10.0 Heart Rate Measuring - Precautions & Tips
In exercise or sports, your heart naturally speeds up in pumping
blood to the body in accordance with your increased energy level.
This watch can calculate that increase expressed as the number of
beats per minute (bpm) to determine a safe target heart rate for
each individual.
Precautions and tips
1. A heart rate sensor is located on the back of the watch. The back
sensor must firmly contact with the user’s skin during finger touch
heart rate measurement.
2. DO NOT take heart rate measurement when diving or under
water.
3. DO NOT use hand cream; it will insulate the signal between the
skin and the sensors.
4. Clean fingers with soap and water for better signal transmission.
5. DO NOT use the fingertips where the skin is dry and thick.
6. For those with extremely dry skin, moisten the skin with tap water
or apply a conductive gel may help.
7. Hold the watch firmly when taking finger touch heart rate
measurement in motion.
8. Adjust the Chest Strap with the supplied elastic band until it is
surely held on your chest firmly to avoid loosen it when doing
exercise.
9. During the measurement, avoid any awkward motion. Awkward
motion creates undesired muscle noise; hence an incorrect heart
rate reading may be resulted.

The Heart Rate Mode and Exercise Mode show the
current heart rate in terms of:
Heart Rate (e.g 78) : The number of heart beats per minute
(bpm).
Percentage of Estimated Maximum Heart Rate (e.g 40%):
The percentage of the acquired heart rate with respect to
one’s estimated maximum heart rate.
Percentage of Estimated Maximum Heart Rate
It is a useful figure for analysing the cardio- fitness of a
person.
It can be used to define a heart rate zone for cardio-fitness
training.
Consult your doctor for more information on the
implications of percentage of estimated maximum heart
rate.
10.1 Heart Rate Measuring - EMHR and %EMHR
Percentage of
estimated
maximum heart rate
(%EMHR)
Heart beats
per minute
(Bpm)
Heart Rate Mode

Estimated Maximum Heart Rate (EMHR):
EMHR = 220 - user age.
Example: What is Tom’s EMHR at his age of 27?
EMHR = 220 - 27 = 193.
NOTE: This watch can calculate the EMHR for users
at the age up to 99.
Percentage of Estimated Maximum Heart
Rate (%EMHR):
%EMHR = Acquired heart rate/EMHR X 100%
Example: What is Tom’s %EMHR if he has
acquired a heart rate of 78?
%EMHR = 78/193 X 100% = 40%
NOTE: The user MUST input his/her age and gender into
the watch ahead, otherwise this figure is not correct. Please
refer to chapter 6.0 for the details on age and gender setting.

10.2 Heart Rate Measuring - Heart Rate Zone
What is Heart Rate Zone?
Some particular training/exercise objectives like ‘aerobics’, ‘fat burnt’ or ‘health’ that
require trainees/exercisers maintaining their heart rates (exercise paces) within one
particular heart rate zone during the exercise.
WARNING: Consult a doctor or trainer prior to set the heart rate alert zone for
a serious cardio-fitness training.
How to Select a Zone (for Heart Rate Zone Alert)?
In general, users may get the cardio-fitness training advices from those prestigious
organizations= website, for example:
http://www.heart.org/HEARTORG/Conditions/CongenitalHeartDefects/
CareTreatmentforCongenitalHeartDefects/Congenital-Heart-
Defects-and-PhysicalActivity_UCM_307738_Article.jsp
by American Heart Association.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_rate#Training_zones
by Wikipedia.
In Exercise Mode, there are three pre-defined heart rate zones (“AROB”,
“FAT” and “HLTH”) and one user-defined heart rate zone (“USER”) for user
selection. (Please refer to chapter 12.6 for details)

10.3 Heart Rate Measuring - Heart Rate Zone Alert
About the Heart Rate Alert Function
By presetting an objective heart rate zone, you can activate the heart
rate alert function. This function helps to prevent the user from going
over or under an objective heart rate.
In course of doing exercise or sports: When you take a heart rate
measurement that is out of the preset desirable zone, this watch will
beep. Hence, you could render the appropriate actions such as
slow-down or speed up the exercise.
For example, some training sessions may require you to maintain your
heart rate at a predefined zone (the desirable zone) to achieve training
objectives. This watch can remind you whether your heartbeat is out
of the objective zone all the time.
Upper & Lower Limits and Desirable Heart Rate Zone
The desirable heart rate zone is the realm that defined by the upper
and lower limits. Check the adjacent diagram to see the relationship
between zones and the limits. These limits can be obtained by the
following approaches:
1) Get the limits by consulting a doctor or trainer that the above
zone and below zone limits can be set by you.
2) Calculate the limits by using your age and gender in three
pre-defined exercise objectives)
And this watch provides these functions for you to set the limits.
Please check the coming “12.6 in Exercise Mode” section for more
details on setting the limits.

12.0 Exercise Mode
Exercise Mode Overview
As your heart rate acts in accordance with your energy level (the
amount of burnt calories), you can know how many calories were
burnt during exercise.
And this watch provides an Exercise Mode to calculate the calories
and fat burnt accumulation according to your heart rate measurement
(percentage of an estimated maximum heart rate, which is estimated
by your age).
Note: In order to achieve the more accurate result for the amount of
burnt calories and fat, please keep checking heart rate measurement
during the exercise frequently.
