Frequently Asked Questions - IMARA HRM NIKE

How to properly wear the heart rate transmitter?

Place the transmitter directly against the skin, on the rib cage just below the sternum. It should be tight enough to stay in place during exercise. Generously wet the two grooved areas on the back of the transmitter to ensure a good connection with your pulse.

What to do if no heart rate is displayed on the watch?

Check that the grooved areas of the transmitter are sufficiently moist and that it is well positioned against the skin. If the problem persists, replace the transmitter battery. Move away from sources of electromagnetic fields (household appliances, computers, power lines).

How to set the heart rate zones?

In CHRONO mode, press the MODE button until the zone setting screen appears. Use the buttons to set a lower and upper limit (in BPM or as a percentage of maximum heart rate). You can enable or disable the zone alarm.

How to use the chronograph?

In CHRONO mode, press the START/STOP button to start and stop the timer. During recording, you can toggle the display between BPM, percentage of max heart rate, and calories burned. If the HR zone is enabled, HI/LO indicators alert you if you are out of zone.

How to set training intervals?

In INTERVAL mode, set two segments: one for intense effort and one for recovery. Each segment can be set by duration (up to 23h59min59s). The segments repeat automatically up to 50 loops or until you stop the timer.

How to view workout data?

In DATA mode, use the MODE button to browse recorded workouts. You will find total duration, calories burned, average heart rate, and, if the HR zone is enabled, time spent in, above, and below the target zone.

How to set the alarm?

In ALRM mode, press MODE to enter settings. Set the alarm time using the buttons. The alarm will ring automatically after setting. To enable/disable it, press one of the right side buttons. The alarm icon appears in ALRM and TIME modes.

What to do if the watch display freezes?

The display may freeze due to static electricity discharge or after a battery change. To reset, press and hold all four buttons simultaneously. This will clear data and restore factory settings.

How to replace the watch battery?

Use a coin to turn the battery cover a quarter turn counterclockwise. Remove the old battery and insert a new CR2032 battery observing polarity. Make sure the O-ring is in place before closing the cover.

What precautions should be taken regarding batteries?

Keep batteries out of reach of children. If swallowed, contact a doctor immediately. Batteries contain chemical substances; dispose of them according to local regulations. Do not short-circuit or recharge batteries.

Quick Start Follow the steps on the next two pages to position the heart-rate transmitter and begin your workout.

Push tab up through slot in HR transmitter.

3 Attach other side of HR transmitter around chest. Position on rib cage just below the breastplate. The transmitter should be worn directly against skin and snug enough to stay in place during workout.

Press down tab until flush.

4 Generously wet both grooved areas on the back of the HR transmitter to ensure a strong connection between your pulse and the transmitter.

No Heart Rate Displayed

If you see three blinking lines in the display, the watch is not receiving transmission from the HR transmitter.

Run through the Quick Start again or see the Troubleshooting guide.

In TIME mode you can set the time, date and power save option. TIME mode is the only mode in which you can turn the button chime ON and OFF. Follow the chart below to adjust the time and date settings.

Setting Heart Rate Zone

Your heart rate is measured in beats per minute (BPM). Setting a heart rate zone allows you to exercise within an upper and lower heart rate limit. The watch will report your heart rate in either BPM or a percentage of your maximum heart rate. Follow the chart below to set a target heart rate zone.

Setting Calorie Information

The calorie counter will automatically determine the amount of calories you have burned during a workout. Follow the chart below to enter the information used to calculate calories burned.

Use the MODE button to scroll to CRON mode

This chart assumes the HR ZONE is turned OFF. If the HR ZONE is ON you will have to press the MODE button until KG WT or LBS WT appears on the display.

NOTE: Your Max. HR can be determined using the Heart Rate Chart near the back of this manual. The chart has a basic calculation and may not work for everyone. For best results, consult your physician for a Max. HR that is correct for you.

Using the Chronograph

The chronograph is as easy as start and stop with the ability to switch the view to display either BPM, a percentage of your maximum heart rate or the calories burned during a workout. If the HR Zone and the Zone Alarm are turned ON, the chronograph will alert the user if they are outside of the set HR Zone (see Setting Heart Rate Zone to turn the HR Zone ON). Follow the chart below to operate the chronograph.

Out-of-Zone Indicators

If the HR Zone is turned ON and your heart rate is outside of the target zone, the Out-of-Zone Indicators will flash in the chronograph display. HI indicates your heart rate is above the zone. LO indicates a heart rate below the zone. If the Zone Alarm is turned ON, a beep will sound with either indicator. (See Setting Heart Rate Zone to turn the HR Zone and Zone Alarm ON/OFF)

Setting Training Intervals

INTERVAL mode features a two segment countdown timer. You can use this as an interval training tool by exercising at a hard intensity for a certain period of time, followed by a recovery interval at a easier intensity level. For example, you could set segment one as a running interval and segment two as a walking interval. As each segment is completed, the next begins. All segments will continue to repeat until the timer is stopped or you complete 50 loops of both segments. Follow the chart below to set your training intervals.

In DATA mode you can review detailed information for each workout. DATA mode will display total workout time, the calories burned during each workout and average heart rate. If the HR Zone is turned ON, DATA mode will also return total time in, above and below the target heart rate zone. Follow the chart below to review the data for each workout.

Use the MODE button to scroll to DATA mode

DATA EMPTY

If the display reads DATA EMPTY, the chronograph has been cleared and there is no information currently in DATA mode. You can only clear workout information within CRON mode.

Within ALRM mode you can set one daily alarm. The alarm will sound for 20 seconds.

Heart Rate Intensity Chart

This is another way to gauge your approximate heart rate zones based on your age. Starting with your Max. Heart Rate, use the chart to help calculate your zones depending on the intensity of your workout. This formula is very basic and may not work for everyone. For best results, consult your physician for a Max. HR that is correct for you.

Find your Max Heart Rate	Determine your Target Heart Rate Zones (Intensities)
210 - (0.7 x age)	Light Intensity (60-70% of Max HR)	Moderate Intensity (70-80% of Max HR)	Heavy Intensity (80-90% of Max HR)	Maximum Intensity (90-100% of Max HR)
	Exercise in this range at the start of a workout or to recover from a tough workout or race. You should be able to easily maintain a conversation while exercising at this intensity.	Exercise in this range to develop endurance and prepare your muscles to make the transition from aerobic to anaerobic. You should be able to maintain this for a while. You should not be completely breathless and this should not hurt.	Exercise in this range to increase muscle strength and improve your anaerobic threshold. This is uncomfortable. You should be breathing very heavily. You should only be able to sustain this for a brief time.	Exercise in this range to increase mental toughness, Max V02 and tolerance to lactic acid. This is very uncomfortable. You can barely sustain it. You should be completely breathless. Do not exercise at this intensity except on the advice of a trained medical professional.
