5. Maintenance and Care
Battery Information:
The Beghelli BAND PLUS is powered by a CR2032 battery, offering an autonomy of up to 5 years under normal usage conditions. When the battery is low, your paired Beghelli phone may provide an alert. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified technician or by following specific instructions provided by Beghelli to maintain the device's water resistance.
Caution: Do not attempt to replace the battery yourself unless specifically instructed by Beghelli, as this may compromise the device's water resistance and void the warranty.
Water Resistance (IP67):
The device is rated IP67, meaning it is protected from dust ingress and can withstand temporary immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. This makes it suitable for daily activities such as showering or being caught in the rain. However, it is not designed for prolonged submersion or high-pressure water activities like swimming or diving.
- Do not intentionally submerge the device for extended periods.
- Avoid exposing the device to salt water or other liquids besides fresh water.
- If the device gets wet, dry it thoroughly with a soft, clean cloth before charging or attempting to open any compartments.
Cleaning:
Clean the bracelet unit and wristband with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents, as these may damage the device's surface or internal components.
