5. Maintenance

5.1. Battery Replacement

The watch uses a CR2032 battery. When the low power reminder activates, it is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure the water resistance seal is maintained.

5.2. Cleaning

Clean the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish or display.

5.3. Water Resistance

The watch is water-resistant up to 50 meters (164 feet). This means it is suitable for showering, swimming in shallow water, and general water exposure. Do not press buttons underwater or expose the watch to hot water or steam, as this can compromise the water seal.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your NORTH EDGE Military Watch, please try the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Display is blank or dim: Check the battery level. If low, replace the CR2032 battery.
• Incorrect time/date: Re-enter the time and date settings as described in Section 3.2.
• Inaccurate sensor readings (Altimeter, Barometer, Compass): Ensure the watch is calibrated according to the instructions (if available in a full manual) and that there are no strong magnetic fields nearby affecting the compass.
• Buttons not responding: Ensure the watch is not wet or submerged. If the issue persists, a reset may be required (refer to full manual or contact support).
