5. Maintenance
5.1. Cleaning Your Watch
Wipe the watch case and band 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.
5.2. Battery Replacement
The watch uses a Lithium Metal battery. When the display becomes dim or functions become erratic, it may be time to replace the battery. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
5.3. Water Resistance Care
To maintain the water resistance of your watch:
- Do not operate buttons while the watch is wet or submerged.
- Avoid exposing the watch to hot water, steam, or extreme temperature changes (e.g., sauna, hot springs), as this can compromise the seals.
- Have the water resistance seals checked periodically, especially after battery replacement.
