Mechanics Manual
Although it isn't in the rule or casebooks....
The Official's Manual says in paragraph 212:
If the toss is poor, either official shall sound the whistle immediately, signal the clock should not start and order a rejump.
None of us are quick enough to get our whistles back into our mouths and "signal that the clock should not start" and timers are not quick enough to recognize such a situation and not start the clock. Soooo, with this guidance I would have to assume that we should put the clock back into the condition it was before it started - reset time.
