Magnetic Charging Cable and Magnetic Charging Case Discoloration of the charging surface
of the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable and the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Case
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.
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
support.apple.com/kb/HT6621.
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 Case.
Band care information
Use only Apple branded or Apple authorized bands.
How to clean the bands Remove the band from Apple Watch before cleaning. See Remove,
change, and fasten bands, next.
For the leather portions of the bands, wipe them clean with a nonabrasive, lint-free cloth, lightly
dampened with fresh water (if necessary). After cleaning, let the band air dry thoroughly before
re-attaching to Apple Watch. Don’t store leather bands in direct sunlight, at high temperatures, or
in high humidity. Don’t soak leather bands in water. The leather bands are not water resistant.
For all other bands and clasps, wipe them clean with a nonabrasive, lint-free cloth, lightly
dampened with fresh water (if necessary). Dry the band thoroughly with a nonabrasive, lint-free
cloth before re-attaching to Apple Watch.
