INTRODUCTION

S.S. Black versionS.S. Silver version
Foot Pod Heart rate chest belt

1.2 Heart rate chest belt
It is used to detect your heart beat via 2 side conductive straps. As the heart beat signal is very
weak, well positioning must be taken & the elastic belt should be fastened firmly. Wear the
HR chest belt to the chest area with less hair.
In dry climate, a few drops of water wetting on both conductive straps will ensure the best
skin contact.
In general, HR chest belt is not designed for swimming usage because salt water may interfere
with the very weak heart beat signal.
For detail operation of the HR monitor device, please refer to your HR instruction manual.
1.1 Features
- Synchronized digital & analogue time, alarm, chrono & timer
- Altitude measurement, Temperature measurement
- Heart Rate Monitor, Speed and Distance Monitor
- Repeatable Interval Training for warm up, recovery and cool down cycle
- 2.4GHz coded wireless communication to minimize any interference in environment when
working with heart rate chest belt & foot pod
- 99 Lap count for chronograph & 30 lap count for sport exercise

1.3 Foot Pod
Foot pod is usually equipped with an acceleration sensor which is to
sense the initial motion to determine the distances & speed.
Positioning the foot pod correctly is important to ensure the
accuracy. Same as heart rate chest belt, foot pod is also required to
have pairing with Marathon first before use.
For detail operation of the foot pod, please refer to your foot
pod instruction manual.
- Press S1 & S3 simultaneously and hold for a while, the Marathon will then wake up and
ready to use.
Please go to section 4 for setting TIME OF DAY.
- User is required to input his/her personal information such as weight, gender, birth date in
