The indicator light on the charging case displays the status of the SAMSUNG SM-Q507 when it’s in the case, and the status of the case itself when the Ring is not in it. Here are the meanings of the different light patterns:

Wear the SAMSUNG SM-Q507 so that its orientation indicator is facing towards your palm. It is recommended to wear the Ring on a finger where it is not too tight or loose and can fit comfortably.

To avoid scratches, which are not covered by the warranty, always be careful when using the Ring:

• Wear the Ring on your non-dominant hand.

• Do not wear metal rings next to the Ring.

• Remove the Ring from your finger when lifting or handling heavy or hard things.

• Do not wear the Ring when exercising with equipment, especially with free weights like barbells and dumbbells, as it could hurt your hand.

If your SAMSUNG SM-Q507 becomes stuck on your finger, try the following methods to remove it:

• Wet your finger with cold water and soap, and then remove the Ring by turning it around slowly. After removing it, rinse and dry your hand and the Ring thoroughly.

• Immerse your finger in cold water, wait for some time until the swelling goes down, and then remove the Ring from the finger.

• Hold your hand so it is above your heart or rest for some time. When your finger’s circumference returns to normal, remove the Ring from your finger.

• If the methods above do not work, consult a specialist immediately.

In an emergency, if you need to cut the Ring off, cut it along the orientation indicator to avoid damaging its battery.

Your SAMSUNG SM-Q507 is water and dust resistant. To maintain this resistance, follow these guidelines:

• After swimming, and before the pool water or seawater has dried, rinse the device with fresh water and dry it thoroughly with a soft, clean cloth.

• If the device gets wet with liquid other than fresh water (e.g., coffee, soapy water, perfume, sunscreen), rinse it with fresh water and dry it thoroughly with a soft, clean cloth.

• Do not go freediving, scuba diving, or engage in fast-moving water sports like jet skiing while wearing your device.

• Do not expose the device to high-pressure cleaning machines.

• If the device is hit or damaged, its water and dust resistance may be compromised.

• Do not dry your device with a machine that gives off hot air (like a hair dryer) or use it in hot environments like a sauna.

Follow these points to ensure your SAMSUNG SM-Q507 works correctly and maintains its appearance:

• Clean your Ring’s sensor at least once a week. Wipe your Ring with a soft cloth or rinse it with a soap-free detergent and dry it thoroughly.

• Prevent the device from being exposed to dust, sweat, ink, oil, and chemical products such as cosmetics, antibacterial spray, hand cleaner, detergent, and insecticides. If exposed, use a lint-free, soft cloth to clean it.

• Never use ultrasonic waves, soap, cleaning agents, abrasive materials, or compressed air when cleaning your Ring.

• When you remove sunblock, lotion, or oil, use a soap-free detergent, then rinse and dry your Ring thoroughly.

If your SAMSUNG SM-Q507 is not working, try the following solutions:

• The battery may be completely discharged. Charge the battery completely before use.

• If the Ring is too loose, health data may not be measured correctly. Wear the Ring on a finger where it can fit firmly.

• If your Ring is frozen and unresponsive, put it in the charging case and press and hold the charging case’s Multipurpose button for more than 7 seconds to restart it.

• If the above methods do not work, perform a reset. On the connected phone, open the Galaxy Wearable app and tap Reset.

• Take the SAMSUNG SM-Q507 out of the charging case and then put it back in the case, or press and hold the charging case’s Multipurpose button for more than 3 seconds to enter Bluetooth pairing mode.

If the battery does not charge properly with Samsung-approved chargers, try these steps:

• Ensure that the charging contacts of the Ring and the charging case are in contact with each other.

• Ensure that the charger is connected properly to the charging case.

• If the charging contacts are dirty, the battery may not charge properly. Wipe the charging contacts with a dry cloth and try charging the battery again.

• When you expose the SAMSUNG SM-Q507 or its battery to very cold or very hot temperatures, the useful charge may be reduced.

• Battery consumption increases when you use some features.

• The battery is consumable and the useful charge will get shorter over time.

• When you are not using the Ring, store it in a charged charging case. Otherwise, the sensor will continue to work, affecting usage time and battery consumption.

When you use features that require more power or use features on your SAMSUNG SM-Q507 for an extended period, it may feel hot to the touch. This is normal and should not affect the Ring’s lifespan or performance. If the Ring overheats or feels hot for a prolonged period, do not use it for a while. If it continues to overheat, contact a Samsung Service Centre or an authorised service centre.
