monitor within a foot of the front of the chest belt will allow your
monitor to receive the signal and display your heart rate accurately.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Although your Heart Rate Monitor is water resistant, be sure not to oper-
ate its buttons under water as pressure can cause them to leak.
The transmitter will automatically shut itself off once you have
disconnected it from your chest. However, it is important to
thoroughly dry it off after every use, since moisture on the
electrodes can cause it to remain on longer.
Be sure not to twist or bend the electrode portions of the belt exces-
sively (never bend backwards), especially when storing it. This can
permanently damage their conductivity and cause mechanical dam-
age to the internal circuit.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Should your monitor need battery replacement we recommend that
you take it to a local jewelry store or an authorized Vetta Dealer in
order to guarantee that it will maintain its water resistance.
Improper battery replacement or service will void the warranty.
Repairs should only be performed by a Vetta Service Center.
