1 INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the HB 8M00. We hope that you will
enjoy using the Heart Meter and the benefits of the wireless transmission to
send/receive data to/from the controller or to PC. In exercise or sports, your
heart naturally speeds up in pumping blood to the body in accordance with
the increased energy level. The Heart Meter can calculate this increase
expressed as the number of beats per minute (bpm) to determine a target
heart rate safe for each individual.
With the data stored on your PC, you can transfer it to programs like
SportTracks, Perfect Session, ...
2 SAFETY NOTES
Using a Heart Monitor is NOT a substitute for professional medical
attention. If you suffer from heart disorder, illness or have recently taken up
fitness training, it is advisable that you seek a doctor or talk to your trainer
and work out a fitness plan that suits you.
The watch should only be used as a guide in maintaining a safe heart beat
rate for exercises. It should NOT be relied upon as a medical heart rate
monitor. If you are uncertain about how your exercise program will impact
on your heart, please consult a physician.
3 CARE AND MAINTENANCE
DO NOT expose the watch to extreme weather conditions or cleaning
agents and solvents. Avoid dropping or rough handling of the watch. Avoid
fastening the strap too tightly. Clean the watch with a dry soft cloth or a soft
cloth moistened with water and mild detergent. Store the watch in a dry
place when not in use.
4 CHANGING THE BATTERY
If you are not confident with electronics, let the battery be changed by a
professional. Do not open the watch yourself.
