Maintenance

Cleaning Your Watch

Regularly clean your watch with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with clean water. Ensure the watch is completely dry before storage.

Water Resistance

This watch is water resistant to 100 meters (330 feet). This makes it suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and recreational scuba diving. Do not press any buttons while the watch is submerged to maintain water resistance.

Battery Replacement

The watch uses 1 Lithium Metal battery (CR2025). When the display dims or functions become erratic, the battery may need replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.

Troubleshooting

• Display is blank or dim: The battery may be low or depleted. Replace the battery.
• Buttons are unresponsive: Ensure the watch is not in a locked mode (if applicable, though not a stated feature for this model). If issues persist, a battery replacement or professional inspection may be required.
• Time is incorrect: Re-set the time and date following the "Setting Time and Date" instructions. Ensure the correct AM/PM setting is selected.
• Water inside the watch: Immediately take the watch to a qualified service center. Do not attempt to open the watch yourself, as this will void the warranty and compromise water resistance.
