WEARING THE SMARTWATCH

People with very sensitive skin may notice some irritation after wearing the Kidizoom Smartwatch DX for extended periods of time. The skin may become irritated when moisture, sweat, soap, or other irritants get trapped under the watch band and are left in contact with the skin. To prevent this, we suggest children remove the watch before going to bed for the night, take the watch off if it's feeling uncomfortable, and keep their wrist and the band clean and dry.
In addition, wearing the watch too tightly may also cause irritation. Make sure the fit is good - tight enough so the watch stays in place but not so tight that it's uncomfortable. If you notice any redness, swelling, or other irritation, you may want to consult a doctor before wearing the watch again.

The MASTER POWER  SWITCH is located on the back of the watch face.  Slide the switch up to turn ON Master Power Switch-onand fully charge  the Kidizoom Smartwatch DX before use.

Wearing the Smartwatch

Wearing the watch for extended periods of time may trap moisture between the band and the wrist and cause irritation. In order to prevent this, we suggest children remove the watch before going to bed for the night, take the watch off if it's feeling uncomfortable, and keep their wrist and the band clean and dry.
WARNING: A very small percentage of the public, due to an existing condition, may experience epileptic seizures or momentary loss of consciousness when viewing certain types of flashing colors or patterns. While Kidizoom Smartwatch DX does not contribute to any additional risks, we do recommend that parents supervise their children while they play games. If your child experiences dizziness, altered vision, disorientation, or convulsions, discontinue use immediately and consult your doctor. Please note that focusing on at close range and handling a Kidizoom Smartwatch DX as a game controller for a prolonged period of time may cause fatigue or discomfort. We recommend that children take a 15-minute break for every hour of play.
