10 ATM

It is a water-resistant standard (ISO 22810) defined by the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO). It indicates that the wearable device can stand up to simulated 100-metre static water pressure at room temperature for 10 minutes, and does not mean that the wearable device is water-resistant in water that is 100 metres deep.

The wearable device complies with the 10 ATM-rated resistance level under the ISO 22810:2010 standard, which indicates that they can withstand up to 100-metre static water pressure for 10 minutes, but does not actually mean that they are water-resistant in water that is 100-metre deep. Water resistance is not permanent, and performance may deteriorate with daily wear and tear.

It can be used in shallow waters such as in swimming pools and at the beach, and can be worn and used during exercise, on rainy days, and when washing your hands.

If a watch with a speaker is soaked in water or the watch is worn in water, promptly remove water stains from the speaker or use the drainage feature of the watch to avoid the impact of the water stains on the speaker.

The wearable device is not suitable for use in the following scenarios:

1. Dives, scuba dives, platform dives, high-pressure rinsing, or other activities that involve high water pressure or fast-flowing water.

2. Hot showers, hot springs, saunas (steam rooms), and other activities in high-temperature and high-humidity environments.

3. Leather and metal straps are not designed to withstand water. It is recommended that you wear other types of straps, if you wish to swim or play other water activities.

(Damage to the wearable device caused by immersion in liquid is not covered by the warranty if the wearable device is used in an unsuitable scenario.)

5 ATM

It is a water-resistant standard (ISO 22810) defined by the ISO. It indicates that the wearable device can stand up to simulated 50-metre static water pressure at room temperature for 10 minutes, and does not mean that the wearable device is water-resistant in water that is 50 metres deep.

The wearable device complies with the 5 ATM-rated resistance level under the ISO 22810:2010 standard, which indicates that they can withstand up to 50-metre static water pressure for 10 minutes, but does not actually mean that they are water-resistant in water that is 50-metre deep. Water resistance is not permanent, and performance may deteriorate with daily wear and tear.

It can be used in shallow waters such as in swimming pools and at the beach, and can be worn and used during exercise, on rainy days, and when washing your hands.

If a watch with a speaker is soaked in water or the watch is worn in water, promptly remove water stains from the speaker or use the drainage feature of the watch to avoid the impact of the water stains on the speaker.
