Water Resistance (100 Meters)

Your HEAD HE-100-01 watch is water-resistant up to 100 meters (10 ATM). This means it is suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and showering. It is not suitable for scuba diving or high-impact water sports. Do not operate any buttons while the watch is submerged in water.

Maintenance

Cleaning

Regularly clean your watch with a soft, dry cloth. For the rubber strap and case, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by thorough drying. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish or seals.

Battery Replacement

When the display dims, functions become erratic, or the watch stops working, the battery may need replacement. It is highly recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician. This ensures the correct battery type is used and that the watch's water resistance is maintained by properly sealing the case back.

Storage

When not in use, store your watch in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields. Keeping it in its original box or a watch case can protect it from dust and scratches.

Water Resistance Care

To maintain the water resistance of your watch:

• Ensure all buttons are fully pressed in before exposing the watch to water.
• Avoid operating buttons while the watch is wet or submerged.
• Do not expose the watch to sudden temperature changes (e.g., hot shower followed by cold water), as this can compromise seals.
• Have the water resistance seals checked periodically by a professional, especially after battery replacement.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your HEAD HE-100-01 watch, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Watch display is blank or dim: The battery may be depleted. Refer to the "Battery Replacement" section.
• Time is incorrect: The time may need to be reset. Follow the "Setting Time and Date" instructions in the Setup section. Ensure the watch is not in a different mode (e.g., world time).
• Buttons are unresponsive: Check for any debris or foreign objects obstructing the buttons. If the issue persists, the battery may be low, or there could be an internal malfunction.
• Condensation inside the watch: This indicates a breach in the water resistance. Immediately stop using the watch and seek professional service to prevent further damage.
• Alarm or timer not sounding: Ensure the alarm/timer function is activated and the volume (if adjustable) is set appropriately. Check battery level.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, please contact customer support.
