The GBA-950 is water-resistant up to 20 bars (200 meters). This means it is suitable for showering, swimming, and shallow diving. Não pressione os botões enquanto o relógio estiver submerso em água. Evite expor o relógio à água quente ou ao vapor, pois isso pode comprometer as vedações.

Wipe the watch regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt and moisture. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then rinse thoroughly with fresh water and dry completely. Avoid using chemical cleaners or solvents.

3. Substituição da bateria

The watch is powered by a quartz movement, requiring a specific watch battery. When the battery runs low, the display may dim or functions may become erratic. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by an authorized CASIO service center to ensure proper sealing and water resistance.

Solução de problemas

• Bluetooth Synchronization Issues: If the watch fails to sync with your smartphone, ensure Bluetooth is enabled on both devices and the G-SHOCK Connected app is running. Try restarting both the watch (by removing and reinserting the battery, if accessible, or performing a factory reset if available) and your phone. Re-pair the devices if necessary.
• Digital Display Readability: The negative digital display on this model can be challenging to read in certain lighting conditions, particularly indoors. Ensure adequate lighting when attempting to read the digital display. The analog hands and luminous markers are designed for primary time reading.
• Data/hora incorreta: If the time or date is incorrect, attempt to re-sync with the G-SHOCK Connected app. If the issue persists, manually adjust the time and date settings as per the full user manual.
