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 are using Apple Watch, and always use
common sense.
Charging To charge Apple Watch, use only the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable and
included power adapter (and, for Apple Watch Edition, the included Apple Watch Magnetic
Charging Case with cable or the included Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable). You may also
use third-party Lightning cables and 5W power adapters featuring an MFi logo. It’s important
to keep Apple Watch, the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable, and the power adapter in a
well-ventilated area when charging. When charging Apple Watch Edition in the Apple Watch
Magnetic Charging Case, keep the case open. Using a damaged Apple Watch Magnetic Charging
Cable or Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Case, or charging when moisture is present, can cause
re, electric shock, injury, or damage to Apple Watch or other property. Be sure Apple Watch
and the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable or Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Case are
dry before charging. When you use the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable or Apple Watch
Magnetic Charging Case to charge Apple Watch, make sure that the USB plug is fully inserted
into the adapter before you plug the adapter into a power outlet. Avoid charging Apple Watch in
direct sunlight. Don’t wear Apple Watch while it is charging.
Lightning cable and connector Avoid prolonged skin contact with the connector when the
Lightning to USB Cable is plugged in to a power source because it may cause discomfort or
injury. Sleeping or sitting on the Lightning connector should be avoided.
Prolonged heat exposure Apple Watch, the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable, the
Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Case, and the power adapter comply with applicable surface
temperature standards and limits. However, even within these limits, sustained contact with
warm surfaces for long periods of time may cause discomfort or injury. Apple Watch, the
Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable, the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Case, and the power
adapter will become warm when plugged in to a power source. Use common sense to avoid
situations where your skin is in contact with Apple Watch, the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging
Cable, the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Case, or the power adapter for long periods of time
when they’re plugged in. For example, while Apple Watch is charging or while the Apple Watch
Magnetic Charging Cable, the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Case, 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 aects 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, see
www.apple.com/sound.
WARNING: To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for
long periods.
