Heart rate
Measure and record your heart rate.
The Watch’s heart rate tracker is intended for fitness and informational purposes only
and is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions, or in the
cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease.
For accurate measurements, wear the Watch firmly around your lower arm above the
wrist. Refer to
How to wear the Watch for accurate measurements
for more information.
Be aware of following conditions before measuring your heart rate:
•
Rest for 5 minutes before taking measurements.
•
If the measurement is very different from the expected heart rate, rest for 30 minutes and
then measure it again.
•
During winter or in cold weather, keep yourself warm when measuring your heart rate.
•
Smoking or consuming alcohol before taking measurements may cause your heart rate
to be different from your normal heart rate.
•
Do not talk, yawn, or breathe deeply while taking heart rate measurements. Doing so
may cause your heart rate to be recorded inaccurately.
•
Heart rate measurements may vary depending on the measurement method and the
environment they are taken in.
•
If the sensor is not working, check the Watch’s position on your wrist and make sure
nothing is obstructing the sensor. If the sensor continues to have the same problem, visit
a Samsung Service Centre.
