BEST PRACTICES FOR ACQUIRING HEART RATE

Follow these recommendations to minimize problems acquiring your heart rate.
• Make sure your wrist and index finger are clean and free from dirt, oils, or lotions.
• Make sure the Health Touch
• Make sure the metal plate on the back of the watch lies flat against your wrist.
• Wear the watch for at least five minutes before attempting to measure your heart rate.
• Stay still, relax your arms, and rest them on a stable surface.
• Touch the soft, flat pad of your index finger to the ring around the watch face (not the fingertip).
• Press gently to minimize muscle "noise" that can interfere with heart rate measurement.

FURTHER ACTIONS FOR ACQUIRING HEART RATE

If you are observing the best practices listed above and still experience problems acquiring your heart rate, try
these steps.
• Clean the steel ring around the watch face and the metal plate on the watch back with a mild soap and
water.
• Lightly moisten your index finger with water.
• Lightly moisten your wrist with water where it contacts the back of the watch.
