WEARING YOUR MIO ALPHA
To accurately monitor your heart rate during your workout:
•Fasten Mio ALPHA snugly on your lower forearm, about 1-3 inches (3-8 cm) above your wrist bone. The optical sensor on the back should make good contact with your skin.
•If you have a smaller wrist, wear the Mio ALPHA higher on your forearm.
Important: For optimal heart rate accuracy, especially if you often have cold hands or poor circulation, we strongly recommend doing a warm up exercise for a few minutes before you begin to track your heart rate.
GETTING YOUR HEART RATE
To turn on heart rate monitoring, press and hold B until you hear a beep and the display shows FIND. Hold your arm still until your heart rate is found. Heart rate data is not recorded until you starti the timer.
If you see — — displayed, Mio ALPHA was unable to find your heart rate. Please refer to

QUIT.
