Introduzzjoni
This manual provides essential information for the proper use, care, and maintenance of your Fossil ME3028 Grant Automatic Self-Wind Leather Watch. This timepiece features an automatic movement, meaning it is powered by the motion of your wrist and does not require a battery. Please read these instructions carefully to ensure optimal performance and longevity of your watch.
Setup
Stralċ Inizjali
Upon receiving your watch, or if it has stopped due to inactivity, it will require an initial manual winding. To do this, ensure the crown is in position 1 (fully pushed in). Rotate the crown clockwise approximately 20-30 times. This will build up a power reserve to start the watch and allow the automatic winding mechanism to take over with regular wear.
L-issettjar tal-Ħin
- Iġbed il-kuruna 'l barra għall-pożizzjoni 3 (l-aktar pożizzjoni 'l barra).
- Dawwar il-kuruna lejn l-arloġġ jew kontra l-arloġġ biex tissettja l-lanċetti tas-siegħa u tal-minuti għall-ħin korrett.
- Once the time is set, push the crown back into position 1 (fully pushed in) to secure the setting and ensure water resistance.

It-Tħaddim tal-Arloġġ Awtomatiku Tiegħek
Moviment Awtomatiku
Your Fossil ME3028 watch is equipped with an automatic self-winding movement. This mechanism harnesses the natural motion of your wrist to wind the mainspring, providing power to the watch. When worn regularly (typically 8-10 hours a day), the watch should maintain its power reserve. If the watch is not worn for an extended period, it may stop and will require manual winding as described in the 'Setup' section.
Reżistenza għall-Ilma
This watch is water resistant to 50 meters (5 ATM / 5 bar). This rating means the watch is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming and showering. It is not suitable for diving, snorkeling, or high-impact water sports. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water. Avoid operating the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged.

Manutenzjoni u Kura
Tindif
To clean your watch, gently wipe the case and crystal with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. For the leather strap, avoid excessive moisture. If it gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not use chemical cleaners or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish or strap.
Ħażna
When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for an extended period, consider a watch winder to keep the automatic movement running and lubricated, or manually wind it periodically.
Avoiding Magnetic Fields
Automatic watches can be affected by strong magnetic fields, which may cause them to run inaccurately or stop. Keep your watch away from strong magnets found in speakers, refrigerators, mobile phones, and other electronic devices.
