SLEEP TRACKER

Total sleep time is accumulated during all sleep sessions that end on a particular day. For example, if you fell asleep last night and woke up this morning, your sleep duration will be added to today's total sleep time.

However, if you fell asleep last night at 10:00 p.m. and woke up at 11:00 p.m., that hour of sleep would be added to yesterday's total sleep time.

NOTE: Once you wake up, the total sleep time will update after a brief period.

NOTE: The minimum sleep time for recorded data is 45 minutes.

HEART RATE MONITOR

Your heart is at the center of everything you do – fueling your life and driving your passions. Monitoring your heart rate and using it in activity tracking is the most accurate way to set your fitness goals and help you reach them.

Why measure heart rate?

- Taking your heart rate will help you stay in your workout zones and help calculate your calorie burn more accurately.

MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE TWO WAYS

1. VIA CHEST BELT

The Zone R420 is BLE chest belt compatible (sold separately). This additional feature lets you record continuous heart rate readings to your watch, so you can capture complete heart rate and calorie burn data during your workout. To help you track your results, you can also sync your cardio data to the LifeTrak app after your workout - so you know if you need to push harder next time.

2. VIA FINGER TOUCH

Don't want to wear a chest belt, but you want a heart rate reading? Get your ECG heart rate reading at the press of a button - no chest strap needed!

1. Wear snugly around your wrist.
2. Gently press and hold VIEW for 3 to 8 seconds until your heart rate appears.

VIEW

Press & hold to read your heart rate

Pulse Indicator

This feature will NOT be available when you are using your compatible BLE chest belt in Workout Mode.

CONTINUOUS HEART RATE (BLE CHEST BELT)

Place your compatible* Bluetooth® chest belt (chest belt not included) around your rib cage, just below your pectoral muscles.

Adjust the elastic strap so it is tight enough not to move during your workout, but not so tight that it restricts breathing.

For optimal results, let the chest belt 'warm up' for a few minutes before starting your workout.

*Please visit the LifeTrak website www.lifetrakusa.com for a list of compatible BLE heart rate chest belts / transmitters.

PAIR YOUR CHEST BELT

You must be wearing your BLE chest belt to PAIR to your Zone R420

INSIDE SETTING MODE

* Clear and Info will not appear the first time you PAIR your BLE chest belt. After your BLE chest belt successfully pairs, you can then unpair (clear) or view chest belt (info).

SET HR LOG RATE

This is how often your heart rate readings will be logged. Select 1-5 seconds.

HELPFUL HINTS ABOUT TOUCH HEART RATE

If you are having difficulty acquiring your heart rate, try the following:

1. Make sure your LifeTrak fitness tracker is snugly strapped to your wrist. A loose fit makes it more difficult to properly measure your heart rate.
2. Upon putting on for the first time, allow a one-minute "warm up" before trying to acquire your heart rate.
3. When touching the heart sensor button (VIEW), make sure you are using the soft, flat pads of your fingers, not the tips of your fingers.
4. Touch gently with enough pressure to activate the heart sensor button (VIEW). Pressing too hard can make it difficult to measure your heart rate.
5. Make sure the back metal plate is lying flat on your skin.
6. Make sure your wrist and fingers are clean and free from dirt, oils, or lotions.
7. Clean the heart sensor button (VIEW) and back metal plate with a mild soap and water, or similar cleaning solution.
8. Moisten with water the pads of the fingers you are using to contact the heart sensor button (VIEW).
9. Moisten the surface between the back metal plate and the skin on your wrist with water.

HELPFUL HINTS ABOUT ALL-DAY CALORIE TRACKING

• Your body is always burning calories, even when sleeping or not in motion. Our All-Day Calorie Tracker accounts for these calories burned.
• You will see calories burned even when you're not wearing your LifeTrak. This is normal as it is estimating the calories your body typically burns throughout the day.
• You get more accurate calorie burn information by calculating in your heart rate readings, so remember to take your heart rate throughout the day and more frequently during your exercise.
