If you would like to clean your band or switch it out with a new one, you can easily remove it from the watch by following the below steps.
To remove the vegan leather band:
- Locate the toggle on the back of the band.
- Slide the toggle towards the center of the band to compress the spring bar.
- Slide out the band, and repeat the process on the other side.
To insert a new vegan leather band:
- Verify you have both pieces of the band.
- Insert one end of the spring bar into the hole and keep it in place.
- Slide the toggle to compress the spring bar and fit it in the opposite hole. Release and verify that the toggle is back to its original position.
- Repeat the process on the other side.
The spring bar tool is a choking hazard, and should be kept out of reach of small children.
It is highly recommended to use only Empatica's official bands with the EmbracePlus device, as biocompatibility tests have only been conducted with our bands. Since EmbracePlus is an FDA-cleared medical device, using non-official bands may affect its performance and safety. If you choose to replace the band with a third-party option, please note that Empatica will not be held responsible for any issues or malfunctions that may occur as a result.
