4. Maintenance
4.1 Water Resistance
This watch is water resistant up to 100 meters (330 feet). This rating means the watch is suitable for swimming and snorkeling, but it is not recommended for scuba diving. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before exposing the watch to water.
- Avoid operating the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged.
- Rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to salt water or chlorinated water, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
4.2 Cleaning Your Watch
To maintain the appearance of your watch:
- Wipe the case and strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
- For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the watch's finish.
4.3 Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by one Lithium Metal battery (included). When the watch stops running or the time becomes inconsistent, the battery likely needs to be replaced. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
5. Troubleshooting
- Watch not running: Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If it is, the battery may need replacement.
- Time inaccuracy: If the watch is consistently fast or slow, the battery may be low, or the movement may require servicing. Consult a professional watch repair service.
- Condensation under crystal: This indicates a breach in the watch's water resistance. Immediately take the watch to a service center to prevent further damage.
