There are five basic heart rate target zones described in the table above.
Simply select a zone that matches your percent of maximum (%) heart rate
based on the fitness goal you want to achieve during a particular exercise.
Before you can set your zone, you first need to determine your maximum
heart rate. You can use many methods to estimate your maximum heart
rate.
The booklet Heart Zones® Tools For Success included in your Heart Rate
Monitor packaging (U.S. customers only) provides excellent procedures
and Timex recommends you use one of these methodologies.
You might consider using the government recommended age-based method.

Begin with the number 220 and then subtract your age. For instance, a
35 year old would begin with 220 and subtract 35 (the person’s age),
which gives an estimated maximum heart rate of 185. Once you know
your maximum heart rate, you can enter it in HRM Setup Mode and the
watch will automatically setup your zones as described in the table on the
previous page.
To Prepare Your Heart Rate Monitor for First Use
Once you have determined your fitness goals and maximum heart rate,
Timex recommends you pair the watch with your Heart Rate Sensor, set
the time, and set other important data in HRM Setup Mode before using
your Heart Rate Monitor.
Note: For best results, Timex recommends that you wash your heart rate
sensor in warm soapy water to remove any manufacturing oils before
using for the first time.
Heart Rate Monitor Setup and Use
Chrono and Interval Timer Modes collect heart rate data and record
detailed statistics for a workout. The Heart Rate Monitor can store
information for up to 10 workouts.
Pairing the watch and Heart Rate Sensor: Timex recommends that
you pair the Heart Rate Sensor and watch to minimize the possibility of
picking up a signal from another person’s Heart Rate Sensor. To
accurately pair the watch with the Heart Rate Sensor, go immediately
to HRM Setup Mode prior to stopping at or using any other mode. For
more information on pairing, see pages 41 to 42.
NOTE: The watch will collect heart rate data without the Chrono or Interval
Timer running. This information will not be available in Review Mode, but
®
can be transferred from the watch to a PC/Mac (Timex Data Xchanger
USB device is required). If you have an optional USB device, you can
upload workout data to a PC/Mac for storage and viewing. When the watch
can store less than five hours, or only three more sessions, of heart rate
data, the watch will display the MEMORY LOW message. When the watch
has reached its storage capacity limits, the display will read MEMORY
FULL.
Setting the Time of Day: The Heart Rate Monitor uses the time set on
the watch to record data. To ensure you are recording data at the
correct time, set the watch for your local time in Time of Day Mode.
For more information on Time of Day Mode refer to pages 12 to 17.
Entering Your Personal Data: Before using your watch it is important
to enter your weight and maximum heart rate in HRM Setup Mode.
This will allow you to tailor your Heart Rate Monitor to your personal
parameters. For information on HRM Setup Mode, refer to pages 45
to 47.
When the watch is not used with a PC/Mac these messages will be
skipped. Unless you lock a workout, you will automatically over-write an
older workout when you have reached your 10-workout limit.

chosen target heart rate zone press and hold HEART RATE to turn the
audible alert off. Otherwise it will continue beeping until you return to
your target zone. When you are turning the audible alert off, you will
see the message HOLD FOR ALERT OFF. Conversely, when turning the
audible alert on, you will see the message HOLD FOR ALERT ON.
To Use Your Heart Rate Monitor
1. Wet thoroughly the Heart Rate sensor pads under
running tap water (2-3 seconds per pad). If necessary,
use a heart rate monitor electrode gel for better
contact.
2. Center the Sensor on your chest with the Timex® logo
facing up and out and fasten it firmly, just below your
sternum.
7. When you have finished your workout, press the STOP/RESET/SET
button to stop recording data for the workout if you are using Chrono
or Interval Timer Modes.
8. Remove the Heart Rate Sensor from your chest and the watch will stop
recording further heart rate data in approximately one minute.
3. Press the MODE button until your desired mode appears. You can view
heart rate information in Time of Day, Chrono, Interval Timer, or Timer
Modes.
9. Press MODE until you see Review Mode. This Mode includes heart rate
and other statistical data about your workout. See pages 37 to 40 for
more information about Review Mode.
4. Press the HEART RATE button on your watch. The antenna icon will
appear on the display indicating the watch is searching for a signal
from the Heart Rate Sensor. When the watch begins receiving a signal,
a pulsing heart icon will appear on the display. In certain modes, the
watch will automatically search for a Heart Rate Sensor when you
enter the mode.
NO HRM DATA Message
If the watch is not receiving heart rate information, you may receive the
message NO HRM DATA on the watch display. Try the following:
Shorten the distance between the watch and the Heart Rate Sensor.
Adjust the position of the Heart Rate Sensor and elastic chest strap.
Make sure the Heart Rate Sensor pads are wet or use conductive gel.
Check the battery in the Heart Rate Sensor and replace it if necessary.
NOTE: The watch automatically records your heart rate and other
statistical data about your workout (available in Review Mode) when
you use Chrono and Interval Timer Modes.
5. Press the START/SPLIT button and begin your workout.

