20 FUNCTION HEART RATE MONITOR WITH NEW EXERCISE TECHNOLOGY
Read Me First
For accurate readings and best performance, please read the following suggestions.
The skin types of people and their heart rate signals vary. You may need to take some time to be familiar
with the Transmitter Strap to achieve stable signals. So please be patient, especially during the cold, dry
winter months.
Dry conductive rubber contact and skin will cause erroneous readings of “0” of heart rate display, so
please moisten the conductive rubber contact for accurate readings.
Use water, ECG gel or other conductive liquids to moisten the conductive rubber contact. DO NOT use
Vaseline or oils which may insulate the Transmitter making it unable to detect the heart rate signals.
Heart rate display may drop to “ 0”or jump to “250” when near high tension power lines and
transformers, or any electromagnetic devices such as television, computer, cell phone, mechanical
watches etc. Execute “MODE CLEAR” to clear all records and leave the area of interference to get
your actual heart rate displayed again.
Dehydration and alcohol consumption can affect the detection and accuracy of the heart rate display. For
accurate readings, do not use the Transmitter and wait until your body is back to normal levels.
Wear the transmitter against your bare skin to ensure best detection. Body hair can affect the detection
and transmission of heart rate. If necessary, trim and shave the hair to keep a smooth transmitter contact.
Conductive rubber contact should be flat on your body when you adjust the chest strap.
For certain individuals, the computer will work better if the transmitter is worn either more to the left side,
a little higher, a little lower or possibly upside down.
Always warm-up before exercise, use Heart Rate Monitor to keep within your target zone to exercise
efficiently and safely, and cool down for a few minutes at a low intensity before stopping.
Do not bend or stretch the transmitter and keep it out of extreme cold and heat.
Clean and dry the transmitter carefully after use, do not store it wet.
WARNING
1. This heart rate monitor is designed to measure and display your heart rate during physical activity when
in a good state of health. It is not a medical device, nor is it intended for medical diagnostic purposes.
2. Please consult a doctor for advice on exercise frequency and duration appropriate for your age, highest
and lowest heart rate limits etc. Please stop exercising if you feel uncomfortable, faint, or dizzy.
3. Do not put on the Heart Rate Transmitter if you are using any device to adjust or aid your heart
rate (i.e. Pace Maker)
4. The transmitter does not work in water. Please do not immerse this device in water. Due to the high
conductivity of water, heart rate measurement is not accurate and cause erratic reading under water.
Swimming pools have a high concentration of chlorine and sea water also is very acidic and conductive.

WATCH BATTER REPLACEMENT
The watch includes one 3V CR2032 lithium battery. When display of weak batter for replacement is on,
replace the battery with a new CR2032 battery or equivalent.
1. Use a screw driver to loose the screws at the back cover, separate the back over apart from the front case.
2. Remove the clear plastic cover carefully.
3. Use a small screw driver to unlock the metal spring and to tilt out the old battery.
4. Slide a new CR2032 battery back to the location.
5. Press the metal spring back to the lock position to secure the new battery.
6. Place the plastic cover back and assemble the back cover on the front case.
7. Tighten the screws and promptly dispose of the ode battery.
Note: 1. Do not loss any O-ring and metal spring.
2. Removing the watch battery will erase all data recorded and reset the watch receiver.
TRANSMITTER BATTERY INSTALLMENT
Slide the CR2032 battery at an angle and make sure during battery installation that the battery is first pressed
against the side contact (positive electrode) and then pressed into the battery compartment.
Place the battery rubber pad (O-ring) and battery cover properly into the case then close the cover,
tightening it with a coin or similar object.
The rubber pad (O-ring) ensures water proof protection of the battery compartment.
IMPORTANT
Model: HM8033

Make sure to close the battery cover very tightly as below illustrated to prevent sweat and moisture
from spoiling the battery composition.
NOTICE
Apply water or conductive gel to moisture the conductive rubbers which both must be in proper contact with
your chest skin to detect heart rate for best performance.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1. The user should not wear the transmitter during swimming.
2. This is not a diving instrument, and therefore buttons should not be operated (put to use) while under
water.
3. Keep the transmitter clean especially the two parts of conductive rubber.
4. Do not store the transmitter in a web environment. It must be stored in a cool dry place. Moisturized
electrodes and activated transmitter will shorten the battery’s life.
5. Do not store the transmitter near high voltage power lines, televisions, cellular phones…etc. to avoid
electromagnetic interference from shortening the life of the battery.
PUTTING ON HEART RATE TRANSMITTER
Please be sure that the LED flashing light indicator above logo.
This is the correct position for the most stable heart rate transmission.
Position the heart rate transmitter and adjust the elastic strap to fit your chest snugly as shown.
Model: HM8033
www.nu-beca.com
To check for proper operation, the symbol on the watch will flash upon receiving a pulse signal. The
watch will then take a few seconds to display the initial current heart rate.
NOTE
1. If you get irregular pulses, please execute “RESET” to clear all records. Hold the S KEY and the M KEY
down simultaneously for 8 seconds.
Keep a distance not over 80 CM (30”) between the watch and Heart Rate Transmitter for good wireless
reception as illustrated.
UNIQUE TRANSMISSION LED INDICATOR
A red transmitter LED will flash indicating the transmitter is in operation. Adjust the transmitter position to
keep the LED indicator flashing consistently for accurate readings.
NOTE: If the watch does not display heart rate readings when the Heart Rate symbol flashes for over two
minutes, please check the watch battery installation and execute a “RESET” to the watch.
FINDING YOUR TARGET HEART ZONE
Training in your Target Heart Zone is important and it is recommended that you consult your personal doctor
or physician. Recent research has indicated that optimal use of fat as energy occurs when your heart beats
per minute (BPM) is between 55% and 65% of your Maximum Pulse Limit (MPL).
Refer to the chart below to find your Target Heart Zone for your age.
1. FAT BURNING ZONE
Your heart rate during exercise should be at 55% to 65% of your Maximum Pulse Limit (MPL) if you are in
god health and either a beginner or intermediate exerciser (one who has done some prior aerobic activity)
Model: HM8033
www.nu-beca.com
2. CARDIOVASCULAR STRENGTH ZONE
Good aerobic condition/advanced exercisers can select a target heart zone at 65% to 85% of their Maximum
Pulse Limit (MPL).

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Please check that the transmitter electrodes are clean of debris.
Do not operate your heart rate monitor near highly electromagnetic fields, such as TV sets, cell phones,
computers, other watch units or other electronic devices that may cause signal interference.
Check the strap unit for a tight fit across the chest area. Loose fit may cause poor signal transfer and
detection.
Keep your transmitter and watch unit within the maximum distance range of 80cm(2 1/2 feet) for strong
signal transfer.
Avoid being near another heart rate transmitter within the maximum distance range of 80cm you’re your
watch unit. The second transmitter may cause inaccurate readings on your watch unit.
If at any time you experience irregular readings and or feel uncomfortable, consult a doctor to determine
your heart condition.
If the unit does not start up or stops during operation please recheck the battery installation and if the
battery needs replacement. (Note: Check the contact plate in the battery case is not beat or damaged.)
Sometimes when irregular data appears,execute "RESET" and try again to get the signal.
GUARANTEE
The following is not covered in the warranty:
▪ Battery
▪ Misuse and abuse to the system
▪ Improper maintenance
▪ Cracked or broken casings
▪ Plastic, rubber or fabric strap damage
