1 INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the HB 4M00. We hope that you will
enjoy using the Heart Meter and the benefits it offers. In exercise or sports,
your heart naturally speeds up in pumping b lood to the body in accordance
with the increased energy level. The Heart Meter can calculate this increase
expressed as the number of beats per minute (bpm) to determine a target
heart rate safe for each individual. The HB 4M00 watch supports 5 user
modes:
1. Current time mode
2. Alarm mode
3. Chronograph mode
4. Countdown timer mode
5. Heart rate mode
2 SAFETY NOTES
Using a Heart Monitor is NOT a substitute for professional medical
attention. If you suffer from heart disorder , illness or have recently taken up
fitness training, it is advisable that you seek a doctor or talk to your trainer
and work out a fitness plan that suits you.
The watch should only be used as a guide in maintaining a safe h eart beat
rate for exercises. It should NOT be relied upon as a medical heart rate
monitor. If you are uncertain about how your exercise program will impact
on your heart, please consult a physician.
