The hands and markers on your NAVIFORCE 9197 watch are coated with luminous material. To activate the luminescence, expose the watch to a light source (natural or artificial) for a few minutes. The glow will be visible in dark environments.

3. Water Resistance

Your watch is water resistant to 30 meters (3ATM). This means it can withstand daily use such as hand washing, rain, or accidental splashes. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, or showering. Do not press any buttons while the watch is submerged in water, as this can compromise the water seal.

Maintenance and Care

1. Cleaning Your Watch

• Wipe the watch case and crystal with a soft, dry cloth.
• For the leather strap, avoid excessive moisture. If it gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally, away from direct sunlight or heat.
• Do not use chemical cleaners or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish or strap.

2. Battery Replacement

The watch is powered by a quartz movement requiring a C battery (included). When the watch stops or the digital display fades, it indicates that the battery needs replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure the water resistance seal is maintained.

3. General Care

• Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures (hot or cold) or sudden temperature changes.
• Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields, as these can affect the accuracy of the quartz movement.
• Protect the watch from impacts and drops. The hardened mineral glass is scratch-resistant but not entirely impervious to damage.
