4.1General Precautions
•Do not operate buttons under water
Although your monitor is water resistant, be sure that you do not operate the buttons under water as pressure can cause them to leak.
•Dry off watch after use
Moisture can affect the Temperature and Heat Index reading. Please dry off your watch after use.
•Dry off transmitter after use
The transmitter will automatically shut itself off once you have removed it from your chest. However, it is important to thoroughly dry it off after every use since moisture on the conductive fabric can cause it to remain on longer.
•Global Reset
If your monitor should ever get stuck or act erratically due to dropping it, static shock or some other unforeseen reason, the Global Reset 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 four buttons together for 3 seconds under any mode (display all LCD). The unit will automatically reset and return to initial setting mode.
Caution: Global Reset will RESET ALL FUNCTIONS BACK TO ORIGINAL FACTORY SETTINGS including your Personal Settings.
•Battery Replacement
