Maintenance
Cleaning Your Watch
To maintain the appearance of your Lorus watch, wipe the case and strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by drying. Avoid using chemical cleaners, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish and seals.
Water Resistance
This watch is rated for 10 BAR (100 meters) water resistance. This means it is suitable for swimming, showering, and snorkeling. However, it is not suitable for scuba diving. Do not operate the buttons while the watch is wet or submerged, as this can compromise the water resistance.
Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by a long-life battery. When the display becomes dim or functions become erratic, it may be time for a battery replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure the water resistance is maintained after the case back is opened.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Display is blank or dim. | Low battery. | Replace the battery. |
| Time is incorrect. | Time not set correctly or accidental button press. | Refer to "Initial Time Setting" section to reset the time. |
| Buttons are unresponsive. | Watch may be in a locked mode or battery is very low. | Try pressing the MODE button repeatedly. If still unresponsive, consider battery replacement. |
