1. GENERAL INFORMATION
Please read and follow this user manual carefully before using your heart rate
monitor.
Area of Application
The heart rate monitor is usable as a wristwatch. In addition to this, it can be used as
a training aid for monitoring and displaying your heart rate. It is designed for private
purposes and is not suitable for commercial purposes. The heart rate monitor is not a
medical device. Please read these operating instructions, in order to familiarise
yourself with all of the options for your heart rate monitor and ensure faultless
function. All data quoted are only nominal values. Subject to technical modifications.
2. SAFETY AND SERVICING
Please read the safety instructions carefully and only use the heart rate monitor as
described in these instructions to avoid accidental injuries or damage. Retain these
instructions for future reference. These instructions should be handed over when
passed on to a new owner.
Important:
Always consult a physician before starting a regular training program.
The heart rate monitor is not a medical device, it is a training tool for monitoring and
displaying your heart rate. Wearers of pacemakers should only use devices for
monitoring heart rate after consulting their doctor.

Note
: This chest strap can contain latex components. In rare cases, allergic reactions
can occur to this substance, in the form of – possibly relatively intensive – skin
irritations and redness. Therefore, if you should even only notice slight redness,
please discontinue using the chest strap immediately. In this case, we recommend
that you see a dermatologist.
Batteries
2.1
Your heart rate monitor runs on a 3 V CR2032 battery.
Below are some directions on the use of batteries:
•
Never expose the batteries to excessive heat such as sunlight, fire or the like -
increased danger of leakage!
•
Never recharge the battery.
•
Do not short-circuit the battery and do not take it apart – explosion hazard!
•
If necessary clean the battery and unit contacts before inserting the battery.
•
Flat batteries should be immediately removed from the device. There is
increased danger of leakage.
•
Remove the battery when the device is not in use for a longer period of time.
•
Caution! There is a risk of explosion, if the battery is not changed correctly. Only
replace the battery with one of the same or similar type.
•
Keep the batteries and heart rate monitor out of reach of children. Batteries can
be swallowed by children. Seek immediate medical attention, if this happens.
•
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and mucous membrane if leakage occurs. Upon
contact with battery acid rinse the affected area with plenty of water and seek
medical help immediately.
Non-compliance with these instructions can lead to damage and under certain
circumstances to explosion of the batteries. Details on how to change the batteries
can be found under Section 5.9 „Battery change“.
Operational Environment Conditions
2.2
The heart rate monitor can be operated continuously at an ambient temperature of 32
°F to 122 °F. The heart rate monitor is protected against shocks, which may occur
during normal wearing on the arm. No evidence of condensation is allowed in a heart
rate monitor as this might trigger a short circuit. The heart rate monitor should
therefore never be exposed to extreme changes in temperature. The unit should
never be placed near very strong magnet fields (e.g. electrical welding equipment,
current transformers) as this could cause variations in the time measurement. Non-
compliance with these directions can result in malfunction or damage of the heart
rate monitor.
Water Resistance
2.3
The heart rate monitor and its chest strap are water-resistant up to 98 feet. In the
table below, you can see the activities and conditions for which the heart rate
monitor is suitable. The details are based on a test of water-resistance according to
DIN 8310.

Make sure that you do not use the keys when the watch is wet. Water can only
penetrate the housing and damage the movement through the keys. Please note
that salt water and thermal water can lead to corrosion of metal parts.
Please note that with extreme temperature differences (e.g. from the sauna into the
pool, from sunbathing into the cold sea), the water-resistance cannot be guaranteed.
Condensation can form as a result of the temperature differences and thereby
damage the movement.
In order to ensure the water-resistance of your heart rate monitor, battery
replacement should be carried out by a watch specialist, in order to avoid damage to
the seal ring and housing.
Disposal
2.4
Dispose of the packaging in the proper manner. Batteries need to be properly
disposed of. For this purpose, shops selling batteries provide special containers for
environmentally-friendly disposal. Furthermore, empty batteries will be taken back at
public waste collection points. Should you wish to dispose of the article, do so in
accordance with the latest provisions. Details are available from your local authority.
Maintenance
2.5
The heart rate monitor and chest strap do not contain and parts that require
maintenance. However, we recommend that you clean the sensor surfaces of the
chest strap after or prior to each use.
Cleaning and Care
2.6
Use only a soft, damp, lint-free cloth to clean the heart rate monitor and the chest
strap. Do not use solvents, abrasive or gaseous cleaning materials. Ensure that all
water droplets are removed from the display. Water can cause permanent
discolouration. Ensure that the heart rate monitor display is not exposed to glaring
sunlight or ultraviolet rays.

