Getting Pulse Oximeter Readings
You can manually begin a pulse oximeter reading
by viewing the pulse oximeter widget. The widget
displays your most recent blood oxygen saturation
percentage, a graph of your hourly average readings
for the last 24 hours, and a graph of your elevation for
the last 24 hours.
NOTE:
The first time you view the pulse oximeter
widget, the device must acquire satellite signals to
determine your elevation. You should go outside, and
wait while the device locates satellites.
1
While you are sitting or inactive, press
UP
or
DOWN
to view the pulse oximeter widget.

Remain motionless for up to 30 seconds.
NOTE:
If you are too active for the watch to get
a pulse oximeter reading, a message appears
instead of a percentage. You can check again after
several minutes of inactivity. For best results, hold
the arm wearing the device at heart level while the
device reads your blood oxygen saturation.

About Heart Rate Zones
Many athletes use heart rate zones to measure and
increase their cardiovascular strength and improve
their level of fitness. A heart rate zone is a set range of
heartbeats per minute. The five commonly accepted
heart rate zones are numbered from 1 to 5 according
to increasing intensity. Generally, heart rate zones are
calculated based on percentages of your maximum
heart rate.
Setting Your Heart Rate Zones
The device uses your user profile information from
the initial setup to determine your default heart rate
zones. You can set separate heart rate zones for sport
profiles, such as running, cycling, and swimming. For
