Correct Positioning Of The Heart Rate Monitor Watch - Crivit 1-LD5029 Bedienungs- Und Sicherheitshinweise

Correct positioning of the heart rate monitor watch

Place the heart rate monitor watch on your wrist. The correct positioning is important
for precise measurements.
To measure the heart rate, the heart rate monitor watch must be snugly fitted around
your wrist. The display must face upward and must be positioned one finger-width
behind the wrist bones. The sensor must be touching the skin. The heart rate monitor
watch must not be worn so tightly that blood circulation is reduced. While you are
not working out, the watch should be worn more loosely around your wrist- in the
style of a normal watch. Wear the watch slightly more tightly around your wrist while
working out to maximise the precision of the heart rate measurement.
Many exercises such as cycling or weightlifting require you to angle your wrists. This
may interfere with the heart rate measurement if the heart rate monitor watch is worn
too low on the wrist. For the best results, wear your heart rate monitor watch for a
few minutes before you begin your workout.
If your hands or skin feels cool quickly, warm up your skin below the sensor. Do
some warm up exercises before you begin your workout.
Ensure that the heart rate monitor watch has skin contact.

Do not wear the heart rate monitor watch too tightly around your wrist as this

may interfere with blood circulation and reduce measurement precision.
