Setup and Initial Use
Battery Activation
Your watch comes with a pre-installed battery. If the display is not active, check for a small plastic tab near the crown or buttons. Remove this tab to activate the battery. The watch requires 1 product-specific battery (included).
Setting the Time and Date
Digital watches typically have one or two buttons for setting. Refer to the following general steps:
- Mode Button: Press the 'Mode' button (often on the left side) repeatedly until the time display starts flashing or you enter the setting mode.
- Adjust Button: Use the 'Adjust' button (often on the right side) to change the flashing digits (hours, minutes, date).
- Cycle Through Settings: Continue pressing the 'Mode' button to cycle through hours, minutes, month, day, and year settings.
- Confirm: Once all settings are correct, press the 'Mode' button one last time or wait for the display to stop flashing to exit setting mode.
Note: Button functions may vary slightly. Experiment gently or consult the watch's specific button layout.
Operating the Watch
Reading the Time
The watch features an LCD digital display. The time will be shown in a clear numerical format. Some models may cycle through time, date, and seconds with a press of the 'Mode' button.
Using Additional Functions (If Available)
Depending on the specific model, your watch may include functions such as a stopwatch or alarm. These are typically accessed by pressing the 'Mode' button to cycle through different display modes. Use the 'Adjust' button to start/stop or set these functions.
Maintenance and Care
Cleaning
