CHANGING BATTERIES IN THE WATCH
Pulseware heart rate monitors use a common CR2032 3v Lithium
battery in both the watch and heart rate transmitter. These batteries
are commonly available at camera, bicycle, electronics and drug
stores. Normal battery life for the watch is approximately 1 yr.
NOTE: Heavy use of the Backlight system may significantly
reduce battery life.
A blank display or inaccurate heart rate readings are
indications that the battery is getting weak and should
be replaced.
1. Using a coin that closely fits the slot in the battery
door located on the back of the watch, turn the
battery door counter clockwise until the door
comes free of the watch.
2. Take care not to damage the O-ring seal for the
battery compartment and carefully remove the
old battery.
3. Place a fresh battery in the battery compartment
with the positive (+) side facing up.
4. With the O-ring in the proper position, place the battery door over
the opening and tighten it down by using a coin and turning in a
clockwise direction.
5. If the O-ring has been damaged, replace it before reinstalling
the battery door. Most jewelers and watch shops should have
replacement O-ring seals.
NOTE: Extreme care should be taken when replacing the
battery to ensure the unit remains fully water resistant. Failure
to properly replace the battery and correctly seal the unit may
cause the unit to become damaged and may void the warranty.
Lithium batteries of the type used in this watch are extremely
sensitive to improper storage. It is our experience that many of the
batteries being sold as new have been stored improperly and are
already dead or nearly dead when purchased. If you replace the
battery in your watch and it does not become functional, do not
assume there is something wrong with the watch. Try another battery
and see if that solves things, most of the time it will.
