Training with your smartLAB runner pulse watch ® Exercising at the right heart rate intensity, is key to meeting your fitness and performance goals. - Page 31 Intensity of exercise: If you are a beginner with the goal of improving over- all fitness, losing weight or reducing stress, exercise in the healthy zone, which is 50-59 percent of your maximum heart rate. If you already exercise regularly and are aiming to lose body fat, exercise in the fat burning zone, which is 60-69 percent of your maximum heart rate.
- Page 32 Example: Taking a 30 year old just starting on an exercise program with the aim of getting fitter would start exercising at a gentle intensity of 50-59% of maximum heart frequency (MHR): 50% of 190 = 95 bpm, 59% of 190 = 112 bpm.
- Page 33 The F.I.T.T. Method: (Frequency, Intensity, Time, Type of Exercise) - Frequency of exercise: Exercise in the zone that you have set at least 3-5 times per week, with no more than 48 hours between sessions. Even on „rest days“ gentle exercise such as leisurely walk can be beneficial. - Intensity of exercise: Select a zone that is both within your capability and in which you can achieve consistency.

Page 34: Miscellaneous Maintenance
IV. Miscellaneous Maintenance • Thoroughly wipe and dry your smartLAB®runner pulse watch and transmitter after use • Store in a cool and dry place. You can use the smartLAB plastic box, ® for example. • Do not expose to direct sunlight or temperatures above 122 degrees Fahrenheit (50°C) or below 14 degrees Fahrenheit (-10°C). -
Page 35: Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting • What if the heart rate reading is erratic or totally absent 1- Make sure that the chest transmitter is sufficiently tight. The transmitter should be positioned and the elastic strap tightened so that the electrodes are flat against your skin. Adjust the transmitter side to side or slightly up or down until it is positioned correctly, and the electrodes make good contact with your skin 2- Make sure the transmitter electrodes are sufficiently moist. - Page 36 • What if the heart rate reading becomes extremely high? Electromagnetic signals from outside sources may cause abnormally high heart rate readings. Common sources of electromagnetic signals are high voltage power lines, electric motors and mobile phones. Your heart rate should return to normal once you move away from the source.
