Troubleshooting
Armbands are not providing enough buoyancy.
Ensure both chambers of each armband are fully inflated to the correct pressure. Check for any leaks from the safety valves or material.
Armbands feel uncomfortable or cause chafing.
Verify that the correct size has been selected for the wearer's weight. Ensure the armbands are not over-inflated, which can cause them to be too rigid. The flattened interior should sit comfortably against the skin.
Armbands deflate quickly.
Check that the safety valves are properly closed after inflation. Inspect the armbands for any punctures or tears in the material. If damage is found, discontinue use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To set up the Beco Swimming Armbands, ensure they are clean and dry. Each armband has a safety valve. Inflate each chamber separately to the recommended firmness. Do not over-inflate. The armbands should fit snugly but not be uncomfortably tight.
Compatibility: These armbands are designed for children and teenagers within specific weight ranges. Size 00 is for babies up to 15 kg, Size 0 for 15-30 kg, Size 1 for 30-60 kg, and Size 2 for adults over 60 kg. Always choose the size that corresponds to the wearer's weight.
Care: After each use, rinse the armbands with fresh water to remove chlorine or salt. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Store them in a cool, dry place. Periodically check the armbands for any signs of wear or damage, such as small holes or tears.
