Performing after care
Do not leave any water, sweat, or dirt on the device.
After using the device, use low pressure water from a faucet to wash the contact
points, wipe away most of the water with a towel and so on, and then let it dry
naturally.
Water, sweat, or dirt could cause the device to malfunction.
If the device is placed in the cradle when it is covered in water, sweat, or dirt, the
contact points could corrode and cause a malfunction.
If charging or communicating becomes unstable, clean the contact points on
the device and the cradle with a damp cotton swab.
Do not clean using organic solvents such as benzene, thinner, alcohol, or detergent.
This could cause the product to degrade.

This strap is made from polyurethane and after years of use the color may fade
or it may lose its elasticity.
