2. Place your finger on the watch’s Heart Rate Sensor (the stainless steel
top ring) and touch gently for 5-8 seconds (the heart icon will flash).
3. The Health Touch™ watch will beep and your heart rate will be
displayed in beats per minute (BPM).
Your Heart Rate reading will remain displayed for 6 seconds after you
remove your finger from the Heart Rate Sensor.
This watch is a sensitive monitoring device that reads your ECG signals
and reading times may vary. If you do not get a reading, remove your
finger from the bezel for 30 seconds and try again. If you still do not get
a reading refer to the Troubleshooting - Heart Rate section.
Heart Rate Lock
The Heart Rate Lock feature prevents triggering the heart rate feature
from accidental contact and environments where excessive water/
moisture is present. An example would be in a pool where the watch is
submerged in water. Since water acts as a natural conductor, it can
accidentally trigger the heart rate feature.
To activate the Heart Rate Lock:
1. In Time of Day, hold RESET for 3 seconds.
2. The “l”icon will appear, and if you try to measure
your heart rate, the message “Hr OFF” will display.
3. To unlock the heart rate feature, repeat Step 1.
NOTE: If you need to take a heart rate reading while the watch is
“locked”, there is an override to this feature. Press RESET, and while the
“l” is flashing, measure your heart rate. Once the heart rate is displayed,
the Lock feature is reinstated.
