Now you can monitor your heart rate wherever and whenever you want to. It’s a useful way to find out how fit (or unfit) you are and it’s incredibly easy to do.

The first thing you should do is input your own personal settings. You can then use the Pulse Monitor to show you your current pulse rate and warn you if it falls below or exceeds your settings.

1.Select Start/ Stop Safety Alarm Bell

2.Select ON and set /reset your target minimum and maximum heart rate. Once activated a safety alarm will alert you if your heart rate falls below or goes beyond the figure you set. You can use the following guide to help you set your OwnZone target.

Age group	Max. Heartbeat (time/ Min.)	60%	70%	80%
