3.1 Attaching the Strap to Your Smartwatch

1. Prepare the Watch: Lay your smartwatch face down on a soft, clean surface to protect the screen.

4. Compress Spring Bar: Using a spring bar tool (not included, typically), compress the spring bar.
5. Align and Release: Carefully align the other end of the spring bar with the opposite lug hole and release the spring bar, ensuring it clicks securely into place. Gently tug on the strap to confirm it is firmly attached.
6. Repeat for Second Half: Attach the second half of the strap following the same procedure.

3.2 Adjusting Strap Length (if applicable)

If your strap requires length adjustment, it typically involves removing or adding links. This process usually requires a specialized link removal tool (not included). It is recommended to seek professional assistance from a watch repair shop if you are unfamiliar with this procedure to avoid damaging the strap.

• Identify Removable Links: Look for small arrows on the underside of the links, indicating the direction to push out the pins.
• Use Link Removal Tool: Place the strap in the tool and align the pin pusher with the pin. Gently turn the tool to push the pin out.
• Remove/Add Links: Remove or add the necessary number of links.
• Reassemble: Reinsert the pins in the opposite direction, ensuring they are flush with the strap.

4. Operating the Strap

Once installed, the stainless steel strap operates as a secure and comfortable band for your smartwatch. The clasp mechanism allows for easy wearing and removal.

4.1 Using the Clasp

• To Open: Locate the release buttons or lever on the side of the clasp. Press or lift to disengage the clasp.
• To Close: Bring the two ends of the clasp together until you hear a click, indicating it is securely fastened.

5. Maintenance and Care

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your stainless steel strap.

• Cleaning: Wipe the strap regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and oils. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry immediately with a lint-free cloth.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not expose the strap to harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the finish.
• Storage: When not in use, store the strap in a clean, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Water Exposure: While stainless steel is resistant to corrosion, prolonged exposure to saltwater or chlorinated water should be avoided. Always rinse and dry the strap after such exposure.

If you encounter issues with your strap, refer to the following common problems and solutions.

6.1 Strap Difficult to Attach
