Initial Inspection

Upon unboxing, inspect the watch for any visible damage. Ensure all protective films are removed from the watch face and strap.

Strap Adjustment

The stainless steel strap can be adjusted to fit your wrist. If the strap is too long, links can be removed by a professional watchmaker or using a watch link removal tool. Ensure the clasp closes securely after adjustment.

Setting the Date

3. Important: Do not set the date between 9 PM and 1 AM to avoid damaging the movement.
4. Push the crown back to the normal position.
5. Hint: If the date changes during the day, it indicates the AM/PM was incorrectly set. Advance the hour hand by 12 hours to correct this.

Setting Analog Time

Digital Display Functions

Maintenance

Water Resistance (3ATM)

Your NAVIFORCE NF9182 watch is rated for 3ATM water resistance. This means it is suitable for daily use and can withstand splashes, rain, and hand washing. However, it is not suitable for showering, bathing, diving, snorkeling, or any water-related work where it would be submerged or exposed to high-pressure water.

Cleaning

Wipe the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt and sweat. For the stainless steel strap, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying.

Battery Replacement

The watch uses an SR920SW battery. When the watch stops or the digital display fades, it's time to replace the battery. It is recommended to have battery replacement performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.

Storage

When not in use, store your watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields.

Troubleshooting

• Watch not running: Check if the crown is pushed in completely. If the watch still does not run, the battery may need replacement.
• Incorrect time/date: Refer to the 'Operating Instructions' section for proper setting procedures. Ensure the date is not set between 9 PM and 1 AM.
• Digital display not working: This could indicate a low battery. If the analog movement is still working, the digital display may require less power and fail first. Replace the battery.
• Condensation inside the watch: This indicates a loss of water resistance. Avoid further contact with water and have the watch inspected by a professional immediately.
