Timer Mode Example

As part of your overall health plan, you decide to take a 30-minute
walk during your lunch hour two times a week. To help keep track of
time so you do not return late from your lunch hour, you set the timer
to 15 minutes and then set it to repeat one time. After 15 minutes the
watch beeps telling you to begin walking back to your office. Since
you set the timer to REPEAT, the watch begins timing another 15
minute session helping you track how much time you have to return
to your office.

About Recovery Heart Rate

Heart rate recovery provides an indicator of fitness and training level. As
you become more fit, your heart rate should return more quickly to a lower
heart rate value at the end of your workout, indicating a higher level of
cardiovascular fitness.
A slower recovery rate might also indicate a need to take a break
from training due to fatigue, illness, or other factors.
