CARE OF YOUR STOPWATCH
*WATER-RESISTANCE
The stopwatch is designed to withstand accidental contact with water such as
splashes or rain, but it is not designed for use in water. Do not operate the buttons
when the stopwatch is wet.
*TEMPERATURE
Do not leave your stopwatch under direct sunlight or in very high temperatures for a
long time, or the display may become black. Do not leave your stopwatch in very low
temperature as this may cause a slight time loss or gain and the change of digits
becomes slow. In both cases the above conditions will be corrected when the
stopwatch returns to normal temperature.
*SHOCKS
Be careful not to drop your stopwatch or hit it against hard surfaces as it may cause
mechanical damages.
*STATIC ELECTRICITY
The integrated circuit in your stopwatch can be affected by static electricity. If the
static electricity is very strong a permanent damage can occur. Be careful of the
screen of the TV set and the wearing of clothing made of synthetic materials in dry
weather; in such cases a very strong static electricity can be generated.
*MAGNETISM
Not affected.
*CHEMICALS
Do not expose your stopwatch to solvents such as gasoline and alcohol, spray of
cosmetics, cleaners, paints etc as they may cause damage to the stopwatch.
