of separately from household waste. Don’t incinerate the battery. For
information about battery service and recycling, see.
Distraction:
Using Apple Watch in some circumstances can distract you and may cause a
dangerous situation (for example, avoid reading a text message while driving a
car). Observe rules that prohibit or restrict the use of mobile devices.
Navigation:
Maps, directions, and location-based apps depend on data services. These
data services are subject to change and may not be available in all areas,
resulting in maps, directions, or location-based information that may be
unavailable, inaccurate, or incomplete. Some Maps features require Location
Services. Compare the information provided on Apple Watch to your surroundings
and defer to posted signs to resolve any discrepancies. Do not use these
services while performing activities that require your full attention. Always
comply with posted signs and the laws and regulations in the areas where you

Watch Magnetic Charging Dock, or the power adapter are plugged in to a power
source, don’t sleep on them or place them under a blanket, pillow, or your
body. Take special care if you have a physical condition that affects your
ability to detect heat against the body. Remove Apple Watch if it becomes
uncomfortably warm.
Hearing loss:
Listening to sound at high volumes may damage your hearing. Background
noise, as well as continued exposure to high volume levels, can make sounds
seem quieter than they actually are. Turn on audio playback and check the
volume before inserting a Bluetooth-connected headset in your ear. For more
information about hearing loss, go to the.
WARNING: To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume
levels for long periods.
Radiofrequency exposure:
Apple Watch uses radio signals to connect to wireless networks. For
information about radio frequency (RF) energy resulting from radio signals and
steps you can take to minimize exposure, open the Apple Watch app on iPhone,
tap My Watch, then tap General > About > Legal > RF Exposure or visit .
Radio frequency interference:
Observe signs and notices that prohibit or restrict the use of electronic

Watch Magnetic Charging Cable, and the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Dock if
you suspect they are interfering with your medical device.
Not a medical device:
Apple Watch is not a medical device and should not be used as a substitute
for professional medical judgment. It is not designed or intended for use in
the diagnosis of disease or other conditions, or in the cure, mitigation,
treatment, or prevention of any condition or disease. Please consult your
healthcare provider prior to making any decisions related to your health.
Medical conditions:
Before starting or modifying any exercise program using Apple Watch,
consult your physician. Be careful and attentive while exercising. Stop
exercising immediately if you feel pain, or feel faint, dizzy, exhausted, or
short of breath. By exercising, you assume all associated inherent risks
including any injury that may result from such activity. If you have any
medical condition that you believe could be affected by Apple Watch (for
example, seizures, blackouts, eyestrain, or headaches), consult with your
physician prior to using Apple Watch.
Explosive and other atmospheric conditions:
Charging or using Apple Watch in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere, such as areas where the air contains high levels of flammable
chemicals, vapors, or particles (such as grain, dust, or metal powders), may
be hazardous. Exposing Apple Watch to environments having high concentrations
of industrial chemicals, including near evaporating liquified gasses such as
helium, may damage or impair Apple Watch functionality. Obey all signs and
instructions.
High-consequence activities:
Apple Watch is not intended for use where the failure of the device could
lead to death, personal injury, or severe environmental damage.
Choking hazard:
Some Apple Watch bands may present a choking hazard to small children. Keep
these bands away from small children.
Skin sensitivities:
Some people may experience reactions to certain materials used in jewelry,
watches, and other wearable items that are in prolonged contact with their
skin. This can be due to allergies, environmental factors, extended exposure
to irritants like soap, sweat, or other causes. You may be more likely to
experience irritation from any wearable device if you have allergies or other
sensitivities. If you have known skin sensitivities, please take special care
when wearing Apple Watch. You may be more likely to experience irritation from
Apple Watch if you wear it too tightly. Remove Apple Watch periodically to
allow your skin to breathe. Keeping Apple Watch and the band clean and dry
will reduce the possibility of skin irritation. If you experience redness,
swelling, itchiness, or any other irritation or discomfort on your skin
around, or beneath, your Apple Watch, please remove Apple Watch and consult
your physician before resuming wear. Continued use, even after symptoms
subside, may result in renewed or increased irritation.
