Disassembly and Assembly of the Watch Strap

Please refer to the illustrations to disassemble or assemble the watch strap.

Note:
Once the strap is assembled, pull the strap properly to ensure it is installed successfully.

Wearing the Watch

Wear the watch strap not too tightly or too loosely, and leave enough space for the skin to breathe. This makes you feel comfortable and allows the sensor to function.
When measuring blood oxygen saturation, wear the watch correctly. Avoid wearing the watch on the wrist joint, keep your arm ﬂat, maintain a comfortable (appropriately tight) ﬁtting between the watch and the skin of your wrist, and keep your arm still throughout the measurement process. When affected by external factors (arm sag, arm sway, arm hair, tattoo, etc.), the measurement result may be inaccurate or the measurement may fail and provide no output.
We recommend that you tighten the watch strap during exercise and loosen it afterwards.

After wearing the device while bathing (for devices that support bathing), swimming (for devices that support swimming), or sweating, please promptly clean and dry the device.
The leather strap is not waterproof. Avoid getting the strap wet, as this may shorten its service life.