Time of Day Example
Assume that you live in San Francisco and work with a client in New York. Like all
busy people, it is imperative you keep track of time, so you set T1 to your local time.
But it is also important to have a quick reminder of your client’s time, so you set T2
to New York time. With both time zones available, you can quickly check your client’s
time or even switch your watch to display T2 when you travel to New York.

Interval Terminology
Interval Training: You can use interval training to help you vary the
intensity level within one workout, ultimately helping you work out
longer and harder.
Interval: Intervals relate your exercise to specific periods of time. For
instance, you can run for ten minutes, walk for two, run for twenty

Heart Rate Data When Using Interval Mode
When you operate the watch in Interval Mode with the Heart Rate Sensor,
you will accumulate heart-related data in Review Mode, including:
1. Heart Rate over Interval Time (per interval);
2. Interval Time (per interval) over Heart Rate;
3. Heart Rate only; or
1. Amount of time your heart rate stays within your target heart rate zone
(shown as IN ZONE in Review Mode);
4. Interval Time over Interval Number/Repetition Number.
If an interval is set to 00:00:00, the watch will automatically skip over

that interval. For example if INT 3 is set to 00:00:00 then the watch
will move from INT 2 directly to INT 4.
Interval Mode Example
For cross training purposes, you decide to add a one-hour spin session to your
workout routine. You decide to use Interval Mode to help you track both time and
heart rate for your workout. You set the following intervals for your workout:
When you set target heart rate zones in Interval Mode, they override
those set in HRM Setup Mode. For example, if you have set the watch
to ZONE 2 in HRM Setup Mode but set INT 3 to ZONE 3, the watch will
record heart rate data for ZONE 3 and not ZONE 2 while in Interval
Mode. This is particularly important if you set the watch to alert you if
you go above or below your target heart rate zone.

The repeat setting applies to the entire group of settings; you cannot
have the Interval Timer repeat twice for INT 1 and only once for INT 2.
You use INT 1 as a warmup. INT 2 and INT 3 represent the core of your workout
at an increasing heart rate goal, striving for 5 minutes of high intensity aerobic
workout. Finally, INT 4 is a cool down between repetitions and at the end of the
workout. In addition, you set the repetitions to 2, which allows you to repeat this
workout sequence twice for a strong one-hour interval workout routine.

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.
To Manually Determine a Recovery Heart Rate
You can also manually initiate a recovery heart rate at any time.
NOTE: When you initiate a manual recovery, this information is not stored
for viewing in Review Mode.
Your recovery rate represents the change in your heart rate over a period of
time. You can set your Heart Rate Monitor to record the change in your heart
rate for a 30-second or a 1-, 2-, 5-, or 10-minute period.
A smaller recovery might indicate a need to take a break from training due to
fatigue, illness, or other factors.

To Sync the watch with a PC
Sync Error Messages
If an error is encountered during the communication process, the watch
will generate an alert and briefly display an error message, before
returning to the READY state. Following is a list of the error messages and
some suggestions for remedies:
1. Make sure the Data Xchanger USB device is plugged into a USB port
on your computer and the Timex Trainer® device agent desktop
software is running.
2. Press MODE until Sync Mode appears.
HARDWARE ERROR: This message appears if there is an internal error
with the watch’s radio transceiver. Contact Timex Customer Service.
3. You will see the message SYNC READY indicating the watch is ready to
initiate communication with a PC.
SYNC ERROR: This message indicates that a communication error was
encountered. This is usually caused by interference from a wireless
device such as a cordless phone, wireless keyboard or mouse, or
Bluetooth accessory.
4. Press HEART RATE to begin the sync process.
5. The watch will suspend and reset all other watch activity and begin
searching for a PC. You will see the message SEARCHING FOR PC.
6. Plug the USB device into a computer and open the device agent
software.
LINK TO PC BUSY: This message will appear if the PC is already in
communication with another Timex watch. If this message appears
regularly and you are certain that there are no other Timex watches
within 20 feet of your PC, contact Timex Customer Service.
7. When the link is established with a PC, the watch will display the
device message SYNCING WATCH until the sync process is finished at
which time the watch will display the message SYNCING DONE. The
watch will sound an alert and return to the SYNC READY state.
NO PC FOUND: If the watch is unable to establish a link to your PC
within 30 seconds, it will display this message. Check to make sure
that the device agent software is running and that the Timex Data
Xchanger USB is plugged into a working USB port. You may also try
removing the Data Xchanger and plugging it in again before retrying
the sync process.
