Short answer
Glorify Ring can be worn while washing your hands or in the rain, but it should not be worn while swimming, diving, or showering.
Before you begin
- Know the difference between brief everyday water exposure and extended water exposure.
- Remove the ring before showering, swimming, diving, using hot tubs, or using soaps and detergents.
- Dry the ring after rain or hand washing before placing it back in the charging case.
What to do
- Wear the ring for brief everyday exposure such as hand washing or rain.
- Remove the ring before showering, swimming, diving, hot tubs, or water sports.
- Avoid soaps, detergents, seawater, hot water, steam, and high-pressure water.
- Dry the ring with a soft cloth after water exposure.
- Do not place a wet ring into the charging case.
What to expect
Brief contact from hand washing or rain should not require special action beyond drying the ring. Extended water exposure, hot water, soaps, detergents, seawater, and high-pressure water can affect the lifespan of wearable electronics and should be avoided.
Important notes
- Hand washing and rain are different from swimming, diving, showering, hot water, soap, detergents, seawater, and high-pressure water.
- Dry the ring before charging it or putting it away.
- Water resistance can be affected by wear, damage, temperature, and chemical exposure over time.
- Avoid hot water, steam, soaps, detergents, seawater, and high-pressure water because they can affect the lifespan of wearable electronics.
