How to Remove Sand from a Digital Crown?

Published in Apple Watch Cleaning 2 mins read

To remove sand from a digital crown, follow these steps:

  1. Turn off your Apple Watch and remove it from the charger. This ensures the watch is not accidentally activated during the cleaning process.
  2. Remove any leather bands. Leather bands can absorb water and may be damaged by prolonged exposure to moisture.
  3. Hold the Digital Crown under lightly running, warm, fresh water from a faucet. The warm water will help loosen any sand particles stuck in the crown.
  4. Turn and press the Digital Crown as you run water over it. This will allow water to flow between the crown and the housing, helping to dislodge the sand.
  5. Dry the surface of your watch, the space between the crown, and the case and all surrounding surfaces with a lint-free cloth. It is important to thoroughly dry the watch to prevent any water damage.

Important Note: Avoid using soaps or other cleaning products, as they may damage the watch.

By following these simple steps, you can effectively remove sand from your Digital Crown and ensure the smooth operation of your Apple Watch.
