Care and Maintenance

The Excel watch is durable and waterproof. To help ensure reliable operation, the following care and maintenance
guidelines are recommended :
• Avoid exposing the watch to extreme environmental conditions for a prolonged period of time.
• Avoid severe impacts on the watch.
• You may clean the watch occasionally with a soft, damp cloth.
• Brush the clip contacts at the bottom of the watch regularly. Dirt build-up on the surface of the contact points may
affect normal charging and data transfer. *Note: Use a soft-bristled brush (included). Hard bristles or wire brushes
may leave scratches on the watch.
• DO NOT expose the watch to strong chemicals such as gasoline and alcohol, as they will damage the watch.
• Store the watch in a dry place when it is not in use.

Charging the Battery

The rechargeable battery of the Excel Watch is long lasting and provides up to 3 rounds of golf (based upon average of
4 hours per round), or one year of use as an everyday (time only) watch. However, battery life may be reduced due to
a variety of factors (external temperature, etc). All rechargeable batteries lose their effective charge length over time.
Charging your battery when it is 25% will guarantee that you will be able to make it through the entire next round.
To check your remaining battery life, press the MENU button (2) and select BATTERY. To recharge the battery, insert the
watch into the charging cradle, with the charge contacts on the back of the watch (Fig 2) lined up with the charge pins on
the left side of the cradle (Fig 3). Then, connect the charging cradle to an open USB port on your computer, a powered USB
hub, or smartphone AC charger. Look for the screen to display "CHARGING" to indicate that your Excel watch is charging-
make sure to connect from either the Home (Time) screen (as seen on pg. 4) or from the BATTERY screen (Fig 1).
