5. Maintenance

5.1 Water Resistance

The SKMEI 2166 watch is rated for 3ATM (30 meters) water resistance. This means it is suitable for daily use, such as splashes, rain, or brief immersion in water. It is NOT suitable for swimming, diving, or showering with hot water, as steam and temperature changes can compromise the seals.

Figure 5.1: Watch demonstrating water resistance.

5.2 Cleaning

To clean your watch, wipe it gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the case, strap, or display.

5.3 Battery Replacement

The watch uses a CR2430 battery. When the display becomes dim or functions stop working, 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.
