Care
- Cleaning: Regularly wipe the watch screen and casing with a soft, lint-free cloth. For tougher grime, dampen the cloth slightly with water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Strap Maintenance: If the strap is not titanium, clean it according to its material type (e.g., silicone straps can be washed with mild soap and water). For the titanium casing, ensure it's dry after cleaning.
- Charging: Use only the official HUAWEI charging cable and adapter to prevent damage to the watch or battery.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the watch in a cool, dry place. It's recommended to charge it partially (around 50%) before long-term storage.
- Avoid Extreme Conditions: Do not expose the watch to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight for prolonged periods, or strong magnetic fields, as these can affect its performance and battery life.
- Water Exposure: While durable, specific water resistance is not detailed. Avoid swimming or showering with the watch unless its water resistance rating is explicitly confirmed for such activities.
