Wearing Your Alpha

To use the heart rate monitor on your Alpha watch, you must:

• Fasten the watch snugly so the optical sensor on the back of the watch makes good contact with your skin

• Wear the watch above—not on—your wrist bone; wear it higher on the forearm if you have a small wrist

• If you often have cold hands or poor circulation, your Alpha’s performance may be diminished. Try exercising for a few minutes to increase your blood flow before turning on the heart rate monitor.

When you’re not using the heart rate monitor, you can wear your Alpha like any watch.

Getting Your Heart Rate

1. Press and hold the HR button until the watch beeps and the display says FIND.

2. Hold your arm fairly still until the watch beeps again and displays your heart rate.

Note: It takes a few seconds for your heart rate to register.

If you see , the heart rate signal is not strong enough. Please refer to Troubleshooting.

Troubleshooting

• You may need to tighten the watch strap.

• On cold days, activate the heart rate reading while still indoors.

• If you are still having trouble, try wearing Alpha on your other wrist.

• Minimize wrist movement while using Alpha's continuous heart rate.

If Alpha cannot detect your heart rate during the FIND period (2 min), it will leave EXERCISE mode and go back to TIME mode.

Turning Off Heart Rate

Press and hold the HR button until the watch beeps and the display says

QUIT or END.

Wireless Data Transfer
