have properly positioned the clasp.
SECTION 14 – BATTERY REPLACEMENT
One battery provides the power to operate your Tim ex watch. TIM EX
STRONGLY RECOMM ENDS TAKING YOUR W ATCH TO A LOCAL RETAILER
OR JEWELER TO HAVE THE BATTERY REPLACED. The battery type
requir ed for your watch is indicated on the caseback.
IM PORTANT NOTE: After replacing the battery and before you close the
caseback, be sure to quickly press the reset button twice if indicated on the
battery clamp. If after you close the caseback and replace the battery, the
display does not go on, press all buttons sim ultaneously.
CAUTION: DO NOT DISPOSE OF OLD BATTERY IN FIRE OR ATTEMPT TO
RECHARGE. KEEP LOOSE BATTERIES AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
When installed at the factory, the battery life in this Timex w atch is
estimated to last approxim ately 3.5 years. This est im ate is based on the
alarm being used one tim e per day for ten seconds and the light being used
once per day for one second. Battery life may vary depending on your
®
actual usage experience. The use of NIGHT-M ODE
, which causes the
INDIGLO®night-light to activate for three seconds with any button press,
may reduce battery life.
