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.

- Rinse with water, or use a damp lint-free cloth.
- Allow the watch to dry completely.
NOTE:
After swimming, bathing, or exposing the watch to water, residual water in the
speaker and microphone ports may cause the watch to be temporarily quieter than
usual. The water does not cause harm to the watch, but it may take up to 24
hours for the water to evaporate. You can use the water
ejection feature to help remove water from the ports (Controls).
