Use Your Heart Rate Monitor

1. Thoroughly wet the Heart Rate sensor pads under
running tap water (2-3 seconds per pad). If
necessary, use a heart rate monitor electrode gel for
better contact.
2. Center the Sensor on your chest with the Timex
logo facing up and out and fasten it firmly, just
below your sternum.
3. Press the MODE button until your desired mode appears. You can view
heart rate information in Time of Day, Chrono, Interval Timer, or Timer
Modes.
4. Press the HEART RATE button on your watch. The antenna icon will
appear on the display indicating the watch is searching for a signal
from the Heart Rate Sensor. When the watch begins receiving a signal,
a pulsing heart icon will appear on the display. In certain modes, the
watch will automatically search for a Heart Rate Sensor when you
enter the mode.
NOTE: The watch automatically records your heart rate and other
statistical data about your workout (available in Review Mode) when
you use Chrono and Interval Timer Modes.

chosen target heart rate zone press and hold HEART RATE to turn the
audible alert off. Otherwise it will continue beeping until you return to
your target zone. When you are turning the audible alert off, you will
see the message HOLD FOR ALERT OFF. Conversely, when turning the
audible alert on, you will see the message HOLD FOR ALERT ON.
7. When you have finished your workout, press the STOP/RESET/SET
button to stop recording data for the workout if you are using Chrono
or Interval Timer Modes.
8. Remove the Heart Rate Sensor from your chest and the watch will stop
recording further heart rate data in approximately one minute.
9. Press MODE until you see Review Mode. This Mode includes heart rate
and other statistical data about your workout.
Note: Thoroughly clean your Heart Rate Sensor to maintain its
performance. The FLEX TECH™ strap can be machine washed in cold
water with the transmitter removed. Hang it to dry away from direct heat
or sunlight. Dry the metal contacts on the transmitter and the strap to
prevent corrosion.
