You can see this in action when the Watch gets wet, but it\u2019s far more impressive to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/EIEwy8rPik4\">watch in slow motion<\/a>.<\/p>\n<lite-youtube videoid=\"EIEwy8rPik4\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/EIEwy8rPik4\/hqdefault.jpg');\">\n<button type=\"button\" class=\"lty-playbtn\"><br \/>\n<span class=\"lyt-visually-hidden\">Play Video<\/span><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/lite-youtube>\n<p>Most models of Apple Watch have at least an IPX7 water resistance rating, which means they can withstand being submerged in 1 meter of water (just over 3 feet 3 inches) for up to 30 minutes. The Apple Watch Series 2 and newer can withstand a depth of 50 meters.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rinse_Soap_and_Salt_Water_Thoroughly\"><\/span>Rinse Soap and Salt Water Thoroughly<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019ve been wearing your Apple Watch while bathing or swimming in salt water, take care to rinse out the speaker hole thoroughly to prevent residue from building up. Soap and salt can get left behind when the water evaporates, and it\u2019s a lot easier to prevent this build-up than it is to get rid of it at a later date.<\/p>\n<p>You can repeat the water lock process as many times as you need to to keep your speaker hole clean and dry. A good rule of thumb to follow with soap is that if you\u2019re still seeing bubbles when using water lock, you should probably keep rinsing it until only water comes out.\u00a0Consider taking your Apple Watch off when bathing in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Check out our other top tips for making the most of your Apple Watch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n setTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s) } (window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n   fbq('init', '335401813750447');\n   fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
