3 Remove the watch and disconnect the power adapter after the watch is fully charged and the charging icon displays 100%.

- You are advised to use a Huawei charger or a non-Huawei charger that complies with corresponding regional or national laws and regulations as well as regional and international safety standards to charge your watch. Other chargers and power banks that do not meet corresponding safety standards may cause issues such as slow charging and overheating. Exercise caution when using them. It is recommended that you purchase a Huawei power adapter from an official Huawei sales outlet.

- Keep the charging port dry and clean to prevent short circuits or other risks.

•The charging cradle tends to attract metal objects due to it being magnetic. Therefore, it is necessary to check and clean the charging cradle before use. Do not expose the charging cradle to high temperatures for a long time, as this may cause the charging cradle to demagnetize or cause other exceptions.

Checking the battery level

Method 1: Swipe down from the top of the home screen to check the battery level.

Method 2: Connect your watch to a power supply and check the battery level on the charging screen.

Method 3: View the battery level on a watch face that displays the battery level.

Wearing the watch

Ensure that the rear cover of the watch is clean, dry, and free of foreign objects. Attach the monitoring area of the watch to your wrist and make sure it feels comfortable. Do not attach a protective film to the rear of the watch. The rear cover of the watch has sensors that can identify signals from the human body. If the sensors are blocked, the identification will be inaccurate or fail and the watch won't be able to accurately record the heart rate, , SpO2, and sleep data.

To ensure the accuracy of measurements, avoid wearing the strap more than one finger width away from your wrist bone. Ensure that the strap is worn relatively tightly and ensure it is secure during workouts.
