Care and Maintenance

with care. The suggestions below will help you

Clean G5 with a mild soap and water
solution. Dry it with a towel. Never use
alcohol or abrasive materials (steel wool or
cleaning chemicals). Never put G5 in a
washing machine or drier.
•
Due to the textile nature of the armband, its

Follow the instructions carefully to maximize
the life time. Wash the armband only when
necessary. Hand wash only. Do not use
detergent with bleach or fabric softener. Do
not dry-clean. Do not spin-dry or iron.

Take G5 out of the armband after use. Keep
G5 and the armband in a cool and dry place.
Do not store wet in non-breathing material,
such as a sports bag. Do not expose to direct
sunlight for extended periods.

metallic materials and it's magnetic field

interference, it is recommended to wear your
compass on one arm and your G5 with the
training computer on the other arm. Do not
place credit cards or other magnetic storage
media near G5, because information stored on
them may be erased.
