Congratulations on your purchase of this Sportline Solo 920
Heart Rate Watch.
We commend your efforts on taking steps for healthier living.
Measuring your heart rate is fun and easy, and can help
manage your ‘heart health’.
While the Sportline Solo 920 Heart Rate watch works like a
standard sports watch, it includes an advanced heart rate
sensing technology - S-Pulse™ - that provides easy and
accurate contact heart rate readings.
S-Pulse™ is a patented heart rate sensing technology that
measures the electrical signals on your skin – in the same
manner that an EKG or electrocardiogram does.
While the Sportline Solo 920 Heart Rate watch attaches to your
wrist like other watch products, it does not measure or sense
your pulse at your wrist. It instead uses S-Pulse™ technology
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
to sense your heart rate by measuring your EKG signal.
How to Measure Your Heart Rate
To get your heart rate reading, just follow these simple steps:
1. Place the Sportline Solo 920 Heart Rate Watch on your wrist,
adjusting for a snug, comfortable fit.
2. Place your finger on the Sportline Solo 920
Heart Rate Watch’s sensor, as shown,
and press gently for 3-8 seconds.
Be sure to activate the Heart Rate
mode by pressing the bottom metal
sensor so that the display flashes. It
is best to use the flat ‘pads’ of
your fingers, and not the
fingertips.
3. A ‘beep’ will sound and your heart rate will be
displayed. It’s that easy!
Because the Sportline Solo 920 Heart Rate Watch is a sensitive
monitoring device that reads your EKG signals, reading times
will vary. If you don’t get a reading in 3-8 seconds, wait a
couple of minutes and try again. This gives the Sportline Solo
920 Heart Rate Watch a chance to settle in and pick up your
electrical signals.
Your heart rate will remain displayed once measured,
and will remain displayed for 7 seconds after you release
the sensor button.

• The Sportline Solo 920 Heart Rate Watch must be attached
to your wrist in order for the Heart Rate Measure function
to work.
• Proper finger pad contact is very important and affects the
heart rate reading time.
• For those users with dry skin, thick or calloused fingers,
low heart rate signal strength (EKG strength), minimal
padding on your fingers, or users located in dry
environments, please see our Helpful Hints section.
• The Heart Rate Measure function is not intended for use or
operation in or under water.
Helpful Hints in Measuring Heart Rate
If you are having difficulty measuring your heart rate, you may
want to try the following steps. Try each of these in order until
you successfully measure your heart rate:
1. Make sure the Sportline Solo 920 Heart Rate Watch is
snugly strapped to your wrist. A loose fit makes it more
difficult to properly measure your heart rate. Stop if OK or
2. Press gently with enough pressure to activate the heart rate
measure mode. Muscle ‘noise’ from pressing too hard can
make it difficult to measure your heart rate. Stop if OK or
3. Make sure that the metal back of the Heart Rate Watch is
laying flat on your skin. Stop if OK or
4. Make sure your wrist and fingers are clean and free from

dirt, oils, or lotions. Stop if OK or
5. Stay still, and relax your arms on a stable surface while
taking your heart rate. Stop if OK or
6. Clean the front sensor and back metal plate with a mild
soap and water or similar cleaning solution.
7. Moisten with water the pads of the fingers that you are
using to contact the sensors on the face of the watch.
Stop if OK or
8. Moisten with water the surface between the back metal
plate of the watch and the skin on your wrist.

About the Heart Rate Target Zone and Alert
The Heart Rate Target Zone feature helps you compare your
acquired heart rate with your target zone when the Heart Rate
Alert feature is ON:
• If your heart rate is within the target zone, the Watch
will beep once and display your heart rate.
• If your heart rate is lower than your target zone lower
limit, the Watch will beep twice and your heart rate will be

displayed with an “L” (L = Low).
• If your heart rate is higher than your target zone upper
limit, the Watch will be beep twice and your heart rate will
be displayed with an “H” (H = High).
Example: Debbie’s target zone is 80-120 bpm (beats per min.).
After 5 minutes of walking, Debbie measures her heart rate.
Debbie’s heart rate is: “L 72”. She can decide to pick up her
pace so her next reading falls within her target range, or she can
stay at her current pace.
Setting the Standard Heart Rate Zone
Note: If you are new to exercise, have a heart condition, or
have questions/concerns about your heart and heart rate zone,
please consult your doctor.
By entering your age and gender, the Watch will calculate your
standard heart rate range.
1. While in the Heart Rate Target Zone mode, press the MODE
button for 2-3 seconds until the display flashes.
2. To enter your age, press the ST/STP button to increase and
RESET button to decrease the setting.
3. After your age is entered, press the MODE button to select

•
When ON, your upper and lower limits will now appear in
the display, and your Heart Rate Alert function will now be ON.
Relative Heart Rate
Relative Heart Rate is your current heart rate divided by your
maximum heart rate, and can be a useful reference to manage
how hard you are working during your exercise.
•
Maximum Heart Rate is calculated as: 220 less your age
(220 – your age).
•
Your Relative heart rate will be displayed as a percentage
when displaying your heart rate.
Example of Relative Heart Rate:
Tom is 30 years old.
His heart rate measured as: 132.
Maximum heart rate 220 – age 30 = 190 bpm.
132/190 = 70% is Toms relative heart rate.

Note: Relative heart rate will only be displayed if the Target Rate
Alert Feature is turned on when you measure your heart rate.

How this Sportline Solo 920 Heart Rate Watch Works
It is useful to understand the basics of how the S-Pulse™
sensing technology works – as it will perform differently on
people of different age, skin type, body type, EKG or electro-
cardiogram signal strength, among others.
The S-Pulse™ technology measures the electronic signals that
pass through your body – that result from the beating of your
heart. Many are familiar with the EKG waveform – from either
personal experiences while at the hospital, or from popular
television medical shows. It is this same signal that passes
through your body that S-Pulse™ measures.
This measurement is obtained by the Watch’s two metal sensors.
The back metal plate of the Watch wrist is actually a primary
sensor that measures these electronic signals off your arm.
The ‘EKG’ measurement is done when you place your fingers
from one hand on the top sensor on the Watch that is attached to
your opposite arm. This creates a loop across your body that the
Watch can now read.
• The Sportline Solo 920 Heart Rate watch must be attached
to your wrist in order for the Heart Rate Measure function
to work.
