Finger size can vary throughout the day, your fingers may swell in the morning or evening. 

The Circular ring can be worn in a shower, or when swimming. It is not recommended to wear the ring in a Sauna.

Recycling 

Dispose of the ring and internal battery in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Special handling may be required. The charger is an electronic device and local legislation for electronics recycling should be followed.  

Water Resistance
‍
The Circular Ring 2 is waterproof and is IP68 grade. The ring can be immersed in 50 meters of water for a maximum of 30 minutes. It is not recommended for use in salt water.

To remove your ring
‍
In case the ring gets stuck on your finger: 

1. Use cold water and soap and slowly twist the ring to remove it. 
2. Hold your hand up above your heart until the blood pressure lowers and then try to remove your ring. 

Watch out, finger size can vary throughout the day, your fingers may swell in the morning or evening!

Cleaning
‍
In order to clean your ring and sensors, use a soft cloth or hand wash with mild soap and water. It is not recommended to let moisture stagnate between the ring and the finger after wearing the ring if it was in contact with water. Please remove the ring from your finger and dry your finger and the inside of the ring with a cloth before wearing it again.

Scratch resistance
‍
The outer surface of the ring may get scratches against harder metal jewelry or other objects in close contact made of harder materials.

Carrying weight

It is not recommended to wear your ring during activities like weight lifting, CrossFit or carrying weight or heavy items. Damage may occur to the ring.

The magnetic field created by metal detecting gates present at airports or entrances to secure buildings are known to harm electronic equipment, such as laptops, cell phones and the Circular ring. Security wands create the same magnetic pulse and can also damage your devices. Even a single exposure can impact your devices in a way that's not immediately visible.  

‍You must send the Circular Ring with your electronic devices through the x-ray scanner with your carry-on.

Checking the ring battery level when I wear the ring:

‍‍You can check the level of the ring’s battery by logging into your Circular app and looking at the top-right corner of the home page.    

Checking the ring’s battery level when I charge the ring:

If your ring is on the charger and is fully charged, the charger LED will stop pulsing and remain solid.  

Calibration of the battery percentage level: Charge your ring to 100% for at least 45 minutes when you receive it for battery calibration purposes. Without that, the app may show incorrect battery level. 


Important notes:

- If your ring's battery has reached 0% battery, you must reconnect it in the app before it will resume data tracking, even after recharging.

- The ring can charge up to 90% on the charger's battery if not plugged in to maintain both ring and charger battery health. If you want it to go up to 100%, the charger must be plugged in while charging the ring.  

- The battery percentage curve may not be linear.  

‍
How to charge my ring 

To charge your Circular Ring 2, you'll need to use the Circular Portable Wireless Charger included in your packaging, along with the provided USB-C charging cable. 

The charger is designed for a particular ring size and cannot be used to charge other ring sizes. 

Start by plugging the USB-C cable into the port located at the back of the charger. You can connect it to a computer, phone adapter, or wall outlet.  

The charging case contains an internal battery to charge your ring even when unplugged—provided the charger’s battery has remaining power. 

At the back of the charger, you'll find a button and a hole to allow certain sensors to operate. To check the battery level of the charger, press and hold the button for 2 seconds:

⚪ No light = Battery empty
🔴 Red light = less than 30% battery
🟠 Orange light = between 30–70% battery
🟢 Green light = between 70–100% battery 

It takes up to 60 minutes to fully charge your ring when the ring’s battery is empty. Please note that the charger voltage is 5V. 
‍

‍How to Place the Ring Correctly 

‍The Circular Ring 2 will charge wirelessly when correctly placed on the charger and after pressing the back button. Place the ring on the wireless charger correctly: the sensors of the ring must be north as indicated by the mark on the charger's positioning guide or above the number indicating the charger size. If the ring is not aligned correctly, it will not charge.

Important Tips: 

- The ring is not charging automatically, make sure to press the button after placing the ring, as it does not auto-start.
- Always charge at room temperature (0°C–45°C) for safety and performance.
- Avoid using off-brand power adapters, which may cause slow or incomplete charging.
- Avoid charging in your cold car, garage, or a room that is too hot.
- After a firmware update, battery readings in the app may be off—fully charge your ring once again to recalibrate.

Accuracy note: Circular developers compare accuracy against medical grade gold standard device while building each of the tracked metrics. Sleep against PSG, pulse oximeter for SpO2, Holter monitor for heart metrics and foot pods for steps.
‍

Sport sessions

For certain exercises, such as Crossfit, weightlifting or riding a bike, it may be difficult to auto-detect sport sessions. This is because when you’re lifting heavy weights for an extended period of time or gripping something tightly, it’s more difficult for the heart rate sensor to get a clear reading. This is because the sensor is being pushed against your skin which becomes compressed and harder to see through.

It is recommended to turn the flat part of the ring on the top of your finger during an activity as riding a bike or driving a car.

Another factor that can impair signal quality is temperature, as in cold weather blood can retreat from your fingers, which can also make it difficult for the heart rate sensor to get a clear reading.

Heart metrics

Regarding heart metrics, Circular will only report average measurements per minute, so if the maximum Heart Rate is not sustained over a span of a minute or so, the minute-average will be lower than what other trackers can report, as they may report Heart Rate with higher temporal resolution.

There is a trade-off between higher temporal resolution and battery life.

Steps during transportation

The vibrations of your transportation on the road or on the rail line may sometimes transfer to your hand and look like steps to the ring. Especially when your ring-wearing hand is resting on the door, window or the steering wheel.

ECG (Electrocardiogram)

To ensure accurate ECG readings with your Circular Ring 2, it's important to follow a few best practices:

• Movement during the 40-second scan can cause signal noise, so remain still and relaxed. Always use the correct hand position as shown in the app to complete the electrical circuit.
• Make sure your hands are warm, as cold skin may reduce skin conductivity.
• Avoid wet or sweaty skin, and ensure the ring sits snugly on your finger.
• Also, try to stay away from sources of electronic interference during the measurement.
• For best results, take your ECG in an environment within the recommended temperature range of 0°C to 37°C (32°F to 98.6°F).

The Circular Ring 2 includes a single-lead ECG sensor that lets you take spot heart recordings to track heart rhythm and potential irregularities.

To begin, make sure your ring is properly paired and worn snugly. Then, go to My Ring > Wear the ring on my > Left or Right hand in the app to set the correct hand or the signal will be inverted.  

Access a feature that needs the ECG. Place your thumb on the ring’s outer surface. Sit still, relax your arm on your legs, and wait for the 40-second scan to complete without moving at all. This feature is designed for wellness tracking purposes only and is not a medical device or diagnostic tool. For any medical concerns, consult a healthcare professional.

Do not try to open the ring or puncture the ring or its battery. 

Electricity safety 

Like with all rings made of metals, be careful when handling batteries when you are wearing the ring. If the electrodes of a battery are in contact with the ring, the battery may short circuit. 

Children 

Keep the ring away from children. Do not leave the ring exposed to heat, such as in a vehicle under the sun.  

Skin 

If you experience redness or skin irritation on your finger due to the ring or any Circular product, remove it immediately. If symptoms persist longer than 2-3 days of not using your Circular product, please contact a dermatologist. The inside material of the Circular ring is medical grade biocompatible and gold plating on the charging contacts. There is no nickel in contact with your finger.
