Care Guide
- Clean the watch case and silicone strap regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with fresh water, particularly after exposure to sweat, chlorine, or salt water.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners on any part of the watch, as these may damage the polymer case finish or silicone strap material.
- Ensure the charging contacts on the watch back are kept clean and dry. Wipe them gently with a dry cloth before charging to maintain optimal charging performance.
- Although water-resistant to 5 ATM, avoid pressing buttons underwater and rinse the watch with fresh water after swimming in chlorinated or salt water.
- Remove the watch when applying lotions, perfumes, or insect repellents, as these products may degrade the silicone strap or affect the sensor accuracy.
- Allow the watch and your wrist to dry completely if moisture becomes trapped beneath the watch, as prolonged skin contact with moisture may cause irritation.
- For optimal heart rate monitoring accuracy, wear the watch snugly on your wrist approximately one finger width above your wrist bone, but not so tight as to restrict circulation.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use for extended periods.
- Update your vívoactive 6 software regularly through the Garmin Connect app to ensure access to the latest features, performance improvements, and bug fixes.
- The internal rechargeable battery is not user-replaceable. When battery performance degrades significantly after years of use, contact an authorised Garmin service centre for battery replacement options.
- Protect the AMOLED screen from impacts and scratches by avoiding contact with hard or abrasive surfaces, although the Corning Gorilla Glass 3 lens provides excellent scratch resistance.
- If the quick-release silicone strap shows signs of wear, cracking, or material degradation, replace it promptly with a genuine Garmin replacement strap available through authorised retailers.
