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
