Timex Ironman Transit Watch User Manual fig 1

There are 4 side buttons A (Set/Indiglo), B (Start/Stop/+), C (Mode), and D (Reset/Lap/-). There is a metal button E (Heart Rate) at the 6H position solely for Heart Rate measurement. Press button C (Mode) to change modes. The sequence of modes is > Time, Workout, Chrono, Data, Timer, Alarm. Button E (Heart Rate) is solely for heart rate measurement.

EASY TOUCH HEART RATE:

Heart rate can be measured using electrodes on the watch that are located on the metal case back and button E. In order to check your heart rate you must be wearing the watch on your wrist with the case back in good contact with your skin. In any mode, except setting mode, press and hold button E (Heart Rate) with your finger for approximately 8-10 seconds to measure your heart rate. The heart rate icon will flash on the display to indicate that the heart rate is being measured.

GUIDELINES FOR MEASURING HEART RATE:

  • Do not measure heart rate underwater.
  • Always press the sensor, button E (Heart Rate), directly with the finger. The finger should press button E (Heart Rate) with the watch worn tightly around the wrist.
  • If your fingers are very cold this might affect the time it takes to take your heart rate measurement.
  • If you have very dry skin, moisten the fingertip and the skin on the wrist with some water.
  • The use of hand creams and lotions can affect the heart rate measurement.
  • Clean the back of the watch from time to time with a few drops of water and wipe it dry with a cloth to remove any grease or oils.
  • If the message “do not move” is displayed, try to slow down your body movement in order to take a more accurate heart rate measurement.
  • The heart rate measurement may not work correctly if you have an irregular heartbeat.

Heart rate will be displayed with unit BPM (Beats Per Minute) and at the same time % of Max. Heart rate is displayed at the bottom right corner.

  • The maximum pulse is calculated below:
  • Example: Age = 50 (Refer to Time Mode section for “Age” setting)
  • Maximum pulse = 220 – age
  • Maximum pulse = 220 – 50 = 170
  • The % of the maximum pulse is calculated as below:
  • Example: Pulse = 102
  • % of the maximum pulse = pulse x 100 / maximum pulse
  • % of the maximum pulse = 102 x 100 / 170 = 60 %

 ALARM HEART RATE:

There are three levels for selection. You also can manually adjust the lower and upper limits for the heart rate in setting mode. Refer to the “Workout Mode” section for Heart Rate Training settings.
