5.At some point during stages 1-5, you hear two beeps. Your OwnZone has been determined. If the OwnZone determination succeeds, the following information is displayed:

OwnZone Updated

OwnZone heart rate limits as beats per minute (bpm) or as a percentage of your maximum heart rate (%HRmax) depending on your settings

Your current heart rate

If the OwnZone determination did not succeed, OwnZone Limits and your previously determined OwnZone limits (bpm/%HRmax), are displayed. If you have not determined your OwnZone before, your age-base limits are used.

You can now continue with your exercise. Try to stay within the given heart rate zone to maximize the benefits of the exercise session.
