5. Maintenance and Care

Water Resistance (50m / 5BAR)

Figure 7: Water Resistance Test

Your watch is water-resistant up to 50 meters (5 BAR). This means it is suitable for daily use, such as splashes, rain, and showering. However, it is NOT recommended for swimming, diving, or any prolonged submersion in water, especially hot water, as this can damage the seals. Do not operate buttons while the watch is wet or submerged.

Cleaning

• Wipe the watch case and band regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
• For stubborn dirt on the silicone band, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly with clean water, then dry completely.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, which can damage the watch's finish.

Battery Replacement

The watch uses a CR2016 battery. When the display becomes dim or functions become erratic, it may be time to replace the battery. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure the water resistance seal is properly maintained.

Storage

When not in use for extended periods, store your watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

6. Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your watch, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Display is blank or dim: The battery may be low. Replace the battery (CR2016).
• Buttons are unresponsive: Ensure the watch is not in a locked mode (if applicable) or that it is not wet. If the issue persists, a soft reset (removing and reinserting the battery) might be necessary, but this should be done by a professional.
• Time is incorrect: Re-set the time and date as described in the 'Setting the Time and Date' section. Check if Daylight Saving Time (DST) is correctly set for your region.
• Water inside the watch: Immediately stop using the watch and take it to a professional for inspection. Water damage is typically not covered under warranty.

If the problem persists after trying these steps, please contact customer support.

7. User Tips

• Regular Cleaning: Keep your watch clean, especially the band, to prevent skin irritation and maintain its appearance.
• Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Exposure to very high or very low temperatures can affect the watch's accuracy and battery life.
• Check Water Resistance: While rated for 50m, always ensure the watch is dry before pressing any buttons to prevent water ingress.
• Button Feel: Some users note the buttons can be stiff initially; they tend to loosen up with use.
