4.1 Water Resistance

This watch is water resistant to 330 feet (100M). This means it is suitable for showering, swimming, and snorkeling, but not for scuba diving. Do not operate buttons while the watch is wet or submerged.

4.2 Cleaning

Clean the watch case and strap with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

4.3 Battery Replacement

The watch uses a product-specific battery. When the display dims or functions become erratic, it's 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. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your watch, try these common troubleshooting steps:

• Blank or Dim Display: The battery may be low or depleted. Replace the battery.
• Incorrect Time/Date: Re-set the time and date following the instructions in Section 2.1.
• Buttons Unresponsive: Ensure the watch is not in a locked mode (if applicable, consult the full manual for specific lock features). If the issue persists, a battery replacement might be needed, or there could be an internal malfunction.
• Water Inside Display: If moisture appears inside the watch, stop using it immediately and take it to a qualified technician. This indicates a breach in the water resistance.
