Product Care Cautions, Notes and Warnings
CAUTION: Your instrument is designed to be water resistant to a static pressure of 164 feet /
50 meters / 5 Atmospheres / 5 Bar. This unit is suited for surface swimming and clear-water
showering or bathing. This unit should not be used for snorkeling or scuba diving.
NOTE: Units of meters and feet that indicate a pressure rating do NOT equal
the recommended depth for scuba diving.
NOTE: One atmosphere (ATM) or Bar of pressure, is equivalent to the pressure exerted
on a static object lying in a depth of 10 metres (1 ATM or Bar equals 10 meters).
CAUTION: This pressure is increased with motion accordingly. Fast or rapid movement underwater
will increase the pressure on the unit dramatically. If you dive into a pool to a depth of 2.5 meters,
the pressure on the unit will not be 0.25 atmospheres.
DO NOT wear the watch in a soapy dish water or bubble bath.
The alkali contained in soaps can damage the rubber seals.
DO NOT use the watch in a hot tub or extremely hot shower or bath.
High temperatures and steam can damage the rubber seals.
DO NOT expose the watch to sudden changes of temperature by going from a hot tub to cold water.
This can make the rubber seals contract and allow water to penetrate.
