5.1 Introduction:
This heart rate sensor is a high-tech instrument that should be handled with care.
Follow the caring instructions to ensure reliable measurement and to maximize
the life span of the heart rate sensor. It is advisable to use the unit and the chest
strap in conformity with the following instructions:
Connector: Detach the connector from the strap after every use and dry it with a
soft towel. Clean the connector with a mild soap and water solution
when needed. Never use alcohol or any abrasive material such as
steel wool or cleaning chemicals.
Strap: Rinse the strap under running water after every use and hang to dry. Clean
the strap gently with a mild soap and water solution when needed. Do not
use moisturising soaps as they can leave reside on the strap. Do not soak,
iron, dry clean or bleach the strap. Do not stretch the strap or bend the
electrode areas sharply.
Dry and store the strap and the connector separately to maximize the heart rate
sensor battery lifetime. Keep the heart rate sensor in a cool and dry place. Do not
store the heart rate sensor wet in non-breathing material, such as a sports bag,
to prevent snap oxidation. Do not expose the heart rate sensor to direct sunlight
for extended periods.
Remove the battery from the battery case when the unit or the chest strap WILL
NOT be used for a long time.
