5. Maintenance

5.1 Water Resistance Guidelines

The TICCI T3VB watch is designed with 3ATM water resistance, making it suitable for everyday exposure to water such as hand-washing, splashes, and rain. It is important to note the following limitations:

• Do NOT wear the watch while swimming or diving.
• Avoid exposure to hot water, such as in hot showers, saunas, or hot tubs, as high temperatures can compromise the watch's water-resistant seals.
• Ensure all buttons are not pressed while the watch is wet or submerged.

5.2 Cleaning Your Watch

To clean the watch, wipe it gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the watch's finish or components.

5.3 Battery Replacement

The watch uses 1 C battery. When the display dims or functions become unreliable, it may be time to replace the battery. Battery replacement should ideally be performed by a qualified technician to ensure the water resistance seal is maintained. If replacing yourself, use the correct battery type and ensure the back cover is securely fastened.

6. Troubleshooting

• Watch not turning on/display is blank:
  • Check if the battery needs replacement.
  • Ensure the battery is correctly inserted.
• Alarms not activating:
  • Verify that the alarm is set to "ON" in the alarm settings.
  • Confirm the correct time and alarm type (vibration, sound, or both) are selected.
  • Check if the watch is in "Lock" mode, which might prevent alarms from sounding or vibrating if configured that way.
• Buttons are unresponsive:
  • Check if the watch is in "Lock" mode. Unlock it to regain full button functionality.
  • Ensure no debris is lodged around the buttons.
• Display is dim or flickering:
  • The battery may be low and require replacement.
  • Extreme temperatures can affect display performance. Allow the watch to return to a moderate temperature.
