Care, cleaning and safety

The pods are small and light, but they hold a lithium battery. A few simple habits keep them working and safe.

Water and sweat

• Pods are not waterproof. The USB-C port, the light window and the reset hole are open.
• Light sweat and drizzle are usually fine. Don't swim, shower or run in heavy rain with them.
• After a session, wipe the pod dry with a soft cloth.
• If water gets inside, don't charge the pod. Let it dry fully at room temperature for a day first.

Cleaning

• Wipe the case with a slightly damp cloth. No solvents or alcohol.
• Straps can be hand-washed in cool water with mild soap. Take the pods off first and let the straps air-dry.

Charging safely

• Don't charge while you wear a pod. Take it off the strap first.
• Don't charge unattended or overnight on a bed or sofa.
• Use a normal USB charger or computer port.

The battery

• Never crush, bend, puncture or heat a pod. A damaged lithium battery can catch fire.
• Don't force the lid closed. If it won't close, find out why first.
• Stop using a pod whose battery swells, gets hot or smells. Put it on a non-flammable surface away from other things and email us.
• Keep pods away from heaters and out of a hot car.

Your skin

• Check your skin after long sessions, especially at the lower back and shins, where pods press during impact.
• Loosen a strap that leaves deep marks. Snug is enough.
• If your skin gets red or itchy, stop wearing the pod there and let it settle.

Storage

Store pods in a dry place at room temperature. For long storage, charge them to about half first.
