Getting started

Activating timer

To activate the timer, you must pull the small, clear plastic tab out of the battery
compartment, which is situated under the belt clip on the back of the timer. The
product will not function until this tab has been removed. If you have difficulty in pulling
the tab, then you can remove the battery cover (please take care when doing this), and
then take off the plastic tab, before replacing the cover.
