water, including those that may lead to skin irritation such as sweat, salt water, soapy

To help avoid damaging Apple Watch, observe the following:
Donʼt clean Apple Watch while itʼs charging.
Donʼt dry Apple Watch or the bands using any external heat source (for example, a
hair dryer).
Donʼt 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 donʼt join with reasonable ease, they probably donʼt 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.
