DETRMINING YOUR EXERCISE FACTOR
The Exercise Factor Setting is one of the variables used by the watch
in estimating the amount of calories burned during your workout.
The most common forms of exercise are listed in the chart below.
These numbers represent a moderate to high-effort level range.
Select a number from the chart below based on how hard you plan
to exercise for a given activity and set your unit accordingly. (See
Setting instructions on page 11).
Weve highlighted the most common forms of activities. If you do
not find the particular activity you are looking for, refer to one thats
similar.
Note: Any items not set will default to standard average val-
ues. The TZ limits automatically set to 65-85% of your max.
based on your age setting (where Max. = 220 - Age) (every
time the age setting is changed). This watch will allow you to
program your upper and lower limits within one beat of each
other. It will also allow you to set either limit to the "off" posi-
tion, but it will not let you set the lower limit higher than the
upper or the upper to less than the lower.
