Troubleshooting – heart rate
if you are having difficulty measuring your heart rate, you may want to try
the following steps. try each of these in succession until you are able to
measure your heart rate:
1. M ake sure the watch is snugly strapped to your wrist. A loose fit
makes it more difficult to properly measure your heart rate.
2. W hen touching the heart rate sensor, make sure you are using the
soft, flat pad of your finger, not the tip of your finger.
3. P ress gently with enough pressure to activate the heart rate measure
function. Muscle "noise" from pressing too hard can make it difficult to
measure your heart rate.
