EXERCISE PROFILE

To calculate your minimum and maximum heart rate you

need to set the exercise proﬁle.

Different activities exercise the body in different ways

and help you to achieve a variety of ﬁtness goals. To accommodate this the exercise proﬁle can be set to suit

different exercise activities. For example, if you are running,

your exercise proﬁle settings are likely to differ from those

you would use when undertaking a weight training activity. Also, the time you require to warm-up and complete an

exercise will vary. That is why you can change the warm-up and exercise countdown time to suit you.

To set the exercise proﬁle:

1. Press MODE to navigate to Exercise Proﬁle Mode.

If this screen appears, press SET to navigate to the Exercise

Proﬁle Mode.

2. Press SET to navigate to 1 of the 3 exercise proﬁles.

3. Press and hold SET until the ﬁrst setting ﬂashes.

4. Press ST / SP / + or MEM / LAP / - to change the setting. Hold to speed through the options. Press SET

to conﬁrm the setting and move on to the next one.

5. Repeat step 4 to change other settings for this mode.

The order of the exercise proﬁle settings is:

• Target activity - 0 to 2

• Lower limit heart rate

• Upper limit heart rate

• Heart rate alert - ON / OFF

• Exercise timer - hour

• Exercise timer - minute

• Warm-up timer - set to 5, 10, 15 to activate or 0 mins to deactivate timer

• Rest timer - ON / OFF

NOTE Once you have set your exercise proﬁle your lower and upper heart rate limit will be set automatically. However, you can manually change your upper and lower heart rate limit if the automatic setting does not suit you. If you change the target activity level, your upper / lower and maximum heart rate will automatically be updated.

TARGET ACTIVITY

There are 3 target activity levels:

TARGET ACTIVITY MHR% DESCRIPTION

0 Health

Maintenance

1 Aerobic

Exercise

65-78% This is the lowest

training intensity level. It is good for beginners and those who want to strengthen their cardiovascular systems.

65-85% Increases strength

and endurance. It works within the body’s oxygen intake capability, burns more calories, and can be maintained for a long period of time.

2 Anaerobic

Exercise

78-90% Generates speed

and power. It works at or above the body’s oxygen intake capability, builds muscle,and cannot be maintained for a long period of time.

MAXIMUM / LOWER / UPPER HEART RATE LIMIT

Before you begin any exercise program and to achieve maximum health beneﬁts from your workout, it is important to know your:

• Maximum heart rate (MHR)

• Lower heart rate limit

• Upper heart rate limit

To manually calculate your own heart rate limits, follow the instructions below:

MHR LOWER LIMIT UPPER LIMIT

MHR = 220 - age

MHR x lower target activity %. E.g. Target activity is

0. Lower Limit = MHR x 65%

MHR x upper target activity %. E.g. Target activity is 0. Upper Limit = MHR x 78%

HEART RATE ALERT

You can set the heart rate alert in the exercise proﬁle to the following settings:

ICON DESCRIPTION

Heart rate sound alert is OFF

Heart rate sound alert is ON

• 1 beep means you have gone below your lower zone limit

• 2 beeps means you have gone above your upper zone limit

When the heart rate alert is activated, a ﬂashing down or up arrow will appear on the display to show which heart rate limit you have surpassed.

USER PROFILE

To access the full beneﬁts of the watch, set up your user proﬁle before you exercise. This will automatically generate a ﬁtness index and body mass index (BMI). These calculations along with the calorie and fat % burned will help you track your progress over time.

To set the user proﬁle:

1. Press MODE to navigate to User Proﬁle Mode.

If this screen appears, press SET repeatedly to navigate

to the User Proﬁle Mode.

2. Press and hold SET until the ﬁrst setting ﬂashes.

ABOUT THE FITNESS / BODY MASS INDEX

FITNESS INDEX

Your watch will generate a ﬁtness index based on your aerobic ﬁtness. This index is dependent and limited by the body’s ability to deliver oxygen to the working muscles in training. It is often measured by maximum oxygen uptake (VO2 Max), which is deﬁned as the highest amount of oxygen that can be utilized when exercising at an increasingly demanding level. The lungs, heart, blood, circulatory system, and working muscles are all factors to determine VO2 Max. The unit of VO2 Max is ml/kg min.

The higher the index, the ﬁtter you are. See the tables below for a rough guide to what your ﬁtness index means:

egA

RIAF

EGAREVA

DOOG

2 High - You actively and regularly

participate in heavy physical exercise (such as running, jogging, swimming, cycling, or skipping rope) or engage in vigorous aerobic exercise (such as tennis, basketball or handball).

WEARING THE CHEST BELT AND WATCH

CHEST BELT

The heart rate chest belt is used to count your heartbeat and transmit the data to the watch. To wear the chest belt:

1. Wet the conductive pads on the underside of the chest

belt with a few drops of water or a conductive gel to ensure solid contact.

2. Strap the heart rate chest belt across your chest. To ensure an accurate heart rate signal, adjust the strap until the belt sits snugly below your pectoral muscles.

TIPS

• The position of the chest belt affects its performance. Move the chest belt along the strap so that it falls above

your heart.

• Avoid areas with dense chest hair.

• In dry, cold climates, it may take several minutes for the chest belt to function steadily. This is normal and should improve with several minutes of exercise.

