Maintenance

Water Resistance:

The watch is water resistant to 330 feet (100M). This means it is suitable for swimming and snorkeling, but not for scuba diving. Avoid operating buttons while the watch is submerged to prevent water ingress.

Battery Replacement:

When the display fades or stops functioning, the battery may need replacement. The watch features a screw-down back case for battery access. It is recommended to have battery replacement performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure water resistance is maintained.

Cleaning:

Clean the watch case and strap with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, which can damage the resin and display.

Troubleshooting

• Display is blank or dim: This typically indicates a low battery. Refer to the "Battery Replacement" section.
• Buttons are unresponsive: Ensure the watch is not in a locked mode (if applicable, consult specific model instructions if this feature exists). If unresponsive, a battery issue or internal malfunction may be present.
• Time is inaccurate: Re-set the time following the "Setting Time and Date" instructions. If inaccuracy persists, the battery may be weak or the quartz movement may require servicing.
• Condensation under crystal: This indicates a breach in water resistance. Immediately cease water exposure and seek professional servicing to prevent further damage.
