On certainbatteries this symbol might be used in combination with a chemical symbol. Thechemical symbols for mercury (Hg) or lead (Pb) are added if the battery containsmore than 0.0005% mercury or 0.004% lead. By ensuring these products andbatteries are disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potentially negativeconsequences for the environment and human health which could otherwise becaused by inappropriate waste handling. The recycling of the materials will helpto conserve natural resources.In case of products that for safety, performance or data integrity reasons require apermanent connection with an incorporated battery, this battery should bereplaced by qualified service staff only. To ensure that the battery and theelectrical and electronic equipment will be treated properly, hand over theseproducts at end-of-life to the applicable collection point for the recycling ofelectrical and electronic equipment. For all other batteries, please view thesection on how to remove the battery from the product safely. Hand the batteryover to the applicable collection point for the recycling of waste batteries. Formore detailed information about recycling of this product or battery, pleasecontact your local Civic Office, your household waste disposal service or the shopwhere you purchased the product or battery.Applicable accessories: USB cradleNotes on useThis is the wearable device designed to support sports training or activities suchas running, jogging and walking. It should not be relied upon for medicalpurposes, research, experiments, or operations that require precise professionalmeasurements.Notes on using this device• Do not use the device in places where the inability to hear sounds from yoursurroundings would be dangerous.• When using the device in public or private facilities, follow the rules of thatfacility.• Do not use the device while swimming in a river or in the ocean.Water resistant performance of this deviceThe water resistant specifications of this device are equivalent to IEC 60529“Degrees of protection against ingress of water (IP Code)” IPX5/8.* Note thefollowing points when using this device in water.• Choose the size of swimming earbuds that fit firmly and snugly into your ears.**• Bluetooth and some measurement functions (heart rate, pressure, GPS etc.) donot work correctly when this device is used in water.* Under our test conditions, this device maintained its operability even whensubmersed in water to a depth of 2.0 m for 30 minutes with the swimming earbudsattached.** Sound may become muffled if the earbuds are not fitted firmly in your ears andwater gets into the gap between your ears and the device. Choose the best fittingearbuds for your left and right ears, and be sure that the device fits firmly into yourears. If the device is wet, pat the headphones gently against the palm of your handapproximately 5 to 10 times. If this does not remove the water, remove the earbuds,place the headphones on a dry cloth and then pat them gently another 5 to10 times.Heart Rate Measurements and TrainingExpression of “Heart Rate” on this devicePulse measurement is the generally recommended method of determining yourheart rate, which is a rough indicator of intensity of exercise.This device uses a built-in sensor to measure the pulse from your ear. Results ofthose measurements are used to monitor the amount of exercise done or for“heart rate training”. “Pulse” here expresses “heart rate” to make it easier for usersto understand.TrainingPlease consult your medical professional before beginning or changing anyexercise program.If at any time you experience dizziness or do not feel well while exercising, stopimmediately and consult your medical professional.This product contains various training menus, and each menu is createdaccording to the theories and ideas of each trainer. Consider each menu as aguide, and be sure to exercise in a way that suits your athletic ability.What is Heart Rate Training?Heart Rate Training is a type of training that uses the heart rate. You can seehow hard you are exercising by looking at your heart rate during exercise. It ispossible to achieve effective yet safe training results by managing andcontrolling the intensity of training based on your heart rate.Effective, Safe TrainingThe improvements in achieved results differs according to the difference in theset heart rate. By exercising in order to achieve a target zone, you can achievethe maximum results using the minimum amount of effort.Additionally, managing heart rate during exercise helps prevent you fromover-exercising.Target Heart Rate (Karvonen Formula)• Target heart rate (beats per minute) = Exercise intensity x (maximum heartrate – resting heart rate) + resting heart rate• Maximum heart rate = estimated as 220 – age* When the heart rate increases due to increased exercise intensity, maximum heartrate is the fastest level at which the heart beats when exercising at full pace. It canbe calculated using the formula above. (However, it is normally measured bymeans of an exercise tolerance test.)* Exercise intensity converted to 0 to 100%Zoning based on Exercise Intensity (Exercise Intensity Based on the KarvonenFormula)Zone 1: Aerobic exercise zone (approx. 50 – 65%)Effective for increasing fat metabolism and controlling blood pressure.Zone 2: Aerobic + anaerobic exercise zone (approx. 65 – 80%)Effective for strengthening cardiac function, overall physical stamina.Zone 3: Anaerobic zone (approx. 80 – 95%)Effective for improving exercise intensity limits and competitive ability.* From the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) guidelinesThere are many variations of heart rate trainingThere are variations in how exercise intensity zones and target heart rates arecalculated between coaches. It is essential to remember that no matter whichone you choose, it is important to exercise within your limitations withoutover-exercising.Safe UseAnyone who has health concerns or problems should consult their doctor ormedical institution to receive advice on their condition before starting toexercise.When exercising using heart rate training, it is important to do so within yourown limitations in order to prevent injury and improve physical health.This document is a translation of the original Japanese, which was written under thesupervision of Shizuo Sakamoto (professor at the Faculty of Sport Sciences, WasedaUniversity, as of January 2015). The heart rate training in the basic training menu of the“Smart B-Trainer” application was also created under the supervision of ProfessorSakamoto.SpecificationsInterfaceUSBHi-Speed USB (USB 2.0 compliant)BluetoothBluetooth Specifications• Communication system: Bluetooth specification version 4.0• Output: Bluetooth specification Power Class 2• Maximum communication range: Line of sight approx. 10 meters*1• Frequency band: 2.4 GHz band (2.4000 GHz - 2.4835 GHz)• Compatible Bluetooth profiles*2– A2DP/AVRCP/HFP/HSP/SPP• Supported Codec*3: SBC*4/AAC*1 The range may vary depending on the communication environment.*2 Bluetooth profiles are standardized according to the purpose of the Bluetooth device.*3 Codec indicates the audio signal compression and conversion format.*4 SBC stands for Subband Codec.Sensor• Heart Rate• GPS• Accelerometer• Gyro• e-Compass• PressureMeasurable value• Distance*• Time• Cadence*• Speed*• Heart Rate• Steps• Calories*• Stride• Pace*• Tracks• Elevation* Measurements can be taken during exercise such as running, jogging and walking.However, measurements may not be calculated correctly during other forms ofexercise.MicrophoneMonauralOutput (headphones)Frequency response20 Hz to 20,000 Hz (when playing data file, single signal measurement)Power SourceBuilt-in Rechargeable lithium-ion BatteryUSB power (from a computer via a USB Cradle of the player)Charging TimeUSB-based chargingApprox. 1.5 hoursOperating temperature5 °C to 35 °CMassApprox. 43 gWater resistanceIPX5/IPX8 (IEC 60529) or equivalent** with swimming earbuds attachedCapacity (User available capacity)*16 GBActual available memory for other contents*Approx. 14.3 GB = 15,354,691,584 bytes* Available capacity may vary.
