FLEXTIME EXPLANATION
WATCH SETTINGS
WHAT IS FLEXTIME?
FLEXtime is a feature that enables your watch to receive the time and date through
the pager to automatically:

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.“

What to do if ”Lo Battery“ appears:
Install a new battery as soon as possible following the instructions illustrated on page 2.
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.
Important: Remove expired cells promptly to avoid leakage.

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.
RECOMMENDED USAGE
Yes
No
Splash resistant
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.
