Find your OwnZone in 1-5 minutes during a warm-up period by cycling or walking/jogging. You should
start exercising gently at a light intensity and gradually increase intensity to raise your heart rate.
Redefine your OwnZone:
• When changing exercise environment or exercise mode.
• When taking up exercise after more than a week's break.
• If you are not completely sure of your physical or mental state – for example, if you are not recovered from
previous training, not feeling well, or are stressed.
• After changing user settings.
Before you start determining your OwnZone, make sure that:
• Your user settings are correct.
• The OwnZone function is activated. The cycling computer will automatically determine OwnZone every
time you start exercising if the OwnZone function is on.

automatically applied.
You can now continue with your exercise. Try to keep inside the given heart rate zone to maximize exercise
benefits.
