Care and Maintenance
The transmitter is a high-tech instrument that
should be handled with care. The following
instructions will help you fulfill guarantee
obligations.
Detach the transmitter connector from the
strap after every use. Rinse the strap under
running water. Dry the connector with a soft
towel. Never use alcohol or any abrasive
material (steel wool or cleaning chemicals).
Wash the strap regularly in a washing
machine at 40ºC/104ºF or at least after every
fifth use. This ensures reliable measurement
and maximizes the life span of the transmitter.
Use a washing pouch. Do not soak, spin-dry,
iron, dry clean or bleach the strap. Do not use
detergent with bleach or fabric softener. Never
put the transmitter connector in the washing
machine or drier!
Dry and store the strap and the transmitter
connector separately to maximize the
transmitter battery lifetime. Wash the strap in
a washing machine before long-term storage and
always after use in pool water with high chlorine
content.