• To maintain the best performance of your chest belt, please handle it with care according to the following:

• Do not wrap the chest belt in a wet towel nor with other wet materials.

• Do not store the chest belt in a hot (about 50°C) and humid (about 90%) environment.

• Do not place or wash the chest belt under running water, instead clean it with a wet cloth.

• Do not place the conductive rubber face down on a metal table or surface.

• Properly dry the chest belt immediately after use.

NOTE If the watch is kept idle without receiving a heart rate signal for 5 minutes, the Heart Rate Mode will quit and return to Clock Mode.

WATCH You can wear the receiver watch on your wrist or strap it to

a bike or exercise machine, as shown below.

TRANSMISSION SIGNAL

The heart rate chest belt and watch have a maximum transmission range of about 62.5 centimetres (25 inches). They are equipped with the latest digital coding system to reduce signal interference from the environment, as well as analog technology. For more accurate readings use the digital transmission signal. You should only switch to the analog transmission signal if the situation in point 2 occurs (see below). Your watch will advise you which system it is using and the signal status by displaying the following icons:

NOTE Whenever the watch is searching for the chest belt signal (manual or automatic search), make sure that the chest belt is no further than 10 cm (4 inches) from the watch.

ICON DESCRIPTION

NOTE To switch from digital to analog or analog to digital system, press the chest belt button for more than 4 seconds and then force a signal search.

IMPORTANT If the heart icon does not appear on the

display or is not ﬂashing because no signal has been found,

force a signal search. See “Signal Search” section on how to do this.

In the event that you experience a weak signal or your signal is disrupted by interference in the environment, follow the instructions below to identify and resolve the situation.

1. The signal is weak - the watch heart rate monitor will only show “0”:

• Shorten the distance between the heart rate chest

belt and watch.

• Re-adjust the position of the heart rate chest

belt.

• Check the conductive pads are moist enough to

ensure solid contact.

Searching for a signal

A signal has been found and the digital system is being used

• Check the batteries. If they are low or exhausted, the transmission range may be shortened.

• Force a signal search (see “Signal Search” section).

2. The gym equipment does not seem to work with your chest belt and the digital icon

• Most gym equipment is compatible with the analog system button for more than 4 seconds to change from digital to analog. Then force a signal search (see “Signal Search” section).

3. Interference from another person’s heart rate monitor

- their heart rate readings appear on your watch, or the heart rate monitor shows “0”:

• Press the chest belt button to get the watch to receive your chest belt signal. Do not press and hold the chest belt button, as it will change the transmission signal from digital to analog.

4. The signal is jammed - the heart rate reading on your watch is ﬂashing:

• There is too much interference in the environment for your heart rate monitor to function. Move to an area where the heart rate reading stops ﬂashing.

. Press and hold the chest belt

is displayed:

WARNING Signal interference in the environment can be caused by electromagnetic disturbances. These may occur near high voltage power lines, trafﬁc lights, overhead lines of electric railways, electric bus lines or trams, televisions, car motors, bike computers, some motor driven exercise equipment, cellular phones or when you walk through electric security gates. Under interference, the heart rate reading may become unstable and inaccurate.

SIGNAL SEARCH

To force a signal search:

1. Press MODE to navigate to the SMART TRAINING

PROGRAM or Stopwatch Mode.

2. Press and hold MODE for 2 seconds. The signal-

searching icon with the outside ﬂashing will appear to conﬁrm a signal search is taking place. Whenever the watch is searching for the chest belt signal make sure that the chest belt is no further than 10 cm (4 inches) from the watch.

The signal search will take approximately 10 seconds. If after 10 seconds the heart icon is not ﬂashing, then your signal search has been unsuccessful and you need to force another signal search.

See the table in the “Transmission Signal” section for more signal status information.

ABOUT THE SMART TRAINING PROGRAM

The SMART TRAINING PROGRAM enables you to complete exercise cycles effectively. It will guide you through from a 5-minute warm up (default setting), to the end of your exercise program. In addition to monitoring your heart rate

and alerting you whenever you fall out of the range for the selected training zone, the Program allows you to check the calories consumed and the percentage of fat burned.

TRAINING INFORMATION

HOW THE HEART RATE MONITOR HELPS YOU

A heart rate monitor is the most important tool in cardiovascular health and an ideal training partner. It enables you to see and monitor results. This helps you assess your past performance, maximise your work out and adapt your future exercise program to achieve your desired goals in a safer and more effective way.

When you exercise, the chest belt picks up your heartbeat and sends it to the watch. Now you can view your heart rate and start monitoring your performance based on your heart rate readings. As you get ﬁtter, your heart will need to do less work and the speed of your heart rate will decrease. The reason for this is as follows:

• Your heart pumps blood to your lungs to obtain oxygen. Then, the oxygen rich blood will travel to your muscles. The oxygen is used as fuel and the blood leaves the muscles and returns to the lungs to begin the process again. As you get ﬁt, your heart is able to pump more blood with every beat. As a result, your heart doesn’t have to beat as often to get the necessary oxygen to your muscles.

TRAINING TIPS

To gain the maximum beneﬁt from your training program, and to ensure that you exercise safely, please observe the following guidelines:

• Start with a well-deﬁned training goal, such as to lose weight, keep ﬁt, improve health or compete in a sporting event.

• Select a training activity you enjoy, and vary your training activities to exercise different muscle groups.
