Maintenance
Unless a button is pressed, the heart rate monitor watch is splash proof. Avoid
pressing the keys with wet fingers, under water, or in heavy rain, as this may
allow water to gain entry into the electrical circuitry. Clean the watch and chest
belt thoroughly after each training session. Use a soft, slightly moistened cloth.
Never store the products when wet. Wipe watch and chest strap with a moistened
cloth, if necessary. Do not use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents, as these
may cause damage. After cleaning the chest strap must be wiped dry in order to
avoid premature discharging of the battery. Do not bend or stretch the transmitter
part of the chest belt.
