FLEXTIME EXPLANATION
HAT IS FLEXTIME?
W
FLEXtime is a feature that enables your watch to receive the time and date through
the pager to automatically:
① Set and maintain the correct time and date
➁ Change the time for daylight savings time
③ Change to local time as you travel to different time zones, if you desire
HOW DOES FLEXTIME WORK?
Your watch automatically begins listening for FLEXtime data as soon as you put a
battery in it. The FT icon flashes. Your watch may set itself in a matter of minutes.
If FLEXtime is not yet available in your area, you must set your watch manually.
Your watch is preset to display local time which may change as you travel to
other time zones. Both time zones will be set to the same time. You may change
these settings to a different time zone (see page 9 ”set watch time”). If you don‘t
want the time on your watch to change as you travel, or if your watch sets itself to a
time zone other than your own, you will have to select a specific time zone to display,
other than ”Local.“
Remember, FLEXtime only works when the pager is on and you are in SkyTel‘s
coverage area.
A CHANGE IN DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME (DST)
A FLEXtime DST adjustment will cause a time adjustment pop-up
message on your watch. No alert will sound. Press any button to
end the pop-up message.

BATTERY
MEMORY BACK-UP
ABOUT THE BATTERY
The battery is a size 675 common
Expected battery life will vary depending on watch and pager usage. Battery life is
approximately 2 months.
zinc-air hearing aid battery, not a watch battery
675 battery cell recommended.
BATTERY INDICATORS
”Lo Battery“:
Lo Battery will appear on the face of the watch every 2 seconds to
indicate the battery is running low. Some of the watch‘s non-pager
functions will be disabled, such as the I
shortened. You will continue to receive pages and be able to read them. The watch
will continue to operate in this condition for a limited time after the appearance of
the ”Lo Battery“ message.
What to do if ”Lo Battery“ appears:
Install a new battery as soon as possible following the instructions illustrated on page 2.
Important: Remove expired cells promptly to avoid leakage.

.
NFORMATION BACKUP WHEN CHANGING A BATTERY:
When you remove and replace the zinc-air battery in the Timex Internet
Messenger watch, your valuable settings and messages are preserved by a
special data back-up feature in the memory of the watch. So, time of day and
date and alarm settings and messages are automatically saved:
1. Once per day, or
2. When you lock/unlock a message, or
3. When you read any message or change a pager setting when
"LO BATTERY" is displayed on the watch display when in time of day
mode, or
4. When you change an alarm or time setting.
Please try to replace your battery within a minute to ensure time of day accuracy.
However, even if it takes several minutes or hours to replace the battery, the
FLEXtime feature (if available in your area), will correctly set time and date once
the battery is installed. Allow approximately 4 minutes for FLEXtime to update
your time.
35
WATER RESISTANCE
Your Timex Internet Messenger Watch is rated to be“Splash-Resistant.”Because the
battery needs air to function, there is an air hole in the battery cover that will be
compromised by submersion and water pressure. You may wear the Internet
Messenger Watch in the shower, in the rain, while washing hands… but, like most
pagers and cellphones, it is a sensitive communications device that you would not
expect to use underwater.
Timex strongly recommends that you do not submerge the Internet
Messenger Watch. If, however, the watch is accidentally submerged to a depth of
10 meters or less, please remove the battery cover and the battery, and allow the
battery compartment to dry out. Then install a new battery. Your Internet Messenger
Watch should continue to function properly.
Please refer to the chart (right) for recommended usage.
