Timex Helix - Manual (Page 13)

Setting the Format
(ABT, DM, WRKS)
The heaps of data your watch records can be viewed in either
English or metric format.
A. To toggle between formats, pull the crown all the way out to Position 4 in
any mode. SET UNITS appears.
B. Press either the start/split or stop/reset buttons to toggle between formats.
PLEASE NOTE: When you toggle between English and metric formats in any mode, it
will affect the display in every other applicable mode.
Automatic Return-To-Time
(ABT, DM, WRKS)
If the watch is in any mode other than TIME/DATE for two consecutive passings of midnight
with no user input, the watch will automatically revert to TIME/DATE mode to conserve energy.
Save the planet.
Using the Locking Mechanism
(ABT, DM, WRKS)
There is a sliding locking mechanism located at the bottom of the face (see Figure 1.A). When
you get to the mode you want, nudge the locking mechanism to the right until a little
flashing lock icon appears (see Figure 2).
STICKY NOTE: When the crown is in Position 3 or 4, it won't lock and rotating it will
affect changes in all other modes.
Range of Readings
WARNING: This is some heady information. Thinking cap recommended.
A. Your watch has a huge range of readable temperatures:
-5 to122° F or -20 to 50° C, with 1° resolution. Temperatures
below zero will be indicated by a (-), while
temperatures at or above zero will have
no notation.
