How do you turn on and off the nike+ chip?

Question

I know there is a small "button" but sometimes it does not turn on when I press it 3 seconds... sometimes is only 1 sec.. is there any official information about this?

Answer 1

Press it once to turn it on, just clicking it no holding required.

To turn it off hold it for 5 seconds at least. Like 5 mississppis or something and it will turn off.

To check if it is on or off shake the sensor and see if your iPod or Sportband detects it.

There is no official information. The download-able guides say one thing and the Nike FAQs and forums say another.

Hello. I am a semi-professional Runner (I didnt make the olympics unfortunatly) and I am trying to help Americans become more fit.

I am currently working on a website on which you can submit your fitness information and I give you a personal Training program. The website is not up and running yet, so I currently am allowing people to email me their information and giving programs out that way. THIS IS FREE.

This is not a scam. I am not asking for any personal information. You dont even have to give me your real name. If you choose to get a personal training program, please email me ([e-mail])

Answer 3

I didn't know you can turn it off

Answer 4

I did not know there was a way to turn it off.  My shoe store told me to remove it from my shoe when not using, and by being idle, it is not on.  It turns on with motion.  

I did not know this originally and am on my second chip already.
