S7 Heart Rate + Calorie Monitor
WARNING: Before starting any exercise program or performing any vigorous physical activity, we strongly
suggest you visit your doctor for a complete physical and to discuss your plans.
CAUTION: Your watch is designed to be water resistant to a static pressure of 5 ATM and can be worn while
showering and light swimming. However, we recommend that extensive use of the unit in the water be
avoided whenever possible. Care should be taken not to press any keys while the unit is submerged as this
can force moisture past the key seals and damage the unit.
CAUTION: Avoid exposing your watch to extreme conditions for a prolonged period of time.
CAUTION: Avoid rough usage or severe impacts to your watch.
DO NOT use hand cream as it will insulate the signal between the skin and sensor contacts.
DO NOT use the fingertips where the skin is dry and thick. For those with extremely dry skin, moisten
fingers and wrist with tap water or a conductive gel.
CLEAN the Back Cover occasionally by using a damp cloth. Then wipe dry to remove any residual grease.
CLEAN your skin and fingers with soap and water for a better signal transmission.
AVOID doing awkward motions during measurement. It may create inaccurate heart rate readings.
