After all data is entered, press S4 to exit setting mode.
Remarks:
1. If the heart rate zone and the zone alarm are set to “on”, one beep will sound every 5 seconds when the
heart rate is below “Zone Low Limit”, and two beeps will sound when the heart rate is above “Zone High Limit”.
2. If the heart rate zone is set to “off”, there will be no zone alarm and “Time in Zone” will not be shown in the
Stop watch mode.
3. The preset values for “Zone High Limit” and “Zone Low Limit” depend on sex and age according to the following
formula:
Male: High Limit = 220-Age Low Limit = (220-Age)x0.7
Female High Limit = 226-Age Low Limit = (226-Age)x0.7
The user can set his individual limits after entering sex and age.
4. If the unit or the weight is changed, the stop watch will be reset, and all data cleared automatically.
5. The weight can be set from 20 to 299 LB (or KG).
6. The age can be set from 1 to 99.
7. Both “Zone High Limit” and “Zone Low Limit” can be set from 40 to 240 BPM (Beat Per Minute).
8. If there is no button operation for about 3 minutes in setting mode, the watch will return back to Pulse mode
automatically.

-
Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap provided. Put the round fastener at the elastic strap vertically from the

round fastener firmly into the cut-out until it snaps in.
-
Wet the grooved electrode areas of the transmitter with water.

Secure the transmitter on your chest below the chest muscle. The sensor should be placed directly on your

Training tips:
There are 3 training zones:
1.
The Health Zone (
50 to 70% of maximum heart rate)
This zone is for beginners and people who haven’t been practising for a long time. When exercising in the
Health zone the intensity should be low and relaxed.
2.
The Fitness Zone
(70 to 80% of maximum heart rate)
Workout in this zone improves your fitness, when you already have been exercising for a while and feel fit.
If you have regular Zone Two intensity exercise, the heart is made stronger as well as it helps to convert
food into energy.
3.
The High Performance Zone
(80 to 100% of maximum heart rate)
Exercising in this zone is to get your maximum fitness. It is generally only to be recommended for those who
can exercise in the Fitness zone for 30-45 minutes without problems. The intensity should be increased step
by step.
