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.
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 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.

Magnets Keep key cards and credit cards away from Apple Watch, the bands and the
charging unit.
Band care information
Use only Apple branded or Apple authorized bands. The band colors may fade over time.
Cleaning and care Clean the band immediately if it comes in contact with anything that may
cause stains or other damage—such as dirt, ink, makeup, sweat, or lotions. Before cleaning the
band, remove it from Apple Watch. Dry the band if it gets wet.
For leather bands, use the included polishing cloth or a damp non-abrasive, lint free cloth with
either a mild household soap or mild leather cleaner on the leather. Test in an inconspicuous
area to check for color change. Air dry the band before wearing it again. Don’t soak leather
bands in water or expose them to direct heat to dry. Don’t store leather bands in direct sunlight,
at high temperatures or in high humidity.) For the metal parts in the leather bands, use the
included polishing cloth or a non-abrasive, lint free cloth with small amount of fresh water or
isopropyl alcohol.
For the Milanese mesh band, use the included polishing cloth or a non-abrasive, lint-free cloth
with small amount of fresh water or isopropyl alcohol. Dry the band with the included polishing
cloth or a damp non-abrasive cloth before wearing it again.
For the Links band, use the included polishing cloth or a non-abrasive, lint-free cloth or, if
necessary, a small amount of fresh water or isopropyl alcohol. Dry the band with the included
polishing cloth or a damp non-abrasive cloth before wearing it again.
For the Sport band, use the included polishing cloth or a non-abrasive, lint-free cloth with small
amount of fresh water or isopropyl alcohol. Dry the band with the included polishing cloth or a
