Use and maintenance

We recommend that you clean the silicone or TPU elastomer strap regularly to prevent sweat residue or other dirt from accumulating on it. You can clean the strap from emulsion, sunscreen and insecticide residues, for example, using a sprayer and a lint-free cloth. Then rinse the strap with water. Allow the strap to dry before use. The body of the watch can be rinsed with water or cleaned with a damp, lint-free cloth.

Garmin watch straps should be loose enough to allow for movement on the wrist. However, wrist heart rate monitors should be worn tighter on the wrist during exercise. Rinse the device thoroughly and allow it to dry after exposure to sweat during exercise or water during swimming or showering. Prolonged exposure to moisture may irritate the skin during use. Also remember to allow the skin to rest occasionally, e.g. by moving the device from one wrist to the other. Avoid the following chemicals to prevent surface changes and skin irritation: insect repellents, moisturisers and emulsions, greases, perfumes, hand lotions, soaps, sunscreens.

Note: If you follow the above tips, using your Garmin device should not cause any problems. However, if your skin becomes red or irritated, stop using the device until your skin heals. Thoroughly clean the device and strap according to the appropriate use and maintenance instructions. If symptoms persist, consult your doctor or dermatologist.
