➤Recovery: This feature helps you determine how quickly your heart rate returns to a lower heart rate value at the end of your activity; the quicker you return, the better your fitness level. You can set the Watch to calculate a recovery heart rate when you stop the chronograph for one minute, two minutes, or off. Selecting OFF will prevent the Watch from automatically calculating a recovery heart rate when you stop the chronograph. You may still manually calculate your recovery rate in Summary Mode, set to one minute, if you select OFF in Configure Mode.
➤Max heart rate: Enter your Maximum Heart Rate. The Watch uses this value to calculate the five preset heart rate zones and serves as a reference for displaying your heart rate as a percent of your maximum heart rate (PERCENT).
➤Heart rate display: You can set the Watch to display your heart rate as either a percentage of your maximum heart rate (PERCENT) or in beats per minute (BPM). The setting you choose will determine how your heart rate displays in all other Watch settings.

➤Zone type: Similar in concept to a heart rate target zone alert, you can set the Watch to track your speed or your pace and to alert you if you move too slowly or too quickly (alert types include an audible alert that beeps or a silent alert that flashes). You can set speed and pace limits independently. For instance, set pace limits to control pace for your run and set speed limits to values useful for cycling. Then simply switch between the settings for each activity.
➤Distance alert: Set the Watch to alert you for distance intervals. For example, you can set the Watch to alert you for every mile you travel. The distance alert will only function when you run the chronograph. If you would like the Watch to take a split based on distance traveled, refer to the
Smoothing: Smoothing is useful if you feel that the displayed speed or pace values appear to be too erratic. Smoothing applies an averaging filter and may cause the displayed speed or pace values to respond more slowly to changes.
➤Speed smoothing: Turn speed smoothing off or on.
➤Pace smoothing: Turn pace smoothing off or on.
