6. Maintenance
6.1 Cleaning Your Apple Watch
To clean your Apple Watch, power it off and disconnect it from the charger. Wipe the watch and band with a soft, lint-free cloth. If necessary, slightly dampen the cloth with fresh water. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive materials, or compressed air, as these can damage the device.
6.2 Water Resistance
The Apple Watch Series 11 is water resistant, not waterproof. It can be used for shallow-water activities like swimming in a pool or ocean. However, it should not be used for scuba diving, waterskiing, or other activities involving high-velocity water or submersion below shallow depths. Water resistance may decrease over time with normal wear. Avoid exposing your Apple Watch to soaps, shampoos, conditioners, lotions, perfumes, solvents, detergents, acids, acidic foods, insect repellent, sunscreen, oil, or hair dye, as these can negatively affect water seals and acoustic membranes.
