GETTING STARTEd
ACTIVATE wATCH (FIRST TIME USE ONLY)
Press and hold any key until the screen is activated.
SET TIME AND USER DATA
To effectively use the watch for calculating calories burned (based on the user’s age,
weight, heart rate reading and exercise time), you are advised to set the time and your
personal data in Set Up Mode. Refer to “Time Setting Mode” and “User Data Setting
Mode” in Set Up Mode.

HEART RATE MEASUREMENT
You can measure your heart rate anytime (except in setting sub-modes).
1. Wear the watch on your wrist and place fingertips (suggest to use index finger and
middle finger) on both metallic plates to enter Heart Rate Mode. A beep tone will be
heard, “HR” banner is displayed and will flash to indicate the watch is detecting
heart rate reading. It will take between 6-10 seconds to detect a heart rate reading.
2. If a valid heart rate reading is detected, the screen below will be displayed. Remove
your fingers.
3. To exit Heart Rate Mode, remove your fingers for 3 seconds or press any key.
TIPS:
For an accurate heart rate reading, make sure:
•
•
you are not currently running, swimming or doing excercise

PHYSICAL CONdITION ANd WORKOUT
To help achieve maximum health benefits from your workout program, it is important
to know your:
•
•
•
Maximum heart rate (MHR)
Upper heart rate limit
Lower heart rate limit
MHR is expressed in beats per minute. You can get your MHR from an MHR test, or
you can estimate it by using the following formula:
220 - age = MHR
TRAINING zONES
There are several training zones that are relevant to a fitness program. The most
popular zone range is from 50% to 80% of your maximum heart rate. This is where you
achieve cardiovascular benefits, burn fat, and become fitter. When programming your
watch, the lower percentage of the zone you choose becomes your lower heart rate
limit and the higher percentage becomes the upper heart rate limit.

PHYSICAL CONdITION ANd WORKOUT
There are three training zones, as described below:
TRAINING zONE
MHR%
DESCRIPTION
This is the lowest training intensity level. It
is good for beginners and those who want to
strengthen their cardiovascular systems.
Health Maintenance
65-78%
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.
Aerobic Exercise
65-85%
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.
Anaerobic Exercise
The upper and lower heart rate limits are calculated by multiplying your MHR by the
percentages of the selected training zone.
For example:
A 40-year-old training for basic health maintenance:
•
•
His Upper Heart Rate Limit [220 - 40(age)] × 78%
His Lower Heart Rate Limit [220 - 40(age)] × 65%
IMPORTANT:
Always warm up before exercise and select the training zone that best suits your
physique. Exercise regularly, 20 to 30 minutes per session, three to four times a week
for a healthier cardiovascular system.
CAUTION:
Determining your individual training zone is a critical step in the process towards an
efficient and safe training program. Please consult your doctor or health professional to
help you determine exercise frequency and duration appropriate for your age, condition
and specific goals.
