Care Guide
- Clean the device regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water. Avoid harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners that may damage the silicone band or display.
- Remove the tracker periodically to allow your skin and the band to dry, especially after workouts or water exposure. This helps prevent skin irritation and maintains band integrity.
- Rinse the vívofit 4 with fresh water after exposure to chlorinated pool water, salt water, or perspiration to prevent residue buildup.
- Avoid exposing the device to extreme temperatures, direct heat sources, or prolonged sunlight when not in use, as this may affect battery performance and band durability.
- Store the tracker in a cool, dry place when not worn for extended periods. Ensure the battery is not completely depleted during storage.
- Do not attempt to open the device case or replace the battery yourself. Visit Cassim & Co. or an authorised Garmin service centre for professional battery replacement to maintain water resistance integrity.
- Avoid impact with hard surfaces, sharp objects, or abrasive materials that may scratch the display or damage the band.
- Ensure the band is fastened comfortably but not too tightly. The sensor should maintain contact with your skin for accurate heart rate monitoring, but the band should not restrict circulation.
- Regularly inspect the band for signs of wear, cracking, or deterioration. Replace the band if damage is detected to ensure secure fit and comfort.
