4.5 Water Resistance

50M Water Resistance
The watch is rated for 50M (5 Bar) water resistance. This means it is suitable for daily use, swimming, washing hands, and exposure to rain. It is NOT suitable for hot water, warm water bathing, or showering, as water vapor can penetrate the watch and cause damage.
5. Maintenance and Care
- Cleaning: Wipe the watch regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by drying.
- Water Exposure: Avoid exposing the watch to hot water, warm water, or steam (e.g., during bathing or showering) as this can compromise the water resistance seals.
- Chemicals: Do not expose the watch to chemical substances, cosmetics, or corrosive daily necessities. These can corrode the plating and finish of the watch surface.
- Impact: While shock-resistant, avoid severe impacts or dropping the watch to prevent internal damage.
- Storage: Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.
- Battery: The watch includes a battery. When the display dims or functions become erratic, it may be time for a battery replacement. This should ideally be done by a professional to maintain water resistance.
6. Troubleshooting
- Display is blank or dim: The battery may be low or depleted. Replace the battery.
- Time is incorrect: Re-adjust the time following the 'Initial Setup' instructions. Ensure the 12/24 hour format is set correctly.
- Buttons are unresponsive: Ensure the watch is not in a locked mode (if applicable) or that no debris is obstructing the buttons. If the issue persists, contact customer service.
- Water inside the watch: If condensation or water droplets appear inside the watch, stop using it immediately and seek professional service. This indicates a breach in water resistance.
For any issues not covered here, please contact the seller's customer service for assistance.
