Maintenance and Care

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your SKMEI watch.

• Cleaning: Clean the watch band and case regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Water Resistance (50m): The watch is rated for 50 meters (5 ATM) water resistance, meaning it is suitable for daily use, splashes, and brief immersion.
  • DO NOT press any buttons underwater.
  • After contact with water, especially chlorinated or saltwater, wipe the watch dry.
  • Constant contact with water, such as prolonged swimming or showering, can reduce the durability and water resistance over time.
• Temperature: Avoid exposing the watch to extreme hot or cold temperatures, as this can affect battery life and display performance.
• Impact: While durable, avoid dropping the watch or subjecting it to strong impacts.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your watch, consider the following common solutions:

• Display is blank or dim: The battery may be low. While the watch comes with a battery, its lifespan depends on usage. Consider professional battery replacement if the issue persists.
• Buttons are unresponsive: Ensure the watch is not in a locked mode (though this model typically doesn't have one). Try pressing buttons firmly. If the watch was recently exposed to water, ensure it is completely dry.
• Time is incorrect: Re-enter the time setting mode and adjust the time as per the "Setting Time and Date" section.
• Water inside the display: If moisture appears inside the watch, stop using it immediately and seek professional assistance. This indicates a breach in the water resistance seal.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, please refer to the "Warranty and Support" section for further assistance.
