4. Maintenance

4.1 Cleaning

To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stainless steel, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the finish.

4.2 Water Resistance

Your Michael Kors Whitney watch is water resistant up to 30 meters (3 ATM). This means it is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes, rain, or brief immersion in water. It is not suitable for swimming, showering, diving, or any water sports where it might be exposed to high water pressure or prolonged submersion.

• Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.
• Do not operate the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged.

4.3 Battery Replacement

The watch is powered by a quartz movement, which requires a battery. When the battery runs low, the watch hands may stop or exhibit irregular movement. Battery replacement should be performed by a certified watch technician or a Michael Kors service center to ensure proper sealing and water resistance.

4.4 Storage

When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. The original watch box is ideal for storage.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your watch, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Watch not running: Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If it is, the battery may need replacement.
• Time inaccurate: Ensure the time was set correctly. If the issue persists, the battery may be low, or the movement may require servicing.
• Condensation under crystal: This indicates moisture has entered the watch. Immediately take the watch to a service center to prevent further damage.
