ACQUIRING HEART RATE / MEASURING STRIDE LENGTH
ACQUIRING HEART RATE: FINGER TOUCH
Heart rate may be acquired from any operating mode (not in any Setting Sequence).
With the watch on your wrist,
1. TOUCH & HOLD
(anywhere on the metal top plate of the watch) with your index finger.
NOTE: If Heart Rate Sensors are accidentally touched, the watch will automatically attempt to
acquire heart rate. If no heart rate is detected, watch will resume operating mode in approximately
10 seconds. This will not interfere with any timing functions in progress.
NOTE: You may exit Heart Rate mode at any time by Pressing the Mode, Start/Stop or Reset key.
Continue until heart rate displays.
2. TOUCHING & HOLDING
Once Heart Rate is acquired,
3. RELEASE THE SENSOR
approximately 10 seconds.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR STRIDE LENGTH
Your stride is the distance between your back foot's toe and your front foot's toe (fig. 1). To find out what
1.
your stride is, walk or run 10 steps and then measure the distance with a tape measure from the first
step's toe to the 10th step's toe (fig. 2). Divide your total distance by 10 to get your average stride length.
For a quick estimate, walk 3 steps, measure the distance, and divide by 3. The more steps you take, the
2.
more accurate and realistic your stride will be. An average walking stride for a female is 2 feet (24 in), a
male is 2.5 feet (30 in).
