Heart Rate Features

• This Watch includes a Chest Strap with connector, thus the Watch can provide a
continuous supply of heart rate data like current heart rate, average heart rate and
maximum heart rate to user for guiding them to achieve their fitness goal.

Precautions / Tips

• The silicon rubber section on the Chest Strap acts as the contacts. They must be
firmly contacted with the user’s skin during measurement.

• DO NOT take heart rate measurement when diving or under water.

• Clean the contacts occasionally by applying a few drops of water, and wipe it dry with
a paper towel to remove any residual grease.

• DO NOT use hand cream; it will insulate the signal between the skin and the contacts.

• Clean your skin with soap and water for better signal transmission.

• For those with extremely dry skin, apply some conductive gel or water may help.

• Adjust the Chest Strap with the buckles until it holds on your chest firmly to avoid it
loosen when doing exercise.

• Avoid doing any awkward motion during measurment, otherwise error may be
resulted.
