Device Care
Do not remove the exterior guard piece on the right side of the watch between the two buttons. Doing so could damage the watch barometer and cause degraded barometer performance and/or adversely affect other measurements, such as air pressure and dive features, which could result in property damage or personal injury.
Do not use a sharp object to clean the device.
Never use a hard or sharp object to operate the touchscreen, or damage may result.
Do not expose the microphone and speaker openings to sunscreen or other chemicals. Doing so could clog or otherwise adversely affect the microphone and speaker, degrading their performance.
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.
Do not wash the device under high pressure, because jets of water or air may cause damage to the depth sensor or barometer.
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.
Discontinue use if the device is damaged or if it is stored at a temperature outside the specified storage temperature range.
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.
