1. Setup
Upon receiving your Timex Ironman Triathlon Adrenaline watch, follow these steps for initial setup.
1.1 Setting Time and Date
Your watch features both analog hands and a digital display. Both need to be set for accurate timekeeping.
- Digital Time/Date: Press the MODE button repeatedly until the desired setting mode (e.g., Time Set, Date Set) is displayed. Use the SET/RECALL or STOP/RESET buttons to adjust values. Confirm settings by pressing MODE again or waiting for the watch to exit the setting mode automatically.
- Analog Hands: Pull the crown (the small knob on the side of the watch) out to the first or second position (refer to the diagram below for specific crown positions). Rotate the crown to move the analog hands to the correct time. Push the crown back in to resume timekeeping.

1.2 Battery Information
The watch comes with a Lithium Metal battery pre-installed. If the digital display is dim or unresponsive, the battery may need replacement. Refer to the Maintenance section for more details.
2. Operating Instructions
Understand the various functions and how to use the buttons on your Timex Ironman watch.
2.1 Button Functions
- MODE Button (Left Side): Cycles through different display modes such as Time, Date, Chronograph, Timer, and Alarm. Also used to confirm settings.
- SET/RECALL Button (Top Right): Used to adjust values during setting modes and to recall stored data (e.g., lap times).
- INDIGLO Button (Top Left): Activates the INDIGLO night-light for illumination of the digital display.
- STOP/RESET Button (Bottom Right): Used to stop and reset functions like the chronograph or timer.
- START/LAP Button (Bottom Left): Used to start functions like the chronograph or timer, and to record lap times.

2.2 Digital Display Modes
Press the MODE button to cycle through the following modes:
- Time Mode: Displays current time (hour, minute, second), day of the week, and date.
- Chronograph Mode: A stopwatch function for measuring elapsed time, lap times, and split times. Use START/LAP to begin/record laps and STOP/RESET to stop/reset.
- Timer Mode: A countdown timer. Set the desired countdown duration using the SET/RECALL and STOP/RESET buttons in setting mode.
- Alarm Mode: Set up to two daily alarms. The alarm will sound at the set time.
2.3 INDIGLO Night-Light
Press the INDIGLO button (top left) to illuminate the digital display for easy viewing in low-light conditions. The light will remain on for a few seconds.
3. Maintenance
Proper care ensures the longevity and performance of your watch.
3.1 Cleaning
Wipe the watch case and strap with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with clean water and drying thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
3.2 Water Resistance
Your watch is water resistant up to 100 meters (330 feet). This makes it suitable for showering, swimming, and snorkeling. However, it is not recommended for scuba diving or high-impact water sports. Do not operate buttons underwater.
3.3 Battery Replacement
The watch uses one Lithium Metal battery (CR2016). When the display becomes dim or functions are erratic, the battery may need replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and water resistance.

3.4 Safety Information
- Avoid high-impact water activities.
- Keep away from young children.
- Dispose of batteries safely according to local regulations.
4. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your watch, refer to the following common problems and solutions.
- Digital Display is Blank or Dim: This usually indicates a low battery. Replace the battery as described in the Maintenance section.
- Analog Hands Do Not Match Digital Time: The analog hands and digital display are set independently. Follow the instructions in Section 1.1 to synchronize both.
- Buttons Are Unresponsive: Ensure the watch is not in a locked mode (if applicable, consult full manual for specific model lock features). A low battery can also cause unresponsive buttons. Try replacing the battery.
- Chronograph Resets Unexpectedly: This may indicate a software glitch or low power. Try replacing the battery. If the issue persists, a factory reset (if available for your model, consult full manual) or professional service may be required.
- Time is Inaccurate (Losing/Gaining Time): This could be due to a low battery or a need for recalibration. Replace the battery first. If the problem continues, professional service is recommended.
- INDIGLO Night-Light Not Working: Check the battery. If the battery is low, the night-light may be the first function to fail.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, please contact Timex customer support.
