Pair your ANT+ Heart Rate Monitor chest belt
Leikr is compatible with ANT+ accessories. To connect your Leikr for the first time to a compatible ANT+ heart
rate monitor: wear your heart rate motor on your chest and bring your Leikr in its proximity. On the watch, go to
Menu -> Settings -> Accessories ->Heart rate monitors->Add new, to start the scanning. A progress bar will
appear. After the first time pairing, you can reconnect the heart rate monitor by pressing simultaneously the two
keys on your Leikr located on the side of the Leikr logo (Upper right Key 2 and lower right Key 3). If the scanning
does not detect your heart rate, try bringing the watch closer to your chest. If you can still not pair your
accessory, replace the accessory battery.
Pair your ANT+ Foot Pod
Leikr is compatible with ANT+ accessories. To connect your Leikr for the first time to a compatible ANT+ foot
pod: wear your foot pod on your shoe and bring your Leikr on your wrist. On the watch, go to Menu -> Settings -
> Accessories ->Foot pods ->Add new, to start the scanning. A progress bar will appear. After the first time
pairing, you can reconnect to the Foot pod by pressing simultaneously the two keys on your Leikr located on

Calibrate your ANT+ Foot Pod
On the watch, go to Menu -> Settings -> Accessories ->Foot pods and select the Foot pod you have already paired
with the watch. Press the upper right Key (2) to start the calibration process. Keep the Foot pod in motion till the
calibration screen appears. Press the upper right Key (2) to start the calibration process and start running for a
distance you know. We recommend covering a distance between a 100 and 400 meters; running a loop on a
running track is the optimal set up. Adjust the distance reported by the foot pod to match the actual distance
covered (use the lower left key (3) to toggle through the digits and the upper and lower right keys (2 and 3) to
change the values, remember to save the adjusted distance).
Calibration using the GPS: it is possible to use the GPS to help you calibrating the Foot pod, in case you are not
able to run a distance you know. However the calibration will be less accurate and heavily dependent on the
satellite conditions. Press the upper right Key (2) to start the calibration and start running in a straight line for a
distance that should be not less than 100 meters and possibly above 400 meters.
Adjust the distance reported by the foot pod to match the distance indicated by the GPS (use the lower left key
(3) to toggle through the digits and the upper and lower right keys (2 and 3) to change the values, remember to

8
save the adjusted distance). To use the reported GPS line of sight distance it is very important that you run in
straight line and with a high number of Satellites locked.
