7.0 About Heart Rate Measurement 
 
 
  
In exercise or sports, your heart naturally speeds up in pumping blood to the body in 
accordance with your increased energy level. This watch can calculate that increase 
expressed as the number of beats per minutes (bpm) to determine a safe target heart rate 
for each individual. 
 
PRECAUTIONS/TIPS 
 
1.  A heart rate sensor is located on the back of the watch.  The back sensor must make 
firm contact with the users skin during measurement. 
 
2. DO NOT take heart rate measurement when diving or under water.\  
 
 
3. Clean the back cover occasionally by applying a  few drops of water; wipe it dry with 
a paper towel, removing any residual grease.  
 
4. DO NOT use hand cream; it will insulate the signal between the skin and the sensors.  
 
 
5. Clean skin and fingers with soap and water for better signal transmission.  
 
6. DO NOT use the fingertips where the skin is dry and thick. For those with extremely 
dry skin, moisten fingers and wrist with tap water or apply a conductive gel.  
 
7. Hold the watch firmly when taking measurement in motion.  
 
8. During the measurement, avoid any awkward motion. Awkward motion creates 
undesired muscle noise; hence an erogenous heart beat reading may result.

seconds).

8.0 Heart Rate Alert Function 
 
 About the Heart Rate Alert Function 
 
•  By presetting a target heart rate range, y ou can activate the heart rate alert function. 
This function helps prevent the user from going over or under a target heart rate. 
 
•   In course of doing exercise or sports:  When the user takes a heart rate measurement 
that is out of the preset desirable range, th is watch will beep twice. Hence, the user 
could render the appropriate actions such  as slow-down or speed up the exercise. 
 
•  For example, some training sessions may require the trainee maintaining his / her 
heartbeat at a predefined range (the desirable range)  to achieve training objective. This 
watch can remind the trainee whether his/her  heartbeat is out of the objective range all 
the time. 
 
Upper & Lower Limits and Desirable Heart Rate Range  
 
•  The desirable heart rate range is the rea lm that defined by the upper and lower limits. 
Check the adjacent diagram to see the  relationship between ranges and the limits.  
 
•  These limits can be obtained by the following: 
1.  Get the limits by consulting a doctor or trainer 
2.   Calculate the limits by using the users age and gender.  
 
• Check section  8.2 (Setting the Heart Rate Alert Mode)  for more detail on setting the 
Limits.
