Heart Rate Features
The Venu 3 series watch has a wrist-based heart rate monitor and is also compatible with chest heart rate
monitors (sold separately). You can view heart rate data on the heart rate glance. If both wrist-based heart rate
and chest heart rate data are available when you start an activity, your watch uses the chest heart rate data.
