USING MIO FUSE

Wash Mio FUSE regularly with mild soap and water. As Mio FUSE is designed to be worn all day, regular cleaning is necessary to prevent skin irritation. Make sure you allow both your arm and Mio FUSE to dry completely before resuming wear.

Mio FUSE Touchpoints

Mio FUSE is a touch-operated device. Navigate screens and features by tapping on the Touchpoints.

Note: To prevent accidental triggering of the device, the Touchpoints are only active when your arm is in a horizontal position, parallel to the ground.

All-Day Mode

In All-Day Mode, Mio FUSE tracks and displays your daily accumulated steps, calories, distance, and goal progress. Your activity in Workout Mode is included in these totals. The values are reset to 0 at midnight each day.
Note: calories continue to be counted even during sleep so calorie count will not be 0 when you wake up.

In All-Day Mode, tap any Touchpoint to turn on the display. Tap or to scroll through the screens. The default screens are: time, calories, steps, and goal progress. You can customize which screens to display and also set your target goal through the Mio GO app. See Setup for more information.

Mio FUSE stores up to 14 days of daily summary data. If Mio FUSE runs out of memory during All-Day Mode, it will start overwriting the oldest daily summary data. Please see Data Storage and Transfer for more information.

Workout Mode

In Workout Mode, Mio FUSE tracks and displays your real-time heart rate, current heart rate zone, workout duration, calories, distance, pace, and speed.

To enter Workout Mode, you must first turn on heart rate monitoring. Touch and hold , Mio FUSE will vibrate and proceed to find your heart rate. Hold your arm still until your heart rate is found. (If you see displayed, Mio FUSE was unable to find your heart rate. Please refer to Troubleshooting.)
To stop monitoring your heart rate, touch and hold until the display shows QUIT.

Using The Workout Timer
After Mio FUSE has found your heart rate, you can begin tracking your workout.

Start: Tap to start the timer.

Scroll: During your workout, tap or to scroll through the screens. You can customize which screens to display through the Mio GO app. Please see Setup for more information.

Pause: Touch and hold to pause the timer, and again to resume.

End Workout: When the timer is paused, touch and hold to exit Workout Mode. Mio FUSE will return to All-Day Mode.

Note: Your heart rate and workout data will only be recorded when the timer is running.

Sleep Mode

In Sleep Mode, Mio FUSE tracks your sleep data, and displays your sleep data in the Mio GO app, after syncing. Sleep mode must be activated once in bed and deactivated upon waking.

Start: To enter or activate Sleep Mode, touch and hold both and simultaneously until the display changes from "HOLD" to "SLEEP?" Tap to confirm that you want to go to sleep. The display will say "SWEET DREAMS" and then "ZZZ" to confirm that it is in sleep mode.

The display will show "ZZZ" any time you touch while your FUSE is in Sleep Mode.

Stop: When you wake up, turn off or deactivate Sleep Mode using the same steps – touch and hold both and (at the same time) until the display says "WAKE?" Tap to confirm. The display will say "GOOD MORNING" and then show the time. Your Mio FUSE is no longer in Sleep Mode.

View sleep data: Sync to the Mio GO app and view sleep data. Data displayed includes resting heart rate, sleep efficiency (time spent sleeping as a percentage of total time in bed), time in bed, time spent asleep, time spent awake, time spent in light sleep and time spent in deep sleep.

Sleep Mode Troubleshooting

If your data doesn't appear after syncing to the Mio GO app:

• Try syncing again by swiping down on the workout total screen.
• Close and re-open the app.

Wearing Your Mio FUSE

To accurately monitor your workout and sleep:

1. Fasten Mio FUSE snugly on your lower forearm, about 1-3 inches (3-8 cm) above your wrist bone. The optical sensor on the back should make good contact with your skin.
   
2. If you have a smaller wrist, wear the Mio FUSE higher on your forearm.
3. For cyclists or users with concave wrists, wear the Mio FUSE higher and on the underside of your forearm, since bending of the wrist may affect the heart rate reading.
   
4. If you are using Mio FUSE with an ANT+ sport device, wear both devices on the same arm for a better ANT+ connection.
   

For optimal heart rate accuracy, especially if you often have cold hands or poor circulation, we strongly recommend doing a warm up exercise for a few minutes before you begin to track your heart rate.

Troubleshooting

• Minimize wrist movement when Mio FUSE is searching for your initial heart rate.
• Try tightening the strap.
• Try wearing the Mio FUSE higher on your forearm.
• On colder days, activate the heart rate reading before heading outdoors.
• If you are still having trouble, try wearing Mio FUSE on your other arm.

Connecting To A Receiving Device

You can connect Mio FUSE to transmit your heart rate to many fitness apps, cycling computers, GPS watches, and other sport devices through Bluetooth Smart wireless technology (BLE) and ANT+. See what devices and apps are compatible at mioglobal.com/compatibility.

You will be required to pair Mio FUSE with every new app and receiving device you use. Pairing prevents signal interference from other sensors and devices in the area.

Tips For Pairing

• Stay 30 meters (100 feet) away from other ANT+ or Bluetooth sensors and devices.
• Position the receiving device as close to your Mio FUSE as possible, ideally within 1 meter (3 feet).
• Wear the receiving device on your arm, in your front pocket, or in front of you on a belt or bike handlebar. Do not position the device behind you (e.g. in a back pocket or backpack).
• Heart rate calculation of the Mio FUSE is not based on instant R-R interval, and will not work for apps and devices that require heart rate variability (HRV) data.

Pairing With Apps Through Bluetooth

Pairing must be completed within the app settings, not in your smart device's Bluetooth settings.

If you want to pair through ANT+, you will need a device with built-in ANT+ support, or an ANT+ dongle. (For details, visit http://www.thisisant.com.)

1. Turn on the Bluetooth function of your device. If you use an Android device, open the Bluetooth settings menu on your device. Enable the setting that makes your device visible to other Bluetooth devices.
2. Open the app that you would like to pair with and add your Mio FUSE as a heart rate sensor. The setup process varies by app, but the option to add a heart rate sensor is typically found in the Settings menu. Repeat the above pairing process for each app. After initial pairing is complete, your Mio FUSE will automatically be recognized each time you use the app.

Requirements For Android Apps

To pair with an Android app through Bluetooth Smart, all of the following requirements must be met:

• Your device is running an Android version 4.3 or higher.
• Your device has Bluetooth 4.0.
• Your app supports both of the above.

To find out whether your Android device meets the compatibility requirements, visit mioglobal.com/compatibility.

Requirements For Apple Devices

• iPhone 4S or newer.
• iPad 3 or newer.

Pairing With Sport Devices Such As Bike Computers

Instructions vary for each device. Follow your device manufacturer's instructions for receiving heart rate data from a chest strap; your device will register the Mio FUSE.
