NOTE When the watch is left idle for 30 seconds during set  
up, it will automatically exit.  
Once user profile is set, the watch will automatically

These calculations along with the calorie / fat % burned  
and the period you exercised at the correct intensity (within  
chosen HR zone / limits) will help you track your progress  
over time.  
TIP For your added convenience, the watch has been  
programmed to exit settings / current mode and return to  
default time display upon a simple tap of the screen.

SET EXERCISE PROGRAM  
To achieve balanced fitness, you may wish to do a variety  
of exercises for different parts of the body and at varying  
intensities. To accommodate this, the exercise program  
can be set to suit different activities, from pre-programmed  
exercises such as jogging, running and cycling to general  
exercise with no specific time schedule or planning.  
(Choose either option A or B below. See “Maximum / Upper

The watch has a pre-programmed exercise option, the Smart  
Training Program, which enables you to complete exercise  
cycles effectively. It will guide you through from a “warm-up”  
session to the “end of your exercise” program. In addition to  
monitoring your heart rate and alerting you whenever you  
fall out of the HR range for the selected training zone, the  
program allows you to check the calories burned and the  
percentage of fat burned.

NOTE Sound alert will only be activated if alert setting is  
ON and during exercise (when stopwatch is running).  
IMPORTANT Always warm up before exercise and select  
the training category that best suits your physique. Exercise  
regularly, 20 to 30 minutes per session, three to four times a  
week for a healthier cardiovascular system.

DESCRIPTION  
Heart rate sound alert is ON.  
WARNING Determining your individual training category  
is a critical step in the process towards an efficient and  
safe training program. Please consult your doctor or health  
professional to help you determine exercise frequency and  
duration appropriate for your age, condition and specific  
goals.  
1 beep = you have gone below  
your lower HR limit

ALERT  
DEHYDRATION ALERT  
* During exercise, when the heart rate is out of the target  
zone, the watch will send out visual and/or sound alerts. You  
can choose to turn the sound alert on/off in the “SET ALERT”  
During exercise your body loses water, most noticeably in  
the form of perspiration. Water makes up 60% of an adult’s  
body and performs many critical functions. Water can boost

endurance during prolonged exercise and keep the body  
performing at optimal levels.  
USE TAP ON LENS FUNCTION  
To activate / deactivate Tap on Lens function:  
This watch intelligently processes your information, exercise  
intensity, and duration to remind you, at the appropriate  
time, the need to rehydrate.  
1. Press SET/LAP twice. Display will show “ON / OFF  
TAP ON LENS”.  
2. Press ST/SP/+ to toggle ON/OFF.  
The bar icon  
is made up of 5 segments.

WEARING THE CHEST BELT AND WATCH  
Chest belt  
The tap on lens feature gives you easy access to 1 of 4  
exercise programs.  
The chest belt counts your heartbeat and transmits this data  
to the watch.  
To select the type of exercise:  
1. Wet the conductive pads on the underside of the chest  
belt with a few drops of

water or conductive gel to  
ensure solid contact.  
2. Press SET/LAP to enter exercise program setting  
options. “SET AUTO” will be displayed shortly after.  
2. Strap the heart rate chest belt  
across your chest. To ensure  
an accurate heart rate signal,  
adjust the strap until the belt  
sits snugly below your pectoral  
muscles.  
3. Press ST/SP/+ repeatedly to navigate to “SET TAP ON  
LENS” then press SET/LAP to enter settings.  
4. Press ST/SP/+ to select ON and press SET/LAP to  
confirm.  
5. Press ST/SP/+ or MODE/- to select exercise program  
(JOG, RUN, CYCLE) or general exercise monitoring  
(AUTO).  
TIPS  
The position of the chest belt affects its performance.  
Avoid areas with dense chest hair.  
9
 
In dry, cold climates, it may take several minutes for  
the chest belt to function steadily. This is normal and  
should improve with several minutes of exercise.  
TRANSMISSION SIGNAL  
The heart rate chest belt and watch have a maximum  
transmission range of about 62.5 centimeters (25 inches).  
They are equipped with the latest digital coding system to  
reduce signal interference from the environment, as well  
as analog technology. For more accurate readings use the  
digital transmission signal. You should only switch to the  
analog transmission signal if the situation in point 2 occurs  
(see below).  
NOTE To maintain the best performance of your chest belt,  
please handle it with care according to the following:  
Do not wrap the chest belt in a wet towel nor with other  
wet materials.  
Do not store the chest belt in a hot (about 50°C) and  
humid (about 90%) environment.  
Do not place or wash the chest belt under running  
water, instead clean it with a wet cloth.  
NOTE Whenever the watch is searching for the chest belt  
signal (manual or automatic search), make sure that the chest  
belt is no further than 10 cm (4 inches) from the watch.  
Do not place the conductive rubber face down on a  
metal table or surface.  
Your watch will advise you which system it is using and the  
signal status by displaying the following icons:  
Properly dry the chest belt immediately after use.

NOTE To switch from digital to  
analog or analog to digital system,  
press the chest belt button for  
more than 4 seconds and then  
force a signal search.  
3. Interference from another person’s heart rate monitor  
- their heart rate readings appear on your watch, or the  
heart rate monitor shows “0”:  
Press the chest belt button to get the watch to  
receive your chest belt signal. Do not press and  
hold the chest belt button, as it will change the  
transmission signal from digital to analog.  
4. The signal is jammed - the heart rate reading on your  
watch is flashing:  
IMPORTANT If “HR ---“ is displayed because no signal  
has been found, press and hold MODE/- to force a signal  
search.  
There is too much interference in the environment  
for your heart rate monitor to function. Move to an  
area where the heart rate reading stops flashing.  
In the event that you experience a weak signal or your signal  
is disrupted by interference in the environment, follow the  
instructions below to identify and resolve the situation.  
WARNING Signal interference in the environment can be  
caused by electromagnetic disturbances. These may occur  
near high voltage power lines, traffic lights, overhead lines  
of electric railways, electric bus lines or trams, televisions,  
car motors, bike computers, some motor driven exercise  
equipment, cellular phones or when you walk through  
electric security gates. Under interference, the heart rate  
reading may become unstable and inaccurate.  
1. The signal is weak - the watch heart rate monitor will  
only show “0”:  
Shorten the distance between the heart rate chest  
belt and watch.  
Re-adjust the position of the heart rate chest belt.  
Check the conductive pads are moist enough to  
ensure solid contact.  
NOTE If the watch is kept idle without receiving a heart rate  
signal for half a minute, the heart rate mode will quit and  
return to clock mode.  
Check the batteries. If they are low or exhausted,  
the transmission range may be shortened.  
Press and hold MODE/- to force a signal search.

ABOUT THE FITNESS / BODY MASS INDEX  
FITNESS INDEX  
Your watch will generate a fitness index based on your  
aerobic fitness. This index is dependent and limited by the  
body’s ability to deliver oxygen to the working muscles in  
17  
 
training. It is often measured by maximum oxygen uptake  
(VO2 Max), which is defined as the highest amount  
of oxygen that can be utilized when exercising at an  
increasingly demanding level. The lungs, heart, blood,  
circulatory system, and working muscles are all factors in  
determined VO2 Max. The unit of VO2 Max is ml/kg min.  
BODY MASS INDEX  
Your body mass index is a measurement of the relative  
percentages of fat and muscle mass in the human body.
