Avoid long exposure to salt water. Make sure you rinse your bracelet with clear water after spending time swimming in salted water.
Avoid exposing your device to immersion under pressurized water or high-velocity water.
Avoid exposure to any chemical products such as solvents, detergents, mosquito repellent, hand sanitizing gel, perfumes or cosmetics. They may damage the strap or the casing of the bracelet.
