DISCLAIMER
THE MATERIAL IN THE INSTRUCTION GUIDE & MIOSENSE BOOKLET IS FOR INFORMATION
PURPOSES ONLY. THE MIO WATCH DESCRIBED IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT PRIOR
NOTICE, DUE TO THE MANUFACTURERS CONTINUOUS DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM. THE
MIO WATCH, INSTRUCTION GUIDE & MIOSENSE BOOKLET ARE INTENDED TO SUPPORT A
SENSIBLE APPROACH TO HEALTH & FITNESS. THEY ARE NOT INTENDED TO REPLACE PRO
FESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE RELATED TO DIET, EXERCISE OR WEIGHT LOSS. PHYSICAL
ENTERPRISES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES, DIRECT OR INCIDENTAL, CONSE
QUENTIAL OR SPECIAL, ARISING OUT OF, OR RELATED TO, THE USE OF MIO & ACCOMPANY
ING DOCUMENTS. IF YOU EXPERIENCE SEVERE OR PROLONGED DISCOMFORT OR PAIN
AT ANY TIME, SEE YOUR DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY. THE INFORMATION IN THE INSTRUCTION
GUIDE & MIOSENSE BOOKLET IS INTENDED TO BE USED AS A GENERAL GUIDE ONLY &
MAY NOT BE APPROPRIATE TO SPECIFIC USERS. IN PARTICULAR MAXIMUM HEART RATE.
CONSULT A DOCTOR TO DETERMINE YOUR PERSONAL MAXIMUM HEART RATE. MIO USES
COMPLEX FORMULAE THAT GENERALLY PREDICT THE HR BASED UPON STUDIES OF SUB
JECTS WITH HEALTHY HEARTS. THE PERCENTAGE OF MAXIMUM CALCULATIONS ARE NOT
TO BE RELIED UPON ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE A HISTORY OF HEART DISEASE, STROKE,
HIGH OR LOW BLOOD PRESSURE, DIABETES, ASTHMA OR OTHER CIRCULATORY OR RE
SPIRATORY CONDITIONS. CALORIE TARGET & EXPENDITURE. RELIANCE ON INAPPROPRI
ATE INTAKE & EXPENDITURE TARGETS MAY RESULT IN EXCESSIVE WEIGHT GAIN OR LOSS,
FAINTING, DIETARY DEFICIENCIES OR OTHER ADVERSE MEDICAL CONSEQUENCES. CON
SULT A DOCTOR TO DETERMINE WHAT CALORIC INTAKE & EXPENDITURE TARGETS ARE

RATE, IS NEITHER DESIGNED NOR WARR ANTED FOR MEDICAL USE & SHOULD NOT BE RE
LIED UPON FOR MEDICAL PURPOSES. ALWAYS CONSULT A DOCTOR BEFORE BEGINNING
A NEW EXERCISE REGIME OR DIET PROGRAM OF ANY KIND.
H. PERCENTAGE OF MAX HEART RATE
Percentage of Maximum Heart Rate (MHR) is your current
heart rate divided by your maximum heart rate, and can
be a useful reference to manage how hard you are working
during your exercise.
Maximum Heart Rate is calculated as:•
minus your age ( – your age).
Example of %MHR: Tom is 30 years old.
His Maximum Heart Rate is 190 bpm (220–30=190)
His current heart rate is 133 bpm.
Tom’s %MHR is 70% (133/190=70)
I. HEART RATE TARGET ZONE AND ALERT
The Heart Rate Target Zone feature helps you compare your
acquired heart rate with your targeted heart rate zone.
If your heart rate is within the target zone, the watch will•
beep once and display your heart rate.
If your heart rate is lower than your target zone lower•
limit, the watch will beep twice and your heart rate will be
displayed with an “L” (L = Low).
If your heart rate is higher than your target zone upper•
limit, the watch will beep twice and your heart rate will be
displayed with an “H” (H = High).
Example: Debbie’s target zone is 80 bpm–120 bpm. After 5
minutes of walking, Debbie measures her heart rate. If Deb-
bie’s heart rate is “L 72”, she can decide to pick up her pace
so her next reading falls within her target zone.
Set Heart rate target Zone
By entering your age and gender, the watch will automati-
cally calculate your standard heart rate range.
In Heart Rate Target Zone mode, hold Mode for seconds•

rate becomes, the healthier you become.
