1 INTRODUCTION  
Congratulations on your purchase of the HB 8M00. We hope that you will  
enjoy using the Heart Meter and the benefits of the wireless transmission to  
send/receive data to/from the controller or to PC. In exercise or sports, your  
heart naturally speeds up in pumping blood to the body in accordance with  
the increased energy level. The Heart Meter can calculate this increase  
expressed as the number of beats per minute (bpm) to determine a target  
heart rate safe for each individual.  
More information about the target heart rate zone, maximum  
heart rate etc... can be found on:  
With the data stored on your PC, you can transfer it to programs like  
SportTracks, Perfect Session, ...  
2 SAFETY NOTES  
Using a Heart Monitor is NOT a substitute for professional medical  
attention. If you suffer from heart disorder, illness or have recently taken up  
fitness training, it is advisable that you seek a doctor or talk to your trainer  
and work out a fitness plan that suits you.  
The watch should only be used as a guide in maintaining a safe heart beat  
rate for exercises. It should NOT be relied upon as a medical heart rate  
monitor. If you are uncertain about how your exercise program will impact  
on your heart, please consult a physician.  
3 CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
DO NOT expose the watch to extreme weather conditions or cleaning  
agents and solvents. Avoid dropping or rough handling of the watch. Avoid  
fastening the strap too tightly. Clean the watch with a dry soft cloth or a soft  
cloth moistened with water and mild detergent. Store the watch in a dry  
place when not in use.  
4 CHANGING THE BATTERY  
If you are not confident with electronics, let the battery be changed by a  
professional. Do not open the watch yourself.

8.2 HEART RATE MODE OVERVIEW  
8.2.1 Heartbeat measurement  
See “8 Timekeeping - heart rate mode main menu” how to enter the heart  
beat measurement menu (HR).  
PRECAUTIONS  
• Avoid fastening the strap too tight.  
• Do not bend or fold the chest belt for preventing damage.  
• Wetting the skin, where there is contact with the conductive area of  
the chest belt, will improve the conduction and get a more stable sig-  
nal.  
• The physical condition of an individual might effect the intensity of  
measured signal.  
• Avoid using the heart rate monitor close to a trolley car, a tram stop,  
transformer, electric substation and high-tension distribution lines etc.  
The radio signal will be affected under influence of the environment  
from high voltage and strong electromagnetic fields.

8.2.2 Using the transmitter belt.  
THE CHEST STRAP MUST BE PAIRED WITH THE WATCH.  
SEE “7.1 To Pair the watch with THE chest belt” FOR  
DETAILED PAIRING OPERATION!  
Fasten the fastener at one end. Try the chest belt on your chest and loosen  
the stretch band if necessary.  
Adjust the length of the stretch band until it feels conformable. The stretch  
band must cling to the chest. Fasten the fastener at the other end. Adjust  
the sensor to the center of your chest and be sure the backside of the  
sensor clings to your chest and touches the skin.  
The chest belt has to be worn while using the heart rate function.  
Moisten the chest belt conductive pads with saliva of ECG-gel  
(available at you local pharmacy) in order to ensure good contact  
with the skin at all time.

- When the heart rate function (sensor) is activated, the watch will  
aggregate the readings of the exercise into the current ‘session’.  
- The data of the current session can be saved (into the ‘daily record’) /  
reviewed by the heart rate mode function menu, see “8.2.10 Heart  
rate mode function menu” under “ MENU 1: Save” for the detailed  
operations.  
- The ‘daily record’ can be reviewed by the heart rate mode function  
menu too. The watch can store up to 10 daily records.

acquired heart rate = 131 (by measurement)  
%EMHR = 131 / 190 x 100% = 69%  
8.2.6 Heart rate zones  
Exercise zones are established by setting the Upper and Lower Heart Rate  
Limits. You can use the fitness (preset limits = 65% and 85% of the EMHR)  
or your own customized limits.  
Use the following Heart Rate Zone Chart to select the zone you wish to  
exercise in.  
You should consult a medical professional when selecting a training

manufacturing faults free of charge, by either repairing or exchanging the
