5.1 Uw horloge schoonmaken
- Wipe the watch case and resin strap with a soft, damp doek. Bij hardnekkig vuil kunt u een milde zeepoplossing gebruiken, waarna u het oppervlak met schoon water afspoelt en goed afdroogt.
- Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the watch's finish.
5.2 Onderhoud van de waterbestendigheid
- Ensure the crown (if applicable) is pushed in completely before exposing the watch to water.
- Vermijd het bedienen van knoppen onder water.
- Spoel het horloge na blootstelling aan zout water af met zoet water en droog het grondig af.
- Water resistance is not a permanent condition and may eventually be compromised by wear and tear or accidental damage. It is recommended to have the water resistance checked periodically by an authorized service center.
5.3 Batterij vervangen
The watch uses 1 Lithium Metal battery (included). When the display dims or functions become erratic, it may be time to replace the battery. It is highly recommended to have battery replacement performed by a qualified watch technician or an authorized Timex service center to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
