Water Resistance (50m):
The XINJIA XJ-869 watch is rated for 50 meters (5 ATM) of water resistance. This means it is suitable for daily use, hand washing, rain, showering, and shallow swimming. It is not recommended for diving, snorkeling, or high-impact water sports. Do not operate buttons while the watch is submerged in water, as this can compromise the water seal.
Date, Week, and Temperature Display:
In normal time mode, the watch displays the current time, day of the week, and date. While a temperature display is listed as a feature, it may be an internal sensor for general indication and not for precise environmental temperature measurement. Refer to the time setting section for adjusting the date and day of the week.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the watch regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth and then dry thoroughly. Avoid using chemical cleaners or solvents.
- Water Exposure: While water-resistant, avoid prolonged exposure to hot water (e.g., hot showers, saunas) as steam can penetrate seals. After swimming in chlorinated or salt water, rinse the watch with fresh water and dry it.
- Temperature: Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, both hot and cold, as this can affect battery life and accuracy.
- Battery Replacement: When the display becomes dim or the watch stops functioning, the battery may need replacement. This should ideally be done by a qualified watch technician to ensure the water resistance seal is maintained.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Display is blank or dim. | Low battery. | Replace the battery. |
| Watch not keeping accurate time. | Low battery; exposure to strong magnetic fields; internal malfunction. | Replace battery; move away from magnetic sources; consult a technician if problem persists. |
