Important notes:
1. Your Pool-Mate has been designed for lap swimming in a pool. It has not
been designed to work in Open Water.
2. The Pool-Mate detects regular stroking patterns that conform to
FrontCrawl, BreastStroke, BackStroke or Butterfly strokes only, the Pool-
Mate must be put into PAUSE mode when doing drill and kick sets.
3. Strokes must only be changed at the end of a lap, not part way through a
lap or inaccurate lap and stroke counts may be recorded.
4. The stroke count displayed is the number of strokes taken by the arm
you wear the Pool-Mate on. Remember when swimming FrontCrawl and
BackStroke this is half the total number of strokes.
5. Like most sports watches, the buttons are not designed to be operated
underwater. You must make sure the Pool-Mate is out of the water before
pressing any buttons.
