Is the armband waterproof?

Yes, the armband is completely waterproof. It's suitable for showering, bathing and swimming. However, if the sensor is exposed to saltwater, it's important to clean the charging pins to prevent saltwater buildup.

How do I clean the armband?

You can wash the armband strap in a washing machine or rinse it in lukewarm water. When using a machine machine, ensure that it's set to a maximum of 40°C / 104°F, with a reduced spin speed. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Remember to detach the sensor from the armband before washing.

How do I adjust the armband strap?

The fabric armband strap is elastic and fully adjustable. To adjust the armband, simply slide the metal buckle up or down the strap.

It's not necessary to remove the strap from the sensor housing, however if you have done this, here are the steps to rethread it.


Step 1. Pass the band through one side of the plastic sensor holder

Step 2. Pass the velcro strap back through the metal buckle using the bottom hole

Step 3. Return the strap through the top hole so the velcro faces towards you

When you're all done, you should find that the armband looks like this.
