9.1 setting training limits
You have two ways of doing this:
1. Enter your age and gender and the upper and lower limits for the fitness performance range (between 65% and
85% of the maximum heart rate) is calculated automatically. The graphic bar display is active if the preset heart rate
limits remain unchanged.
2. Set the upper and lower heart rate limits according to the information in the section „What you need to know" or ask
your trainer or doctor. If you enter the heart rate limits yourself, the graphic representation is not active.
• You are in pulse alarm mode.
• Hold the MODE button down for 3 seconds to enter setting mode. The „Age" display starts flashing.
Now you can set your age using the Start/Stop button and the Reset button. Hold the button depressed
to change the numbers in fast mode. Confirm the entry with the MODE button. This takes you to the
next setting.
• The display starts flashing. Choose the gender M (male) or F (female) using the Start/Stop button and
the Reset button. Confirm with MODE.
• Now you can either confirm the specified value with the MODE button or set the required heart rate with
the Start/Stop button and Reset button.
• Do exactly the same with the lower limit value.
• Once all data has been set, press the MODE button for 3 seconds to exit setting mode. If no but-
tons are pressed in setting mode within 60 seconds, the heart rate monitor automatically reverts
to time display.
9.2 Activating pulse alarm

• If the heart rate alarm function is already active and the calculated heart rate limits have not been altered after ente-
ring age and gender, the following parameters are consecutively displayed every 2 seconds
