Timex W243 NA - Manual (Page 4)

STARTING THE FITNESS TRACKER SYSTEM
1. To turn on the POD, slide the switch to the ON position.
2. Clip the POD to your waistband or belt. Make sure the
POD is on the hip and parallel to the ground. For best
results, place the POD on the same side of your body as
your watch.
3. To turn the receiver on, press the ON/OFF button on the
watch. Make sure you are at least 6 feet away from
other Fitness Tracker users.
4. The wave on the ANTENNA icon v blinks while the
watch looks for the POD.
5. ANTENNA icon V is shown steady when the POD and
watch are communicating and successfully linked.
NOTE: Though the Fitness Tracker system has a working
range of about 3 feet (1 meter) from the POD to the watch,
for the most reliable operation, make sure that the watch is
as close to the POD as possible when starting the system.
TIPS:
• As a convenience, when entering any timing or activity
mode, the watch will automatically start looking for the
POD without having to press the ON/OFF button on the
watch.
• To turn off the system, press and hold ON/OFF on the
watch for 4 seconds. Slide the POD switch to OFF to turn
off the POD.
• To increase battery life, make sure you turn the POD and
watch receiver off when not in use.
