Your Timex watch featuring the INDIGLO night-light contains a patented

readability in all low light and nighttime conditions. Simply press the INDIGLO nightlight button to activate.

Your Timex watch is equipped with the NIGHT-MODE option. This Timex patented
feature (U.S. Patent Number 4,912,688) enhances the benefits of the INDIGLO
light. Once activated, any button pushed will cause the INDIGLO night-light to stay on
for 3 seconds. The NIGHT-MODE option is activated by pressing and holding the
INDIGLO night-light button for 3 seconds. NIGHT-MODE will stay activated for 3 hours
or until you deactivate it by pressing and holding the INDIGLO night-light button again
for 3 seconds.
NOTE: The NIGHT-MODE option can be activated in all modes at any time.
EXAMPLE: With the NIGHT-MODE option activated and the chronograph running in low
light conditions, press the LAP/RESET button. At this time the INDIGLO night-light will
automatically stay on for 3 seconds, allowing you to read the lap/split times...all with
one simple push of a button.
Your watch is water-resistant, and it will be indicated
the caseback.
• 100 Meter Water-Resistant watch withstands water pressure to 160 p.s.i.a. (equals

WARNING: TO MAINTAIN WATER-RESISTANCE, DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS UNDER
WATER UNLESS YOUR WATCH IS INDICATED AS 200 METER WATER-RESISTANT.
NOTES:
1. The watch is water-resistant only as long as lens, push buttons, and case remain intact.
2. Even though the watch may be water-resistant to a significant depth (100 or 200
meters), it is not a diver watch and should not be used for diving.

2. 2.70.30 4. 2.90.30 6. 2.30.30 8. 2.40.30 10. 3.00.30

example).
• The third lap recalled will be the second to last (Lap 8 in example).
• Each press of RECALL/SET will recall laps in descending lap order (Lap 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2,

last lap, will not appear as "best" lap during recall before resetting. However, after
resetting the chronograph, the best lap time appears correctly.
3. The “last lap” is not recalled in sequence before resetting due to the pause feature
(stopping the chronograph and then restarting to continue to take more lap
readings). The reason is that the "last" lap may not actually be complete, it may be a
paused partial lap.

THE BATTERY REPLACED. The battery type required for your watch is indicated on the
caseback.
IMPORTANT NOTE: After replacing the battery, be sure to press the reset switch if

ten seconds and the light once per day for one second. Battery life may vary depending
on your actual usage experience. The use of NIGHT-MODE
INDIGLO®night-light to activate for three seconds with any button press, may reduce
battery life.
