Power saving

Both the battery capacity and user's operation will affect your watch's battery life. For example, if you have installed too many apps or use your watch heavily, the standby time will decrease.

To prolong the standby time of your watch, perform one of the following two methods:

Method 1: Access the settings screen  in Android Wear app, and add the apps that you do not wish to receive notifications for in Block app notifications.

Method 2: On your watch, enable Always-on Screen in Settings > Display.

Your watch's battery capacity, functions, and usage will all affect your watch's battery life.

Water and dust resistance

The IP68 design helps protect your watch from dust and moisture. You can wear your watch when you are washing your hands or in the rain. Do not wear it when washing cars, swimming, diving, scuba diving, or showering.

 
  • IPXX is a water and dust resistance standard (IEC60529)made by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). The first digit indicates the dust resistance level (0–6 levels, and level 6 is the highest), and the second digit indicates the water resistance level (0–8 levels, and level 8 is the highest).
  • Your watch supports the highest level of water and dust resistance. You can use your watch in the water with a depth of up to 1.5 m for 30 minutes (the difference between the test water's temperature and product's temperature shall be within 5°).
  • Please follow the instructions stated in this section when using your watch. Huawei is not liable for any damage caused by improper operations.

Maintenance

Cleaning your watch

Wipe your watch dry if it comes into contact with water. Keep the watch clean and dry. Use soft cloth to wipe and clean your watch regularly.

Maintaining your watch face

The watch display is protected by a layer of scratch-resistant glass and ceramic. However, avoid dropping the watch or exposing it to strong impacts. Do not allow the watch face to come into contact with sharp objects. For example, avoid scratching the face with a knife or against a rock.

Leather strap maintenance

  • Pull the strap carefully when putting your watch on to reduce wear and tear.
  • Keep your leather strap in a dry, well-ventilated area and wipe it dry immediately after exposure to water. Use leather conditioner to clean your strap regularly. Avoid placing your watch in places with direct sunlight or moisture to prevent deformation.
  • Wipe off any water or dirt using a clean cloth or tissue. Place the strap in a cool, well-ventilated area to dry and then apply a layer of leather polish.
  • Avoid wearing the watch in hot or rainy weather or when swimming, taking a shower, or exercising for prolonged periods.
  • Do not dry the strap by placing it in direct sunlight or by using heating appliances such as microwaves or hairdryers, otherwise it may shrink or expand.
  • Keep the watch strap away from flammable, acidic, and alkaline materials, as well as inks or makeups. Natural marks or imperfections on the leather are not covered by the warranty.
  • Avoid contact with rough or sharp objects to prevent damage to your strap.
  • Do not compress the strap or bend it for prolonged periods, otherwise it may distort it.
  • Do not pull the strap too tight to prevent creases. Do not bend the strap in the wrong direction, as this will result in creases or cracks in the leather.
  • Do not attempt to punch holes in the strap yourself. Failure to apply protective oil after punching holes will cause the strap to crack.
  • Apply a thin layer of Vaseline to the strap during the autumn and winter. Wipe the strap dry using a soft cloth and then apply the Vaseline. Reapply the Vaseline weekly.
  • The leather strap is not covered under the warranty. Replace the strap once it is damaged. The service life of your strap is determined by your use and environment.
