The Frontier X Plus Device does not require any servicing, testing or calibration. It should be routinely checked for physical damage and routinely cleaned as per 17.3. The device should not be used if it is damaged.
The chest strap is “single use” and is meant to be used by an individual user only. Each strap can be used for a maximum of 30 days.

• Charge your Frontier X Plus in a dry and well- ventilated environment.

• Before charging, make sure the charging port is dry.

• Wipe off any water or sweat stains from the outside of the device and shake the device dry.

• Remove the silicone usb plug and ensure that the inside of the micro-USB port is absolutely dry.

• Failure to do so, might cause issues such as slow charging or overheating.

• The Frontier X Plus should be used with an appropriate charger provided in the box that has a rated output voltage of 5 DC V and a rated output current between 0.5 A to 1A.

• Plug one end of the USB charging cable provided into the wall charger and the other end of the cable into the micro-USB port on the side of the Frontier X Plus device.

• During charging, a solid blue LED will glow on the side of the device. This turns to Green when fully charged.

• Charging the device from 0 to 100% will typically take up to 3 hours, and in certain situations where the battery is fully discharged, expect longer charging times.

.

Attention: Other chargers and power banks that do not meet corresponding safety standards may cause issues such as slow charging and overheating.

With your Frontier X Plus device you are given a silicone plug for the charging port. This plug fits into the charging port so as to protect it and must be used at all times, except when charging the device. Ensuring your charging port is sealed prevents dust, dirt, or sweat from entering the charging port which may affect your charging performance and device health.
