MANUAL:
Instead of determining your target heart rate zone by using OwnZone or Automatic limits, you can determine
your target heart rate limits manually by using the age formula.
Your target heart rate zone is a range between lower and upper heart rate limits expressed as percentages of
your maximum heart rate (HR
) or as beats per minute (bpm). HR

minute during maximum physical exertion. The wrist unit calculates your HR
Maximum heart rate = 220–age. For more accurate measurement of your HR

The wrist unit displays your previously determined heart rate limits. Alternatively, if you have not determined
the manual limits before your age-based limits are displayed.
