Maintenance and Care

Water Resistance

Your Carlington CT3388 watch is water-resistant up to 30 meters (3 ATM). This means it is suitable for daily use and can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water. However, it is not recommended for swimming, diving, or prolonged water activities. Do not operate buttons while the watch is wet or submerged.

Shock Resistance

The watch features a shock-resistant construction designed to endure accidental impacts and rough handling during active use. While durable, avoid unnecessary harsh impacts to prolong the watch's lifespan.

Cleaning

Wipe the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by drying thoroughly. Avoid using chemical cleaners or solvents.

Battery Replacement

When the display dims or functions become erratic, the battery may need replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and water resistance.

Troubleshooting

  • Digital display is blank or dim: The battery may be low. Replace the battery.
  • Analog hands do not match digital time: This watch typically synchronizes analog and digital time. If they are out of sync, try resetting the watch (if a reset button is available, usually a small recessed button requiring a pin) or consult a professional.
  • Buttons are unresponsive: Ensure the watch is not in a locked mode (if applicable, check manual for specific model features). If wet, dry thoroughly before operating buttons. If the issue persists, the internal mechanism may require inspection.
  • Water inside the watch: Despite being water-resistant, extreme conditions or improper handling (e.g., pressing buttons underwater) can lead to water ingress. Immediately take the watch to a service center to prevent further damage.
