Band tips and precautions
- For accurate measurement, you have to wear the Fit so that it fits your wrist. After measuring, loosen the band to allow air to reach your skin. It is recommended to wear the Fit so that it is not too loose or tight and that it feels comfortable in normal circumstances.
- When you wear the Fit for a long time or do a high-intensity exercise while wearing it, skin irritation may occur because of certain factors, such as friction, pressure, or moisture. If you have been wearing your Fit for a long time, remove it from your wrist for a while to keep your skin healthy and allow your wrist to rest.
- Skin irritation may occur because of an allergy, environmental factors, or other factors, or when your skin is exposed to soap or sweat for long periods. In this case, stop using your Fit immediately and wait 2 or 3 days for the symptoms to ease. If the symptoms persist or worsen, call your doctor.
- Make sure your skin is dry before wearing your Fit. If you wear a wet Fit for a long time, your skin may be affected.
