5. Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning: Wipe the watch with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals.
• Water Resistance: The watch is water resistant up to 30 meters (3 ATM). This means it can withstand splashes or brief immersion in water. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, or showering.
• Temperature: Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight for prolonged periods, or sudden temperature changes.
• Battery Replacement: The approximate battery life is 5 years (using a CR2016 battery). When the display becomes dim or functions become erratic, it's time to replace the battery. It is recommended to have battery replacement performed by a qualified technician to ensure water resistance is maintained.

• Incorrect Time/Date: Re-enter the Timekeeping Mode and adjust the settings as described in Section 3.1.
