FR60 Owner’s Manual 15Training ModeThe ve commonly accepted heart rate zones are numbered from 1 to 5 according to increasing intensity. Generally, heart rate zones are calculated based on percentages of your maximum heart rate. How Do Heart Rate Zones Affect Your Fitness Goals?Knowing your heart rate zones can help you measure and improve your tness by understanding and applying these principles:Your heart rate is a good measure of exercise intensity.Training in certain heart rate zones can help you improve cardiovascular capacity and strength.Knowing your heart rate zones can prevent you from overtraining and can decrease your risk of injury.You can set the low and high heart •••rate limits for each zone. If you know your maximum heart rate, you can use the table on page 16 to determine the best heart rate zone for your tness objectives.If you do not know your maximum heart rate, use one of the calculators available on the Internet.190-01001-00_0A.indd 15 2009-04-07 9:52:10 AM

FR60 Owner’s Manual 37AppendixTroubleshootingProblem Solution/AnswerThe buttons don’t respond. How do I restart the FR60?Press and hold MODE and ENTER simultaneously to restart the FR60 software. You must reset the time and your custom settings. If you are still having problems, remove and then replace the battery (see page 30). How do I clear all user data?This procedure deletes all information that you have entered. Press and hold MODE, LIGHT/ , and UP simultaneously. This also restores the factory settings. Workout data is deleted. How do I set the time to AM or PM?Verify that the time mode is set to 12 (12 hour). Press UP and DOWN to select the correct hour. The A or P icon appears below the seconds on the time page. For more information, see page 11. The FR60 will not send data to my computer.See page 23 to enable computer pairing. The heart rate monitor or foot pod will not pair with the FR60.Stay 10 m away from other ANT sensors while pairing.Bring the FR60 within range (3 m) of the heart rate monitor while pairing.If the problem persists, replace the battery. •••190-01001-00_0A.indd 37 2009-04-07 9:52:18 AM
38 FR60 Owner’s ManualAppendixProblem Solution/AnswerThe heart rate monitor strap is too big.A smaller elastic strap is sold separately. Go to http://buy.garmin.com.The heart rate data is inaccurate or erratic.Make sure the heart rate monitor is snug against your body.Warm up for 5–10 minutes. If the problem persists, continue with the following suggestions.Reapply moisture to the sensors. Use water, saliva, or electrode gel. Clean the sensors. Dirt and sweat residue on the sensor can interfere with heart rate signals.Synthetic fabrics that rub or ap against the heart rate monitor can create static electricity that interferes with heart rate signals. Wear a cotton shirt or wet your shirt if suitable for your activity.Position the heart rate monitor on your back instead of your chest.Strong electromagnetic elds and some 2.4 GHz wireless sensors can interfere with your heart rate monitor. Sources of interference may include very high-voltage power lines, electric motors, microwave ovens, 2.4 GHz cordless phones, and wireless LAN access points. After you move away from the source of interference, your heart rate data should return to normal.••••••190-01001-00_0A.indd 38 2009-04-07 9:52:18 AM
