WEARING THE CHEST BELT
You must wear the chest belt to measure your heart rate.
This OUTBREAKER watch is specially designed to
work with the chest belt with which it was sold. It is not
recommended you use any other chest belt with this watch, as
the transmission may not work.
Tips: The transmission from the belt is dependent on good
contact with the skin and proximity to the receiver watch. Make
sure the transmitting section of the belt is against the skin, not
blocked by chest hair, and close enough to the receiver watch
(approximately 30 inches) to send a clear signal. Sweat or gel
can help to improve the signal, and remember it is not
instantaneous. If no signal is received immediately, wait for a
few seconds for the signal to get through.
An old battery may weaken the transmission and
reception power. Replace the battery if the performance is
progressively worse.
Once you have good contact with the chest belt,
will begin
to flash. This means the signal is being sent and your heart rate
will soon appear in place of the large 0. Your heart rate will be
displayed as the larger font in every screen of this Mode, and
can also be displayed in a smaller font, below the line, while in
BIKE Mode. If you remove the chest belt, or the watch is moved
too far away from it, the signal will be broken.
The CARDIO Mode will stop functioning after no signal
is received for 5 or more minutes.
When you are measuring your heart rate, keep the
watch away from signal generating sources, such as TVs, PCs,
and car engines, as these may impair the reading.
TRAINING ZONES
The OUTBREAKER watch is
equipped with a special Training Zone
feature that allows you to pre-select
the optimal heart rate range (50-240
beats per minute) for your activity.
For example, the amount of exertion
required for a stroll in the park is
different from the amount of exertion required for weight lifting
to build muscle mass. With the Training Zone feature, you can
set and then monitor the upper and lower heart rate limits
(Training Zone) that best support your training activity and
goals.

Instructions
1. Wet the conductive pads on the underside
of the chest belt with few drops of water or a
conductive gel to ensure a better, solid con-
tact.
2. Put on the belt, wrapping it around the upper
chest so the heart rate monitor is in the
middle of the chest, tucked snugly under the
pectoral muscles.
3. Adjust the belt for comfort and best contact
with the skin.
