Setup
Initial Battery Information
The watch includes a monitor battery for initial operation checks. This battery may have a limited lifespan and could run out during storage or shortly after purchase. Battery depletion is not covered under warranty.
Wearing the Watch
Adjust the black PU band to fit comfortably on your wrist. Ensure it is snug enough for the pedometer function to accurately track steps, but not so tight as to restrict circulation.
Basic Time Setting
- Press the SET button to enter time setting mode.
- Use the ADJ button to adjust the flashing digit (hours, minutes, etc.).
- Press SET again to move to the next setting.
- Once all settings are complete, press SET to exit the setting mode.
Operating Instructions
Button Functions
- LIGHT: Activates the backlight for visibility in low-light conditions.
- SET: Used to change modes or confirm settings.
- ADJ: Used to adjust values or scroll through options during setting.
Time Display
The watch primarily displays the current time in a digital format. The negative display dial provides clear readability.
Pedometer Function
The integrated pedometer tracks your steps. Ensure the watch is worn securely on your wrist for accurate step counting. Specific instructions for activating or resetting the pedometer may vary; refer to the on-screen prompts or cycle through modes using the SET button to access pedometer features.
Water Resistance
The watch is water-resistant to 10 ATM (100 meters). This means it is suitable for bathing, swimming, snorkeling, and diving. However, avoid pressing buttons while submerged to prevent water ingress.
Maintenance
Cleaning
Wipe the watch case and strap with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, which can damage the finish or crystal.
Battery Replacement
When the display dims or functions become erratic, the battery may need replacement. Battery replacement should ideally be performed by a qualified technician to ensure water resistance is maintained. Please note that battery replacement is not covered under the product warranty.
Storage
Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.
Troubleshooting
- Display is blank or dim: Check the battery. If the battery is low, replace it.
- Time is incorrect: Re-enter the time setting mode and adjust the time as described in the Setup section.
- Pedometer not counting steps: Ensure the watch is worn securely on your wrist. If the issue persists, try resetting the watch (if a reset function is available, typically by holding down a combination of buttons or removing/reinserting the battery).
- Buttons are unresponsive: Ensure the watch is not in a locked mode. If submerged, avoid pressing buttons. If the issue continues, a professional inspection may be required.
