Device Maintenance

Device Care

Do not use a sharp object to clean the device.
Avoid chemical cleaners, solvents, and insect repellents that can damage plastic components and finishes.
Thoroughly rinse the device with fresh water after exposure to chlorine, salt water, sunscreen, cosmetics,
alcohol, or other harsh chemicals. Prolonged exposure to these substances can damage the case.
Avoid pressing the buttons under water.
Keep the leather band clean and dry. Avoid swimming or showering with the leather band. Exposure to water or
sweat can damage or discolor the leather band. Use silicone bands as an alternative.
Avoid extreme shock and harsh treatment, because it can degrade the life of the product.
Do not store the device where prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures can occur, because it can cause
permanent damage.

Cleaning the Watch

Some users may experience skin irritation after prolonged use of the watch, especially if the user has sensitive
skin or allergies. If you notice any skin irritation, remove the watch and give your skin time to heal. To help
prevent skin irritation, ensure the watch is clean and dry, and do not overtighten the watch on your wrist.
Even small amounts of sweat or moisture can cause corrosion of the electrical contacts when connected to a
charger. Corrosion can prevent charging and data transfer.
