How to change your Energy Cell

One Tl MEX Energy Ceil - Type H (1 SO4) - provides the power

to operate your TIMEX MARATHON. To replace the cell,

proceed as lollows:

1. lnsert athin edge into theopening underthe casebackand

carelully pry the caseback off.

2. RemOve the old Energy Cell.*

*Do not dispose of old Energy Cell in fire or attempt to

recharge.

3. lnsert a new Timex Energy Ceil - Type H (1 S04) - with the

positive side facing up (as illustrated).

4. Realign the caseback and press it firmly into ptace. Reset

the month, date, day, and ilme. (Refer to Seiting

lnstructions).

How your TIMEX MARATHON works

A schamatic drawing ot the TIMEX Oigital timekesping

system is shown on Page10. All ol the system's major

circuits are integrated into a tiny silicon chip containing

ov6r 2,000 transistors in a spaca less than 'l15 ol an inch on

a side. Th6 system is powered by one small Tl MEX Energy

Csll. Energyfrom th6call is directed through an oscillator

circuit, which causes the quartz crystal to s€nd elsctrical

pulsalions (32,768 times p€r second) to the divider ci rcuits.

The dividsr circuits thon reduce thes6 electrical pulses to

one pulse per second. These once per second pulses are

counted and, by m6ans ol th€ logic ci rcuits in th€ decoder

section, are directad to tho appropriate el€ctrod€s on lhe

liquid crystal display to show tha time or the date.

electrodes in the form

of segmented num-

bers.

The Liquid Crystal Display

(LCD) System

Your TIMEX MARATHON shows you the time, date, day, or

seconds. But how does the display work?

ln the TIMEX MARATHON a thin, transparent layer of

highly-purified liquid crystal matsrial is soal€d b€tween

glass plates. These plates carry transparent electrodes in

the shape ol ssgmontgd numorals. When an electrical field

is applied across opposite electrod6s, tha numerals turn

dark, allowing you to read the time, date, day, or seconds.

With a push ota button, a light will illuminate ths displayto

allow viewing in the dark.

The "Excitable" Ouartz Crystal

Quartz is probably as old as our planet. lt is a common

mineral with an uncommon charactsristic. lt seems inert.

But when connected to proper electronic circuits, it will

pulsate at a steady, unvarying rate

The quartz crystal in your TIMEX

MARATHON is designed to vibrate

32,768 times per second, and the

rhythm of these pulsations is

extremely stable. Thus, the quartz

crystal creates a dependable time

standard, maintaining a constant

rate with great precision.

Care and Servicing of your

TIMEX MARATHON

CARE: llthetime displaywindow becomes damaged, have

it replaced at once. When your TIMEX En€rgy Cell'.is

deplated, it should b€ replaced promptly. We recommend

that you use a gen uine TIMEX Energy Cell, Type H (1 504). lt

may be obtained from your local TIMEX Retailer or

Authorized TIMEX Warranty Service Center. i

SERVICE; lf your TIMEX MARATHON should ever need

servicing, either send it to TIMEX address€d as lollows:

PRODUCT SERVICE

P.O. BOX 2740

LITTLE ROCK, AR.72203

or take it to an Authorized TIMEx Warranty Service Centsr.
