WATCH CARE AND PRECAUTIONS
This watch contains precision electronic components. To ensure the
best wear, please follow these simple guidelines for watch care:
1. Avoid leaving your watch in any extremes for long periods of time:
direct sunlight, extremely warm, or extremely cold location.
• Extreme heat will cause malfunctioning and shorten the life of
your battery.
• Extreme cold will cause your watch to gain or lose time.
2. Avoid wet conditions unless your watch is suited for them.
• Never operate any of the function buttons or crown when the
watch is submerged in water.
• Should water or condensation appear in the watch face, have the
watch checked immediately. Water can corrode electronic parts
inside the case.
3. Avoid extreme shock or impact. Your watch is designed to
withstand impact under normal use.
4. Avoid using soap or other chemicals which could damage your watch.
• Avoid wearing your watch in the presence of strong chemicals,
solvents or gases. They may cause discoloration, deterioration or
damage to the case, band and other components.
5. Avoid strong electric fields or static electricity which could harm
your watch mechanics.
• Generally, your watch is not affected by magnetic fields from
such household appliances as television sets and stereos.
6. Keep your watch clean.
• Clean your watch with a soft cloth and water only. Do not
submerge your watch under water unless it is water rated
(see caseback).
• After salt water use, rinse watch under tap water and wipe dry
with a soft cloth.
• Metal watch bands should be washed periodically to keep them
looking beautiful. Clean with a soft brush dipped in mild, soapy
water. Be sure to wipe dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
7. Periodic Inspection.
• We recommend having your watch checked once every year or
two to ensure long use and trouble-free operation.
