 Introduction

The 

Axiom 606

 heart rate monitor calculates and displays 

heart rate information using a radio frequency signal trans-

mitted from the chest transmitter to the watch receiver.
The 

Axiom 606

 provides the feedback you need to monitor 

your training, and the functions you need to increase your fit-

ness and performance.
Combined with an appropriate exercise program, the 

Axiom 

606 

will help you:

• Monitor your training
• Reduce your heart rate recovery time
• Increase your aerobic capacity
• Improve your overall fitness
• Improve your exercise performance
The clear display and simple operation make the Axiom 606 

very user-friendly.

      

WARNING: 

Before you begin any exercise program  

you should consult a physician. If you use a pacemaker or 

other implanted electronic device, consult your physician 

prior to using a heart rate monitor.
