Triax c6 Operation manual

Information is Power
This heart rate monitor was developed in association with
Jay Blahnik, an internationally recognized fitness instructor,
author and industry expert.
One insight that Jay has gained from his years of working
with heart rate monitors is that too often people try to
"shoot for a num er" they have seen on a heart rate chart
or have calculated using a heart rate equation.
While these num ers might e just right for a few people,
they are often inaccurate ecause they don't take into
account how you or your ody "feels".
Jay's input prompted NIKE to design the first monitor
that actually helps you make a connection etween how
you feel and how hard your heart is eating. Instead of just
"shooting for a num er," you will e a le to find the num ers
that are just right for you.
Used properly, the c6 watch can help you exercise
more efficiently, avoid over-training and measure
your progress and improvement.
Heart Rate Transmitter
Your Heart Rate Transmitter
reads the electrical impulses
of your heart and transmits
data to your watch. It is one
of the most accurate ways
to measure heart rate.
The Transmitter will function
automatically if it is worn
correctly within a meter of
the watch. The Transmitter
is ergonomically designed
to fit comforta ly during
all types of exercise.
ATTENTION: Anyone eginning an exercise
regimen for the first time (especially users
of pacemakers or other implanted devices)
should consult their physician or health
professional efore using the heart
rate monitor.

Completing the Heart Rate Zone Finder
A heart rate monitor is a great way to measure your exercise intensity in order to get results from your workout.
It is very important to learn which num ers are right for you.
The c6 watch is the first monitor with a Heart Rate Zone Finder. It helps you esta lish which num ers are easy (Z1),
medium (Z2), hard (Z3) and very hard (Z4) for you. It is a simple exercise test that takes just 15 minutes,
ut will ena le you to maximize the enefits of this watch, and learn more a out your fitness.
Simply workout at the effort level displayed on the watch for the specified period of time. The c6 then calculates
your personal zones ased upon the effort levels you achieved during the test. Rather than determining your zones
or num ers through an ar itrary heart rate chart or equation, the Zone Finder creates custom zones just for you.
As your fitness improves, you will find that
heart rates (or heart rate zones) that used to e
challenging will egin to feel easier, or you will
e a le to maintain each zone for a longer
period of time than efore.
We recommend you take the Zone Finder test
approximately every 30 days to check your
progress and improvement. Your watch will
even send you a reminder every 30 days
so you don't forget.
Follow steps through to complete
the Heart Rate Zone Finder.
