Setup

1. Unpacking and Initial Inspection

Carefully remove your watch from its packaging. Inspect the watch for any visible damage. Remove any protective films from the watch face and case back.

2. Adjusting the Watch Band

The stainless steel bracelet is designed to be adjustable by removing links to achieve a customized fit. It is recommended to have this procedure performed by a professional jeweler or watch repair service to prevent damage to the band or clasp mechanism.

3. Setting the Time and Date

Your Skagen Mellem Digital Watch features two control buttons on the side of the case for setting the time and accessing various functions. While specific button functions may vary slightly, the general procedure is as follows:

  1. Mode Button: Typically, one button (often the lower one) cycles through different display modes (e.g., Time, Date, Alarm, Stopwatch). Press this button repeatedly until the desired setting mode (e.g., time setting) is active.
  2. Set/Adjust Button: The other button (often the upper one) is used to adjust the flashing digits or values within a selected mode. Press this button to increment the hour, minute, day, or month.
  3. Once the desired time/date is set, press the Mode button again to exit the setting mode and return to the normal time display.

Operating Instructions

Basic Display

The watch's digital display shows the current time. Depending on the model, it may also show the date, day of the week, or other information. Press the Mode button (refer to Setup section) to cycle through available display options.

Water Resistance

Your Skagen Mellem Digital Watch is water resistant up to 30 meters (3 ATM). This means it will withstand splashes or brief immersion in water. It is not suitable for swimming, showering, or diving. Avoid pressing buttons while the watch is wet or submerged to prevent water ingress.

Maintenance

Cleaning Your Watch

To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe the case and band regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stainless steel bands, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the finish.

Battery Replacement

The watch is powered by a battery. When the display becomes dim or stops functioning, the battery may need replacement. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure the watch's water resistance is maintained and to prevent damage to the internal components.

Water Resistance Care

To preserve the water resistance of your watch, ensure the crown (if applicable) is pushed in completely. Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperature changes, as this can affect the seals. If the watch is exposed to saltwater, rinse it gently with fresh water and dry it thoroughly.
