4. Dual Time Display

This watch features a dual time display function, allowing you to track two different time zones simultaneously. The primary digital display shows the main time, while a smaller digital display can be set for a second time zone.

Maintenance

1. Water Resistance Guidelines

The watch is rated for 50M water resistance. This means it can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion. However, to maintain its water resistance:

• Do NOT press any buttons while the watch is submerged in water.
• Avoid wearing the watch in hot showers, saunas, or steam rooms.
• After exposure to saltwater, rinse the watch with fresh water and dry it thoroughly.

3. Battery Replacement

When the display becomes dim or the watch stops functioning, the battery may need replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure the water resistance seal is properly maintained.

Troubleshooting

• Watch not displaying time: Check if the battery needs replacement. Ensure no buttons are stuck.
• Analog hands not matching digital time: Follow the 'Setting Analog Time' instructions in the Setup section to synchronize the hands.
• Water inside the watch: If condensation or water appears inside the watch, stop using it immediately and seek professional service to prevent further damage.
• Buttons not responding: Ensure the watch is not in a locked mode (if applicable, though this model typically does not have a lock). Try resetting the watch by removing and reinserting the battery (professional service recommended).
