Water Resistance
This watch is water-resistant up to 10 ATM (103 meters). This means it is suitable for showering, swimming, and snorkeling. It is not recommended for scuba diving or high-impact water sports. Do not operate buttons while the watch is wet or submerged to prevent water intrusion.
Maintenance
Cleaning
To clean your watch, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. For the stainless steel bracelet, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the watch's finish or internal components.
Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by a quartz battery. When the display dims or stops functioning, the battery may need replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.

Storage
When not in use, store your watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid exposing it to strong magnetic fields.
Troubleshooting
- Display is blank or dim: The battery may be low or depleted. Replace the battery.
- Time is incorrect: Reset the time and date following the instructions in the "Setup" section. Ensure the correct AM/PM setting if using 12-hour format.
- Buttons are unresponsive: Ensure the watch is not in a locked mode (if applicable, consult specific model features). If the issue persists, a battery replacement or professional inspection may be required.
- Condensation under crystal: This indicates a loss of water resistance. Avoid further water exposure and have the watch inspected by a professional immediately.
