Countdown Mode with Interval Timer
This fitness watch has an interval timer, i.e. it consists of four
timers (1, 2, 3, and 4). You can use one or several timers. If
you use more than one timer, they are combined.
If you use only one timer, all the other timers have to be set to
"0:00".
If you use more than one timer, the countdown starts with
timer #1 and is continued by timers #2, #3, and #4 in sequence.
If the timers are stopped, they can be displayed by pushing the
"SELECT" button at the display.
Keep pressing the „MODE“ key down until accessing the
Countdown Mode, displayed as „TIMER“:
In the countdown mode, the current countdown time is
displayed in the lower display segment. In the upper display
segment, the set countdown time is displayed.

Pulse Mode
4.8.1
Pulse Measurement
The back cover of the fitness watch case also acts as a contact
area for the pulse measurement
•
Wear the fitness watch on the wrist. The back cover of the
fitness watch must be in contact with the wrist.
•
Press the sensor surface for approx. 5-8 seconds,
whichever mode you are in.
Any mode
Pulse measurement
Pulse display
The pulse display is shown on the display for approx. 5
seconds before the fitness watch returns to the display shown
before the pulse measurement.
% of the maximum pulse
To use the function of the % of the maximum pulse, the birth
year needs to be set (see section 4.3 „Time Mode“).
If the birth year is not set, the fitness watch cannot perform a
user-defined calculation of the maximum pulse. The fitness
watch will otherwise base its calculations on the standard
settings.
The
maximum pulse
is calculated as below:
Example: Age = 50
Maximum pulse = 220 – age
Maximum pulse = 220 – 50 =
170
The
% of the maximum pulse
is calculated as below:
Example: Pulse = 102
% of the maximum pulse = pulse x 100 / maximum pulse
% of the maximum pulse = 102 x 100 / 170 =
60 %
4.8.2
Pulse Alarm
•
If the pulse is within the training area, a short beep
sounds, and
is displayed in the centre around the
„ZONE“.
•
If the pulse is above the set pulse limit, a warning triple
beep sounds and
is displayed in the centre to the right
of „ZONE“.
•
If the pulse is below the set pulse limit, a warning double
beep sound and
is displayed in the centre to the left of
„ZONE“.
To take advantage of the pulse alarm function, the pulse alarm
must be activated (see section 4.4.1 „Setting of Training
Zones“).
NOTE
!
If the pulse measurement does not display a value or if the
fitness watch starts measuring the pulse on its own, although
you have not touched the sensor surface with your fingers,
clean the front and the back of the fitness watch with a damp,
lint-free cloth.
If the word „CLEAN“ is indicated in the upper display
line, the fitness watch has recognized on its own that the
contact surface is contaminated. This information is
indicated alternately with the display in the upper display
line.
Clean the front and the back of the fitness watch with a damp,
lint-free cloth. Thereupon, the pulse measurement should be
working perfectly.
Follow these precautions for the pulse measurement:
•
Do not measure the pulse under water.
•
Always press the sensor surface directly with the index
finger. The finger (not the fingertip) should press flat and
stable and the fitness watch should be tight around the
wrist.
•
If no pulse is displayed, please do not press the sensor
surface tighter but instead start a new pulse measurement
after a short while.
•
Do not use the fingertip when measuring the pulse as the
skin might be dry and thick on this part (horny skin). The
fingertip may also not establish enough contact on the
sensor surface. Make sure that you do not touch the sensor
surface with the fingertip but with the central part of the
distal phalanx of the finger.
•
If your fingers are very cold or poorly supplied with blood
this might also affect the pulse measurement.
•
If you have very dry skin, moist the finger and the skin on
the wrist with some water. The same applies if the
forearms are very hairy.
•
For an improved pulse measurement, cleanse the fingers
and the wrist with soap and water.
•
Use of hand creams can affect the pulse measurement.
•
Clean the back of the fitness watch from time to time with
a few drops of water and wipe it dry with a cloth to
remove any grease
•
Stand still for a moment whilst you are walking or running
to measure the pulse. For safety reasons, please also stop
for a moment to measure the pulse when you are cycling.
•
If you measure the pulse whilst moving, hold the fitness
watch very tight. We recommend placing the index finger
on the sensor surface whilst holding the watch strap of the
fitness watch with the thumb. This enables taking
measurements whilst running or walking.
•
The pulse measurement may not work or not work
correctly if the heart beats are irregular.
Failure to follow these guidelines may hinder pulse
measurement or delay display of a pulse value.
