CARE AND MAINTENANCE
- » Never attempt to disassemble or service your watch.
- » Protect your watch from extreme heat, shocks, and long-time exposure to direct sunlight.
- » Watch can be wiped clean with a lightly moistened cloth. Apply Mild soap to the area if there are stubborn stains or marks. Do not expose your watch to strong chemicals such as gasoline, clean solvents, acetone, alcohol, or insect repellents, as they may damage the unit’s seal, case, and finish.
- » Store your watch in a dry place when you are not using it.
- » Avoid allowing the watch to come into direct contact with hair liquids, colognes, sunblock creams, and other toiletries, which can cause deterioration of the plastic parts of the watch. Whenever the watch comes into contact with these or other toiletries, wipe it off immediately with a dry, soft cloth.
- » Do not wear your SD1 in the shower/sauna or other similar environments.
- » Do not push buttons underwater.
SMART TOUCH TECHNOLOGY
With SD1 Smart Touch Technology, obtaining your on-demand heart rate has never been easier. You can get a reading by placing your fingertips, palms, or just about any part of your hand on the stainless steel sensor. Experiment to find your own preference. A one-time readout of your Heart Rate (HR) in beats per minute (BPM) will display. The small digits at the right of the display show the percentage of your maximum heart rate (up to 99%).
- » For continuous reading, keep pressing the sensor.
- » For best accuracy, left and right hands should not be in contact during the test.
- » You can take your Heart Rate from any mode (except while changing settings).
TROUBLESHOOTING POINTERS
If you don’t get your heart rate (HR) within 10 seconds, moisten your finger(s) watch the case back, and try again. It helps to wear your SD1 for a little while to allow a layer of moisture to build up between the back of the watch and your arm/wrist. Exercising vigorously with a lot of arm movement or body motion can cause muscle noise” that may prevent proper detection of an HR signal. You should tighten the watch to your wrist and apply a stronger force to the top metal plate in order to reduce the movement of the watch during the exercise.
Also, relax your watch arm when taking the reading. If your HR varies, note that fluctuations are normal in a healthy heart; in fact, the healthier your heart is, the more variation you can see. However, if SD1’s calculations start to vary significantly from what you have come to expect, replace SD1’s battery. To optimize readings, occasionally clean the back of your SD1 case and the Sensor Ring with a clean, soft cloth.
EXERCISE TIMER MODE
Your SD1 has an easy-to-use exercise timer that helps you manage your exercise sessions and monitor your heart rate. There are 3 types of timers. Choose the one that is suitable for your exercise:
- Count up from zero
- » Count down to zero and stop
- » Count down to zero and repeat (up to 99 times).
There are 5 options for Exercise Type: None, Warm Up, Burn Fat, Fitness, and Training. The timer will determine an HR zone (upper and lower limit) for you based on your Exercise Type setting. You can disable the HR zone alert by selecting None in Exercise Type. If you wish to override the predetermined upper limit and lower limit, you can use the + or – buttons to adjust the values. If your HR is out of the HR zone, audio & visual warnings will alert you.
