Care
- Cleaning: Regularly wipe your band and strap with a soft, damp cloth to remove sweat, dirt, and oils. For the Midnight Black aluminum alloy frame, avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Water Exposure: While 5ATM waterproof, it's recommended to rinse the band with fresh water after swimming in chlorinated or saltwater to prevent residue buildup. Dry it thoroughly before charging.
- Strap Maintenance: If using multi-material straps, follow specific care instructions for each material. For instance, textile straps might require occasional hand washing. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
- Charging Port: Keep the charging contacts on the back of the band clean and dry to ensure efficient charging.
- Avoid Chemicals: Do not expose the band to strong chemicals like detergents, alcohol, or insect repellents, as these can damage the materials and water resistance.
