HOW TO START YOUR WATCH

To start your watch remove the plastic guard from under the crown, set the time, and then press the crown in to the closed

position. You will need to synchronize the watch with the Smartphone application to activate the activity tracking function. Press

button A and the upper sub-dial hand will move to the Bluetooth® symbol. Perform the synchronization of the watch and

Smartphone application. Once the watch has been synchronized with the Smartphone, the activity tracking function is ready for use.

 

 

TIME SETTING

NOTE: The watch crown has four positions: one temporary push position used to activate the INDIGLO® night-light, and three indexing positions: closed, middle and outer. To familiarize yourself with the difference between the various positions extend the

crown to its outer position and then push the crown very lightly until you feel it click into the middle position. To set the time: Pull the crown to its outer position and turn it until the correct time is

 

4TH CENTER HAND ADJUSTMENT:

To readjust a misaligned 4th center hand:

1. Pull the crown out to the outer position. The upper and lower hands will move in a counter clock-wise direction and automatically calibrate. The 4th center hand will make up to one revolution and stop at 12 o’clock.

2. If the 4th center hand does not point to 12 o’clock then, press button A to move the hand in a clockwise direction until it points to 12 o’clock.  Pressing and holding button A will make the hand move at a fast rate.

3. Push crown in to the closed position when finished.

 

 

MODE SELECTION

Press button A to advance the upper hand to the desired function. NOTE:  The mode cannot be advanced unless the crown is in the closed position.

Steps / Distance: You may switch between the Steps and Distance modes by pressing button A.

If the upper sub-dial hand is on “S” the lower sub-dial hand will reflect the percentage of your daily Steps goal currently achieved and the 4th center hand will reflect the actual number of steps (in thousands) you have taken today, when compared against the scale along the outer edge of the dial.

If the upper sub-dial hand is on “D” the lower sub-dial hand will reflect the percentage of your daily Distance goal currently achieved and the 4th center hand will reflect the actual distance (in Miles or Kilometers as selected on the Smartphone application) you have achieved, based on your activity today, when compared against the scale along the outer edge of the dial.

Bluetooth® mode: No pairing is required, but you must prepare the watch for the sync process.

To enter the Bluetooth® mode push and hold button A until the upper hand points to Bluetooth® symbol on the upper dial. The watch is now ready

for Bluetooth® synchronization with the Smartphone application. During the synchronization the lower sub-dial hand and center hand will move to zero, but the activity tracking is still active (assuming it was not “off”

prior to entering the Bluetooth® mode). After completing the sync process on the Smartphone application, both of the sub-dial hands return to their positions previous to entering the Bluetooth® mode.

OFF mode: If desired you may turn off the activity tracking function. The bat- tery life is extended, due to less energy demand, when the activity tracking function is suspended. Please note: the memory holds the activity tracking data for the last 7 calendar days. When you turn off the activity tracking mode it is advised that you synchronize the watch and the Smartphone application to prevent any loss of activity tracking data.

To enter the OFF mode push and hold button A until the upper hand points to OFF on the upper dial. This mode will suspend the activity tracking feature until you wish to re-activate this feature. To re-activate the activity tracking feature, push and hold button A until the upper hand points to “S” on the upper dial. You are now in the Steps mode with the activity tracking function active again.

 

SYNCHRONIZATION OF THE WATCH AND THE SMARTPHONE APPLICATION

Your watch memory holds the activity tracking data for the last 7 calendar days. You should plan to synchronize the watch to the

Smartphone applica tion at a minimum  every 7th day to prevent the loss of any data. No tracking data will be deleted during, or

after synchronization with the Smartphone application.

NOTE: The watch must be within 2 meters distance of your Smartphone for optimum communication

To start the synchronization, prepare the watch by placing it in Bluetooth® mode. The lower sub-dial hand and center hand will move to zero.

Start the application on your Smartphone and follow the instructions for synchronization with the mobile phone. You must start

the synchronization process from the Smartphone within 10 seconds, or the Bluetooth® on

the watch is switched off and you will need to place the watch back into Bluetooth® mode.

After the synchronization process has completed, the Bluetooth® on the watch is switched off. Both of the sub-dial hands will

return to their shown. Once the dial reflects the correct time, return the crown to the closed positions previous to entering the

Bluetooth®  mode. The Smartphone position.

 

LOW BATTERY INDICATOR

The watch is equipped with a low voltage detection to indicate when it is time to replace the battery. During the synchronization of the watch with the Smartphone, the application will alert the user the battery needs to be replaced soon. The watch will also indicate the low battery by the movement of the second hand. The second hand will move once every 2 seconds in 2 second increments until the battery is replaced. To further save the battery power until it is replaced the INDIGLO® night-light will not function until the battery has been replaced. The activity tracking function will remain active until the battery has been completely depleted, but new data will not be2 stored.

 

 

 

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

Before replacing the battery, it is recommended that you synchronize to the phone to make sure you have retrieved all of the latest activity data from the watch. After the battery has been replaced, the watch will automatically calibrate the sub-dial hands. Upon completion of the auto-calibration process, the upper sub-dial hand will point to “OFF” and the lower sub-dial hand will be positioned at ZERO. The activity tracking function will be off.

You will need to adjust the center hand and synchronize the watch with the Smartphone application. Press button A and the upper sub-dial hand will move to the Bluetooth® symbol. Perform the synchronization of the watch and Smartphone application. Once the watch has been synchronized with the Smartphone, the activity tracking function can be activated

STORING THE WATCH

The power may be removed from the watch for storage. Pull the crown out to the outer position. The hour, minute and second hands will immediately

cease to operate and the activity tracking function will be completely inactive after 30 minutes with the crown in this position.

 

FIRMWARE UPDATE

As updates for the Smartphone application are published you will receive notification through your Smartphone application. While the synchronization is occurring with the update the lower sub-dial hand will indicate the progress of the download, moving from 0 to 100%.

 

STRIDE LENGTH ADJUSTMENT

The Timex Metropolitan+ uses an algorithm for distance measurement which automatically determines your stride, based on your height and speed. If you find that the distance reported does not match your actual walking or running distance you can calibrate the distance by up to +/- 25% via the Smartphone application. This is done by the distance adjustment option on the watch section of the application.
