IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Congratulations on your purchase of Mio SLICE, the 24/7 activity tracker that measures your Personal Activity
Index (PAI), daily activity, and sleep quality. Mio SLICE uses Bluetooth® Smart (BLE) technology to wirelessly
transmit your data to a smartphone.

TROUBLE WITH PAIRING MIO SLICE TO YOUR PHONE
Try the following tips if you have trouble pairing Mio SLICE to your smartphone:
• Check that you are connecting to the correct SLICE device. Before pairing is complete, SLICE is listed

2. If you have a smaller wrist wear
the SLICE higher on your forearm.

reading.

ALL-DAY MODE
AUTOMATIC HEART RATE SAMPLING
Mio SLICE User Guide 9
Mio SLICE automatically tracks your heart rate, PAI, calories, steps, distance, and sleep data in All-Day Mode.
These values reset to 0 at midnight each day, with the exception of your PAI score, which is based on your
total activity in the last 7 days.
In addition, SLICE will automatically track your heart rate each time you turn on the display or open the
Mio PAI app.
You can switch from Automatic heart rate sampling to Always On (capture heart rate every second) within the
Device Settings in the PAI app. Note that Always On heart rate sampling may significantly increase the
battery consumption.
Mio SLICE monitors your activity level 24/7 to automatically adjust its heart rate sampling rate. When your
heart rate rises, SLICE will increase its sampling rate to ensure all your activity is captured accurately.
SLICE has four heart rate sampling rates:
• Rest: SLICE captures your heart rate every five minutes.
• Low Intensity: SLICE captures your heart rate every minute.
• Moderate to High Intensity: SLICE captures your heart rate every second, continuously
• Sleep: SLICE analyzes your sleep, captures your heart rate every five minutes, and measures your resting
heart rate.
