4. Maintenance

4.1 Cleaning

To maintain the appearance and functionality of your smartwatch:

• Wipe the watch face and strap regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents, as these can damage the materials.
• Ensure the watch is dry before wearing it, especially after cleaning or exposure to water.

4.2 Water Resistance (IP68)

The NO.1 F3 Smartwatch is rated IP68, meaning it is dust-tight and protected against continuous immersion in water up to a specified depth (typically 1.5 meters for 30 minutes). This makes it suitable for activities like swimming and showering.

Important Considerations:

• Do not press any buttons while the watch is submerged in water.
• Avoid exposure to hot water, steam, or high-pressure water jets, as this can compromise the water resistance seals.
• After exposure to saltwater, rinse the watch with fresh water and dry it thoroughly.
• Water resistance is not a permanent condition and may decrease over time with normal wear and tear.

4.3 Battery Care

The smartwatch uses a button cell battery designed for long life. To maximize battery longevity:

• Avoid extreme temperatures, which can degrade battery performance.
• If the battery is replaceable, ensure it is replaced by a qualified technician or follow specific instructions provided with the replacement battery.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your NO.1 F3 Smartwatch, refer to the following common solutions:

• Watch Not Turning On:

• Unable to Pair with Smartphone:
  • Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone and the smartwatch.
  • Make sure the smartwatch is within the Bluetooth range of your phone (typically 10 meters).
  • Restart both your smartphone and the smartwatch.
  • Clear previous Bluetooth connections on your phone and try pairing again.
  • Ensure the companion app is installed and has necessary permissions.
• Notifications Not Appearing:
  • Verify that the smartwatch is successfully paired with your phone.
  • Check notification settings within the companion app and your smartphone's system settings to ensure permissions are granted for the app and specific applications (e.g., WhatsApp, SMS).
  • Ensure the "Do Not Disturb" mode is not active on either device.
• Inaccurate Pedometer/Sleep Data:
  • Ensure the smartwatch is worn correctly and securely on your wrist.
  • Calibrate the device through the companion app if such an option is available.
  • Environmental factors or specific movements might affect accuracy.
• Display Issues:

  If the display is dim or unresponsive, try activating the LIGHT button. If the issue persists, check the battery or restart the device.
