Moisten the transmitter electrodes

: apply a

small drop of water on each of the two contact

areas (Fig.3).

Fig. 3

If you feel comfortable replacing your own

batteries, be careful to notice how the old
battery comes out and the proper positioning
of the hold-down contacts before removing it.
Also, be careful to line up the o-ring gasket
properly before replacing the battery door
cover. To help insure battery water resistance,
it’s a good idea to smear a small drop of
siliconelubricant spray on the rubber o-ring.

General Precautions

Do not operate buttons under water.

 Although

your monitor is water resistant, be sure that
you do not operate its buttons under water as
pressure can cause them to leak.

Dry off transmitter after use.

 The transmitter

will automatically shut itself off once you have
disconnected it from your chest. However, it is
important to thoroughly dry it off after every
use, since moisture in the electrodes can cause
it to remain on longer.

Electrode precautions.

 Be sure not to excessively

twist or bend the electrode portions of the belt
(never bend backwards), especially when storing
it. This can permanently damage their conductivity
and cause mechanical damage to the internal
circuit.

Globe Reset

. If your monitor should ever get

stuck or act erratically due to dropping it, static
shock or some other unforeseen reason, this
feature will allow you to reset the unit and
return all settings back to their internal defaults.
To perform this function press and hold all
buttons at once. Caution: THIS WILL CLEAR
EVERYTHING! Including all of your personal
settings.