Apple Watch models with a stainless steel or aluminum case, the stainless
steel portions of some Apple Watch bands, the metallic portions of Hermès
bands, and the magnets in the watch and bands contain some nickel. Nickel
exposure from these materials is unlikely, but customers with known nickel
allergies should be attentive when wearing them until they can determine they
are not experiencing an allergic reaction.
The Apple Watch case and the Apple Watch bands contain trace amounts of
acrylates and methacrylates. Acrylates and methacrylates are found in many
consumer products that come in contact with the skin, such as adhesive
bandages. Some people may be sensitive to them, or may develop sensitivities
over time. Apple Watch and its bands are designed so that parts containing
acrylates and methacrylates are not in direct contact with your skin.
The materials used in Apple Watch and the Apple Watch bands meet the standards
set for jewelry by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, applicable
European regulations, and other international standards.
Important handling information for Apple Watch
Exposure to liquid:
Apple Watch is water resistant but not waterproof. You may, for example,
wear and use Apple Watch during exercise (exposure to sweat is OK), in the
rain, and while washing your hands. If water splashes onto the watch, wipe it
off with a nonabrasive, lint-free cloth. Try to minimize exposing Apple Watch
to perfume, soap, solvents, detergent, acids or acidic foods, soapy water,
insect repellent, lotions, sunscreen, oil, or hair dye. Follow the
instructions below in the “Cleaning and care” section if Apple Watch comes
into contact with them.
Apple Watch Series 1 and Apple Watch (1st generation) have a water resistance
rating of IPX7 under IEC standard 60529. Apple Watch Series 1 and Apple Watch
(1st generation) are splash and water-resistant, but submerging Apple Watch
Series 1 and Apple Watch (1st generation) is not recommended.
Apple Watch Series 2, Apple Watch Series 3, Apple Watch Series 4, and Apple
Watch Series 5 have a water resistance rating of 50 meters under ISO standard
22810:2010. This means that they may be used for shallow-water activities like
swimming in a pool or ocean. However, Apple Watch Series 2, Apple Watch Series
3, Apple Watch Series 4, and Apple Watch Series 5 should not be used for scuba
diving, water skiing, or other activities involving high-velocity water or
submersion below shallow depth. Water-resistance is not a permanent condition
and may diminish over time. Apple Watch cannot be rechecked or resealed for
water resistance. The following may affect the water-resistance of Apple Watch
in particular and should be avoided:
- Dropping Apple Watch or subjecting it to other impacts.
- Exposing Apple Watch to soap or soapy water, for example while showering or bathing.
- Exposing Apple Watch to perfume, solvents, detergent, acids or acidic foods, insect repellent, lotions, sunscreen, oil, or hair dye.
- Exposing Apple Watch to high-velocity water, for example while water skiing.
- Wearing Apple Watch in the sauna or steam room
Not all bands are appropriate for water use. For example, the stainless steel
and leather bands are not water-resistant and should not be exposed to
liquids.
Cleaning and care:
Keep Apple Watch clean and dry. Clean and dry Apple Watch, the band, and
your skin after workouts or heavy sweating. Dry Apple Watch and the band
thoroughly if they are exposed to fresh water. Clean Apple Watch if it comes
in contact with anything that may cause stains or other damage, such as dirt
or sand, makeup, ink, soap, detergent, acids or acidic foods, or comes in
contact with liquids other than fresh water, including those that may lead to
skin irritation such as sweat, salt water, soapy water, pool water, perfume,
insect repellent, lotions, sunscreen, oil, adhesive remover, hair dye, or
solvents. The Apple Watch and band colors may vary or fade over time. After
swimming with Apple Watch Series 2, Apple Watch Series 3, Apple Watch Series
4, or Apple Watch Series 5, gently rinse it with warm tap water.
How to clean Apple Watch:
- Turn off Apple Watch. Press and hold the side button, then drag the Power Off slider to the right.
- Depress the band release buttons and remove the band. See.
