Proper Wear and Cleaning
Wear your Armband on the back of the upper left arm (the tricep). To work properly,
the Armband logo must face upward towards the shoulder and the silver sensors
on the underside of the Armband will be in contact with your skin.
1. Be sure the upper left arm is clean, dry, and free
of lotion or oil then slide the Armband onto your
left arm.
2. Adjust the strap so that it fits comfortably, and
then secure the Velcro pull-tab. Ensure that the
sensors on the underside of the Armband
maintain continuous contact with your skin and
that the Armband does not slide off your arm.
3. Do not secure the strap too tightly. You should be
able to place two fingers beneath the strap. Once the strap is adjusted to a
comfortable fit, there is no need to readjust the Velcro tab. Simply slide the
Armband on and off your arm by stretching the strap.
