Determining heart rate range
Automatic calculation
Your heart rate monitor calculates your upper and lower limits automatically from
the personal data you enter.
In order to ensure the best possible training with the heart rate monitor you can
also calculate and enter a specific training range with upper and lower heart rate
limits manually.
Manual calculation
To calculate the training limits, take your maximum heart rate (MHR) as a basis. It
is normally calculated using the following formula:
Men : 220 minus age
Women : 230 minus age
To determine your personal, maximum heart rate, consult your doctor or your
trainer.
15
Determining heart rate range
Now you can calculate the upper and lower pulse limits for your form of training. To
do this multiply your maximum heart rate with the factor that matches your desired
type of training:
Maintaining health:
Lower limit: MHR x 0.50;
Upper limit: MHR x 0.65.
Endurance training:
Lower limit: MHR x 0.65;
Upper limit: MHR x 0.80.
Maximum intensity:
Lower limit: MHR x 0.80;
Upper limit: MHR x 0.95.
16
Determining heart rate range
Example:
A 35-year old woman who wants to do endurance training sets her lower training
limit to 127 (230 - 35 = 195 * 0.65 = 126.75) and the upper training limit to 156
(230 - 35 = 195 * 0.6 = 156).
Discuss your personal training type and your personal heart rate range with a doctor or a
qualified trainer!
17
Determining limits automatically
In order to set your training limits press to change to the stopwatch mode.
STW (for stopwatch) appears in the lowest line of the screen.
 Hold down for approx 2 seconds. After displaying the screen that you
use to switch between the training stopwatch and lap time stop watch using the
button appears as does the one to switch the recovery countdown/fitness
test on or off (RECOV ON/OFF; Page 42).
In order to make the settings the stopwatch must show
0:00:00!
18
Determining limits automatically
 Press the mode button to access the EXERCISE setting. Press to set
the exercise type from 1 to 38 with the aid the table in the "Activity/sport types
parameters, Page 29" chapter or from the enclosed activity list.
Press the mode button to access the INTEN setting. Press to set the
intensity from 1 (fat-burning training), 2 (basic endurance training) or 3 (intensive
endurance training).
19
Determining limits automatically
Description of the training types
Fat-burning training:
The limits for this type of training are calculated for ideal fat burning.
Basic endurance training:
In this type of exercise the limits are calculated for training at normal intensities.
Intensive training:
In this type of exercise the limits are calculated for training at high intensities.

Warnings when you leave the heart rate range
Your current heart rate is displayed during training.
If your heart rate is above the set range you are informed of this by a flashing value
and an up (pulse too high) or down (pulse too low) arrow. The arrows disappear as
soon as your current value is located within the pre-set training range.
27
Determining limits automatically
An acoustic alarm can also be set.
 Press the button for approx 2 seconds to activate/deactivate the acoustic
signal. The symbol for the acoustic signal is shown on the screen. If the pulse now

Before training you can change the parameters as required. Otherwise the
standard settings for the type of sport are used.
The calorie consumption is measured at a heart rate of more than 100 beats/minute and only
after the training stopwatch has been started.

31
Calorie mode (KCAL)
In Calorie mode the display switches every 2 seconds between KCAL (current
calorie consumption) and BMI (the body mass index calculated from your personal
data).
If you hold the button for longer than two seconds the screen switches to KG
mode (refer to Page 45).
About BMI:
The body mass index states the ratio between height and weight.
The BMI is calculated by dividing the weight [kg] by the height squared [m²]. The
formula is:
BMI = body weight : (body height in m²)
Therefore the unit for the BMI is kg/m².
For example: A person is 160 cm tall and weighs 60 kg. Their BMI is 23.4.
[60 : (1.6 m)² = 23.4].
The "ideal" BMI depends on age. The following table lists BMI values for
32
Calorie mode (KCAL)
various age groups:
Age BMI
19-24 years 19-24
25-34 years 20-25
35-44 years 21-26
45-54 years 22-27

Putting on transmitter
The transmitter is worn directly on your skin. Adjust the elastic strap so that the
transmitter lies tightly on your chest.
To achieve better contact with the skin, lightly moisten the conductive transmitter pad with
ECG-gel (available in pharmacies).
47
Putting on transmitter
 Put on the belt a few minutes before you start in order to warm
it up to body temperature. Find an optimal and comfortable
position for the belt. The contact between skin and transmitter
may not be interrupted even while breathing deeply.
 Attach the heart rate monitor to your wrist.
 Press any button to activate the watch. If the reception is good,
the heart symbol will blink when receiving transmission signals.
It can take a few seconds until the heart rate is displayed. Vary the position
of the transmitter as necessary to obtain the best possible contact.
48
Heart rate display
The heart symbol will blink in the display if your heart rate
meter receives signals from the transmitter. The
measured heart rate is displayed on the top right.
Frequency interferences
Wireless heart rate meters can be affected by interference from external radio
frequencies. Electronic training devices in fitness clubs, mobile phones, wireless
bicycle computers, high voltage lines or similar can cause irregular transmission
pulses which could cause a "
0" to appear in the display during training.
When training in groups, other heart rate transmitters may overlay your signal and
cause an incorrect heart rate display. To receive correct signals, maintain a
distance of approx. 2 metres to other users of heart rate meters.
49
Additional functions
Alarm tones
If you press the button for approx. 2 seconds you can set the following alarm
tones:
 Sound when buttons are pressed
 Alarm tone if maximum or minimum heart rate limits are not adhered too
To switch off this alarm tone press again for approx. 2 seconds.
In addition each alarm
almo1 (Alarm1) to almo8 (Alarm8) has an alarm sound;
at the end of the countdown period and the start and end of the three-minute
recovery period.
50
Additional functions
Power saving mode
If no signal is received for approx. 5 minutes, your heart rate meter will
automatically switch to power-save mode. Only the time and date are displayed.
Press any button to "wake up" your watch.
Reset
 Hold down all 4 buttons for approx. 3 seconds. All the existing messages are
displayed on the screen at the same time.
 Press the button. The watch counts down from 3 to 0.
 Press the button (the watch beeps) and then the button.
Your heart rate meter is now back in factory condition.
51
Additional functions
Fixing the watch to handlebars.
 Place the supplied bracket on the handlebars.
 Strap on the heart rate meter and adjust the wrist strap
so that it compresses the brackets on the handlebar.
52
Handling errors
The heart rate is not displayed:
 Check the position of the transmitter.
 Is the transmitter too far away from the watch?
 Are sources of electrical interference preventing faultless transmission?
 Is the transmitter battery empty?
The display is black:
 The ambient temperature is outside the operating range (0° to 55°).
The display is blank:
 The receiver battery is empty. To exchange the receiver battery, refer to a
specialist watch shop or to the Service Hotline.
53
Environmental protection notes
Empty batteries do not belong in the household rubbish, but in the collection bins for this
purpose.
Before disposing (end of life) of your heart rate meter, you must remove the batteries!
 Open the battery compartment on the chest strap and turn the battery lid
in the direction of the arrow using a coin. Now you can remove the transmitter
