Timex W-140-US User Manual

To start your watch, remove the plastic guard from under
the TIMEKEEPING CROWN then push the crown in as far
as it will go against the case. The second hand should
now advance at one-second intervals.

If your watch has a date, set it first before setting the time 
(see Section 6).

Timex watches either have a two-position or three-position
timekeeping crown as illustrated below.

To set the time, pull the TIMEKEEPING CROWN to the
"OUT" position. Slowly turn the crown, in either direction, to
the desired time. To restart the watch, push the crown in as
far as it will go against the case.

If your watch is water-resistant, it will be indicated (       )
on the watch face or on the caseback.

• 30 Meter Water-Resistant watch withstands water

pressure to 60 p.s.i.a. (equals immersion to 98 feet or 30
meters below sea level).

2. The light will remain off for 4 seconds giving you time to

locate the pulse. After the four second interval, the
INDIGLO night-light will blink again indicating that your
count should begin.

3. The INDIGLO night-light will blink in 15 second intervals

at 15, 30, 45 and 60 seconds after the initial count
signal light. This enables you to time a pulse for 15, 30,
45 or 60 seconds depending on your preference.
Continue counting until you reach the desired 
15-second interval.

4. Multiply your count by the appropriate factor to determine

a one minute pulse. (For example, a 15-second count
should be multiplied by 4 to determine the pulse rate for
one minute.)

5. The timing procedure can be canceled at any time

during the counting period by pressing the pulse timing
button.

6. To begin timing again, follow step 1 above.

Note: When ready to use the Pulse timing feature, there is
no need to wait until the second hand reaches any
particular minute, since the light will indicate your timing
period.

Additional Note: During pulse timing, the regular
INDIGLO night-light can be used without interrupting the
Pulse timing feature by pressing the Timekeeping Crown.
However, while viewing the lighted dial using the regular
INDIGLO night-light feature, the light will not blink at the
next 15-second interval and you may lose your count.

1. The watch is water-resistant only as long as crystal,

crown and case remain intact.

2. Timex strongly recommends rinsing your watch with fresh

water after exposure to salt water.