- Wipe Apple Watch clean with a nonabrasive, lint-free cloth. If necessary, you can also lightly dampen the cloth with fresh water.
- Dry Apple Watch with a nonabrasive, lint-free cloth. To help avoid damaging Apple Watch, observe the following:
- Don’t clean Apple Watch while it’s charging.
- Don’t dry Apple Watch or the bands using any external heat source (for example, a hair dryer).
- Don’t use cleaning products, ultrasonic cleaners, or compressed air when cleaning your Apple Watch.
The front of Apple Watch is made of Ion-X glass (strengthened glass) or
sapphire crystal, each with a fingerprint-resistant oleophobic (oil repellent)
coating. This coating wears over time with normal usage. Cleaning products and
abrasive materials will further diminish the coating, and may scratch the
glass or the sapphire crystal.
Using buttons, Digital Crown, connectors, and ports:
Never apply excessive pressure to a button or the Digital Crown on Apple
Watch, or force a charging connector into a port, because this may cause
damage that is not covered under the warranty. If the connector and port don’t
join with reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Check for obstructions
and make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have positioned
the connector correctly in relation to the port. Certain usage patterns can
contribute to the fraying or breaking of cables. The cable attached to a
charging unit, like any other metal wire or cable, is subject to becoming weak
or brittle if repeatedly bent in the same spot. Aim for gentle curves instead
of angles in the cable. Regularly inspect the cable and connector for any
kinks, breaks, bends, or other damage. Should you find any such damage,
discontinue use of the cable.
Magnetic Charging Cable and Magnetic Charging Dock:
Discoloration of the charging surface of the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging
Cable and the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Dock may occur after regular use
due to dirt and debris that come in contact with the magnetic surface. This is
normal. Cleaning the magnetic charging surface may reduce, or prevent, such
discoloration, and will help to prevent damage to your charger and Apple
Watch. To clean the charging surface, disconnect the charger from both Apple
Watch and the power adapter and wipe with a damp, nonabrasive cloth. Dry with
a nonabrasive, lint-free cloth before resuming charging. Do not use cleaning
products when cleaning the charging surface.
Operating temperature:
Apple Watch is designed to work best in ambient temperatures between 32°
and 95° F (0° and 35° C) and be stored in temperatures between -4° and 113° F
(-20° and 45° C). Apple Watch can be damaged and battery life shortened if
stored or operated outside of these temperature ranges. Avoid exposing Apple
Watch to dramatic changes in temperature or humidity. If the interior
temperature of Apple Watch exceeds normal operating temperatures (for example,
in a hot car or in direct sunlight for extended periods of time), you may
experience the following as it attempts to regulate its temperature:
- Charging may slow or stop.
- The display may dim.
- A temperature warning screen may appear.
- Some data transfer may be paused or delayed.
- Some apps may close.
- On Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS + Cellular), Apple Watch Series 4 (GPS + Cellular), or Apple Watch Series 5 (GPS + Cellular) you might not have a cellular connection or you might not be able to make or receive calls. Normal cellular functionality resumes after Apple Watch cools. However, you can still make emergency calls.
Important: You may not be able to use Apple Watch while the temperature
warning screen is displayed. If Apple Watch can’t regulate its internal
temperature, it goes into Power Reserve or a deep sleep mode until it cools.
Move Apple Watch to a cooler location out of direct sunlight and wait a few
minutes before trying to use Apple Watch again. For more information, see the
Apple Support article .
Magnets Keep key cards and credit cards away from Apple Watch, the bands,
the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable, and the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging
Dock.
Band care information for Apple Watch
Many third parties make accessory bands for Apple Watch. Such bands may not
fit properly; may interfere with the Apple Watch Wrist Detect feature; may
interfere with Compass on Apple Watch Series 5; may contain materials that
cause skin sensitivities or other health concerns; and may even damage Apple
Watch. For best results, use only Apple branded or Apple authorized bands.
How to clean Apple-branded bands: Remove the band from Apple Watch before
cleaning. See .
Note: This cleaning information applies to Apple-branded bands only. For
all other bands, follow the care information provided with the band.