Tip:
For example, if you are aiming for increased fitness, set the upper limit of your
training zone to 80% of your maximum heart rate and 65 % of your maximum heart
rate as the lower limit (Zone 2).
Example:
Upper limit (80 %) = 188 x 0.8 = 150
Lower limit (65 %) = 188 x 0.65 = 122
5.3.4.a Setting the alarm type, the maximum heart rate and the training zones
In heart rate mode, press the “SEL” key until the training zones (upper limit and lower
limit) are displayed in the top section (“ZONE”).
Keep the “SET” key pressed, the alarm symbol will flash. Select the required alarm

Troubleshooting/FAQs

22
What can the reason be for the calorie consumption/fat burning not being
correct?
Please check the entry of date of birth and weight. The calorie consumption
measurement is only a computed approximation. The device cannot provide an exact
calculation of calorie consumption.
What should I do if my weight changes?
Enter the new weight, as the previously entered weight remains saved until it is
changed.
How can the heart rate monitor contribute to me keeping fit?
Example: If you have body weight of approx. 60 kg (~132 lbs) and walk/run 10000
steps per day, you can consume around 300 Kcal per day.
Why is the heart rate monitor not displaying a heart rate?
-
Please check the chest strap. Possible error sources are:
-
The chest strap is not placed correctly.
-
The skin is too cold or too dry.
-
The sensor contact surfaces are not moistened or are dirty.
-
Atmospheric or radio interferences occur, e.g. from high-voltage lines (above
ground and underground), overhead cables, electric motors, car motors, mobile
phones, aircraft, etc.
-
Battery in chest strap too weak – please replace.
-
Distance to the chest strap is too large
-
(max. 60 cm = ~ 23.6 inches).
-
Signals from other chest straps in a vicinity of less than 2 metres can cause
incorrect values.
The heart rate display is not correct, why?
-
Perhaps the sensor contact surfaces of the chest strap are not moistened.
-
Check the chest strap for firmer positioning around the chest.
-
Also check the battery.
-
It is not advisable to simultaneously use the heart rate monitor and a radio
bicycle computer, as the signals from the bicycle computer transmitter can cause
functional errors with the heart rate monitor.
-
Signals from other chest straps in the vicinity of less than 2 metres can cause
incorrect values.
Why is the heart rate monitor displaying a heart rate that is fluctuating/too
high?
This can be caused by:
-
Electromagnetic disturbances, e.g. from high-voltage lines (above ground and
underground), overhead cables, electric motors, car motors, mobile phones,
other training devices, etc.
-
Fluctuations in heart rate are absolutely normal. The heart rate can fluctuate
daily, it depends on many factors.

What can be the reason why the display of my heart rate monitor is no longer
responding?!
If the display is “frozen” or irregular symbols appear:
-
Press and hold the “SEL” and “SET” key simultaneously for approx. 2 seconds.
All display segments will briefly appear and you will reach the default settings
again (see point 5 “Main functional modes”).
-
Alternatively: Remove the battery and reinsert it. This will reset the
microprocessor.
-
Please pay attention to the small spring protruding from the movement. Handle it
carefully so that this spring is not lost.
After this, heart rate monitor should function normally again.
The display is weak, barely readable, what can I do?
Replace the battery as soon as the display becomes weaker or fades entirely. When
inserting the new battery, always pay attention to the correct polarity. If the battery
needs to be removed and reinserted, the personal data will need to be re-entered.
Why is the display light not working?
Is the battery perhaps depleted? Please check the battery. If it is depleted, replace it
with a new one (3V / CR2032). Please pay attention to the +/- terminal.
Why is an incorrect average heart rate displayed after training?
This is probably because you did not stop the timer (stopwatch) in heart rate mode,
but are no longer wearing the chest strap. In this case, the heart rate monitor is no
longer receiving a heart rate from the chest strap, so that the watch is calculating with
the heart rate value of 0. This allows the average heart rate fall further and further.
Therefore, after
training
, stop the timer (stopwatch) in order to obtain a meaningful
heart rate.
Why are the times specified within, above and below the training zone not
correct?
This is probably because you did not stop the timer (stopwatch) in heart rate mode
after training. That is why the time for these values continues to run. Please stop the
timer (stopwatch) in heart rate mode after training.
