If you make an error when entering any Fit Test data, you can correct it by pressing CLEAR, inputting the correct informa-
tion, and pressing ENTER.
It is important for you to take the Fit Test under similar circumstances each time. Your heart rate is dependent on many
factors, including:
• amount of sleep the previous night (at least seven hours is recommended)
• time of day
• time you last ate (two to four hours after the last meal is recommended)
• time since you last drank a liquid containing caffeine or alcohol, or smoked a cigarette (at least four hours is rec-
ommended)
• time since you last exercised (at least six hours is recommended)
For the most accurate Fit Test results, you should perform the Fit Test on three consecutive days and average the three
scores.
