5.2. Rotation Modes

Use the Gear Switch to select one of the two available rotation modes:

• Mode 1 (Clockwise): Rotates forward for 2 minutes, then stops for 6 minutes, and repeats the cycle.
• Mode 2 (Counter-Clockwise): Rotates in reverse for 2 minutes, then stops for 6 minutes, and repeats the cycle.

Consult your watch manufacturer's recommendations for the appropriate winding direction (clockwise, counter-clockwise, or bi-directional) and Turns Per Day (TPD) for your specific automatic watch model.

5.3. Automatic Start-Stop Technology

The Isili watch winder features an innovative light-sensitive function:

• When the Light Sensitive/Standard Mode Switch is set to light-sensitive mode, the winder will automatically stop rotating if no light source is detected (e.g., in a dark room). This ensures silent operation during nighttime.
• When light is detected again, the winder will resume its selected rotation mode.
• To disable this feature and have the winder operate continuously regardless of light conditions, set the Light Sensitive/Standard Mode Switch to standard mode.

6. Watch Compatibility

The elastic memory foam watch cushion is designed for broad compatibility. It can accommodate watches with:

• Bracelet length up to 20 cm
• Bracelet width up to 30 mm
• Dial size up to 60 mm

This design ensures a secure fit for most men's and women's automatic watches.

7. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use the provided wiping glass cloth or a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the winder. For the acrylic window, use a soft, lint-free cloth to avoid scratches. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Dust Protection: Keep the winder in a clean environment to prevent dust accumulation, which can affect its operation and appearance.
• Handling: Handle the winder with care. Avoid dropping it or subjecting it to strong impacts.

8. Troubleshooting

• Winder Not Rotating:
  • Ensure the power adapter is securely connected to both the winder and a working electrical outlet.
  • If using the light-sensitive mode, check if the room is too dark. The winder will stop in darkness. Try switching to standard mode or ensuring adequate light.
  • Verify the Gear Switch is set to Mode 1 or Mode 2, not off.
• Excessive Noise:
  • Ensure the winder is placed on a flat, stable surface. Uneven surfaces can cause vibrations.
  • Check that the watch is properly seated on the pillow and not touching the winder's interior walls.
  • The motor is designed for quiet operation (approx. 5 dB). If noise is significantly louder, contact customer support.
• Watch Not Winding:
  • Confirm the correct rotation mode (clockwise or counter-clockwise) for your specific watch model. Refer to your watch's manual.
  • Ensure the watch is fully wound manually before placing it in the winder, especially if it has been stopped for a long time.
