Is my Kardena smartwatch waterproof?

Whether and to what extent your Kardena smartwatch is protected against water depends on the respective model and its protection class.

Please therefore always refer to the technical specifications for your specific smartwatch model.

Waterproof does not automatically mean suitable for every use

Information on water resistance refers to specific test conditions.
Actual exposure in everyday use may differ.

⚠️ Important:
A stated water resistance rating does not automatically mean that the smartwatch is suitable for showering, swimming, diving, saunas or water sports.

Particular types of exposure

Besides water, there are other factors that can put strain on the smartwatch and its seals.

These include, for example:

• hot water
• steam
• soap
• shampoo
• shower gel
• salt water
• chlorinated water
• high water pressure

After contact with water

If your model is suitable for contact with water:

1. Dry the smartwatch thoroughly afterwards.
2. Pay particular attention to the charging contacts.
3. Do not charge the smartwatch until the contacts are completely dry.

⛔ Never charge your smartwatch whilst it is wet:
