest periods. The watch will guide you through each interval with audible alerts.

6. Alarms, Countdown Timer, and Time Modes
The T300 supports 3 daily, weekday, or weekend alarms. A 24-hour countdown timer is available for specific duration tracking. The watch also features a 24-hour military time mode and the ability to set 2 time zones, along with a day, date, month, and year calendar display.
Maintenance
1. Water Resistance
Your Timex Ironman T300 is water resistant to 50 meters (165 feet). This rating generally means it is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming, but it is not recommended for diving or snorkeling. To maintain water resistance, avoid pressing any buttons while the watch is submerged.

2. Cleaning
Clean your watch regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For the silicone strap, mild soap and water can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the watch's finish or display.
3. Battery Replacement
The watch operates on a standard watch battery. 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 proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
