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.

IMPORTANT If “HR ---“ is displayed because no signal has been found, press and hold MODE/- to force a signal search.

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.

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.

Check the batteries. If they are low or exhausted, the transmission range may be shortened.

Press and hold MODE/- to force a signal search.

2.The gym equipment does not seem to work with your

chest belt and the digital icon

is displayed:

Most gym equipment is compatible with the analog

system . Press and hold the chest belt button for more than 4 seconds to change from digital to analog. Then press and hold MODE/- to 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:

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.

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.

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.

START EXERCISING

Before you start exercise, allow the watch a few seconds to search for chest belt first. This is to ensure you can receive comprehensive calculations (such as your lap, calorie and heart rate) during exercise.

Ensure HR zone or limits have been set and if doing pre- programmed exercise, that the time conditions have been set.
