Timex W273 EU1 355-095009-02 manual Tachymeter Function, Battery Level Detection, Not all models

Battery Level Detection

The watch determines the battery level status and provides the user with a visual indication corresponding to the current battery level. The battery level status is classified as Normal Level, Battery Low Level, and Replace Battery Level, with each level indicated by the movement of the second hand.

For the Normal Level status, the second hand shall move one hand position every one second, which is its normal operation.

When the watch is in Battery Low Level status, the second hand shall only move at 2-second intervals and shall move by two hand positions. It is recommended that the user replace the battery when the watch is at Battery Low Level status.

When the watch is in Replace Battery Level status, the second hand shall only move at 5-second intervals and

72

shall move by five hand positions. At this point, depth sensor can not be activated, and the user must replace the ­battery immediately.

Tachymeter Function

(not all models)

The tachymeter will only determine speeds greater than 60 units per hour using this method; slower speeds can be measured by decreasing the unit of measurement.

The function performed by a tachymeter is independent of the unit of distance (e.g. statute miles, nautical miles, kilometers, meters etc.) as long as the same unit of length is used for all calculations.

1.Determine the start and finish markers for your ­ pre-determined distance.

2.Start the chronograph once the target for speed

measurement passes the start marker. 73
