Silent Mode: Features a vibrate-only or low-volume setting for training in shared spaces or quiet home environments where a loud buzzer is not desired.
Maintenance and Care
Cleaning: Wipe the rubberized exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh solvents or submerging the unit in water, as it is water-resistant but not waterproof.
Battery Health: To ensure longevity, avoid leaving the timer in extreme temperatures (like a hot car) and do not let the battery remain at 0% for extended periods.
Charging Safety: Use the provided USB-C cable. Ensure the charging port is free of chalk dust or sweat before plugging in the cable.
Surface Care: While the magnets are strong, ensure the metal surface is clean and flat to provide the best possible grip and prevent the unit from sliding during heavy vibration.
