HR ALARM: Adjust the target zone alarm sound
volume.
HR LIMITS: You can choose to exercise from four
different heart rate limits:
1. OWNZONE: The wrist unit determines your
individual target heart rate zone automatically
in the beginning of every exercise. Select HARD,
MODERATE, LIGHT or BASIC intensity for your
OwnZone.
2. AUTOMATIC: Limits are determined using an
age-based formula (220 minus age). Choose
HARD, MODERATE, LIGHT or BASIC. Make sure you
have entered the correct date of birth in User
Settings!
3. MANUAL: Set your target heart rate limits
manually.
4. For exercise without any given limits, select
OFF.
HR VIEW: Select HR to display your heart rate in
beats per minute (bpm) or HR% to view a
percentage of maximum heart rate.
Choose your OwnZone or Automatic heart rate
limits from four exercise intensities:
HARD (80-90% HR
max
) is for a relatively short
exercise at high intensity.
MODERATE (70-80% HR
max
) is effective
particularly for improving aerobic fitness. It is
recommended for people exercising regularly.
LIGHT (60-70% HR
max
) is good for improving
health and fitness. It also improves basic
endurance and helps you to recover from
heavier exercise.
BASIC (65-85% HR
max
) is suitable for aerobic
intensity exercise.
