How to set up your Apple Watch serie 4 for swimming poole

I am wandering to show today how to set up your Apple Watch 3rd or 4th generation, for that time when you go to swimming pool.
I am going, when weather allow me, to swim in the sea here at Bournemouth. It is a wonderful beach here and summer time is coming now. I am looking forward for that hot time of the year.
If you are blind, and your watch is operated using Voiceover, then this is the guide for you.
I will have below the article a short podcast episode to show you how to activate/diactivate water lock.
First, I wish to warn you to not get into a swimming pool with Apple Watch if they are older than 3rd generation. They are OK with splash water, when you wash your hands or with heavy rain, but not cope at all with keeping watch under water.
First rule then, is> Double check if your watch model is capable of be taken in swimming pool.
Check your user manual for this.
Second rule is do not jump in any pool before being 100% sure your watch is properly activated with the water protection.
To turn water lock on, follow two steps which takes only few seconds to perform.
1. Triple tap with two fingers in order to disactivate crown navigation. You must hear crown navigation off when the gesture is done properly. Is important to do this because turning water lock off require working with the digital crown.
2. Navigate to control centre and double tap on it. Flick right until hear water lock off. Double tap with one finger to turn it on.
If the water lock is turned on properly no other information will be present on the screen excepting time. The voice will report only the time when you touch the screen.
Note: after a time spent in water the voice can be dimpt because the little speaker is wet. But when you turn water lock off the water will be ejected, and the voice tone will come to normal.
To turn the water lock off just press once on the digital crown, the little round button, and then turn it a bit. A little tone and some vibrations will be generated in order to dry out the speaker.
When the water lock is set off properly, the regular screen will come up like before .
I hafve been many times now to my local swimming pool and used my watch in water, and no issues.
Why should I take the watch with me?
Because you can measure various things during your swimming time, like calories spent, heart bit, workout time, etc.
