Before you begin
Before beginning an exercise session, check that the phone has sufficient
power. If the charge remaining is less than 15%, recharge the phone.
(Consult the instruction manual that accompanied the phone for advice on
checking the power and recharging the phone's battery.)
Task 1: Prepare the probe
1. Wash the probe thoroughly. See "Cleaning the probe" on page 65 for
advice.
2. Inspect the probe thoroughly. If it is damaged-for example, the outer
covering has become cracked or torn-do not use it and ignore the rest of
this procedure. If the PeriCoach is still within its warranty period, contact
the manufacturer (see "Getting help" on page 66).
3. Wash your hands thoroughly, preferably with anti-bacterial soap.
4. With washed and dried hands, turn on the probe.
You do this by removing the probe from the charging case. A green LED
should come on in the base of the probe as shown in Figure 6 on page 22.
If the green light does not come on, give the sensor a quick shake with
your hand. The light should come on.
Task 2: Prepare the app
1. Make sure the probe is still on. Turn it on if it has gone off. (See
instructions above.)
2. Place the phone and probe within 2 metres of each other.
3. Open the PeriCoach app on your phone.
4. If the app does not automatically connect to the probe, tap Connect to
Device.
5. If Bluetooth is not currently activated on your phone, a message asking
to turn on appears. Tap Yes to turn on Bluetooth. Bluetooth must be on
for the probe to be able to communicate with the phone.
