IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Congratulations on your purchase of Mio SLICE , the 24/7 activity tracker that measures your Personal

Be sure to consult your doctor before beginning a new exercise program.
While Mio SLICE provides accurate heart rate measurements, it is not a medical device. The SLICE and USB
charger contain strong magnets. If you use a pacemaker, defibrillator, or other implanted electronic devices,
consult your doctor before using a SLICE. See Battery Care for important battery care and battery safety
information.

PAI is revolutionary new system that turns your heart rate data into a single, personal score, showing how
much activity you need to stay healthy. Everyone’s goal is the same, to keep your PAI score above 100 over a
7-day rolling window to maintain optimal health, but what it takes to achieve that goal is a personalized
experience.
PAI points are calculated based on your heart rate data and personal profile. To earn more PAI points,
increase the intensity of whatever activity you choose to get your heart rate up.
Your PAI Score and PAI Points Earned Today can be found anytime on your Mio SLICE and in the Mio PAI
app.
Learn more about PAI at mioglobal.com/PAI.

TROUBLE WITH PAIRING MIO SLICE TO YOUR PHONE
Try the following tips if you have trouble pairing Mio SLICE to your smartphone:
• Check that you are connecting to the correct SLICE device. Before pairing is complete, SLICE is listed
with a 4-digit code appended to the name. Match the 4-digit code to your device serial number, found
on the back of your SLICE. E.g. If your serial number is “60P00014DCI”, SLICE will show up in the app
as “SLICE-014D”.
• Check that your phone is compatible with the Mio PAI app at mioglobal.com/compatibility.
• Turn off your phone’s Bluetooth. After a few seconds, turn Bluetooth on again. Retry the pairing process.
• Force close the PAI app and reopen it. Follow the app’s prompts to retry the pairing process.
• Force close all apps on your phone and reopen the PAI app. Follow the app’s prompts to retry the
pairing process.
• Perform a factory reset on the SLICE (refer to R esetting Mio SLICE & Pairing To A New Phone) ).
Note that this will erase all data stored on your SLICE.

USING MIO SLICE
WEARING MIO SLICE
Mio SLICE tracks your activity 24/7. View your daily progress by scrolling through the screens on the display.
History and more details are available in the Mio PAI app.
For accurate heart rate monitoring, wear Mio SLICE as shown below:
1. Fasten the SLICE snugly, about
1-2 finger widths above your wrist
bone. The optical sensor should
make good contact with your skin.
2. If you have a smaller wrist, wear
the SLICE higher on your forearm.
3. For cyclists or users with concave
wrists, wear the SLICE higher and on
the underside of your forearm, since
bending of the wrist may affect the
heart rate reading.

AUTOMATIC HEART RATE SAMPLING
Mio SLICE User Guide 9
In addition, SLICE will capture your heart rate each time you wake its display or open the Mio PAI app.
Mio SLICE monitors your activity level 24/7 to automatically adjust its heart rate sampling rate. When your
heart rate rises, SLICE will increase its sampling rate to ensure all your activity is captured accurately.
SLICE has four heart rate sampling rates:
• Rest: SLICE captures your heart rate every five minutes.
• Low Intensity: SLICE captures your heart rate every minute.
• Moderate to High Intensity: SLICE captures your heart rate every second, continuously
• Sleep: SLICE analyzes your sleep, captures your heart rate every five minutes, and measures your resting
heart rate.
WORKOUT MODE
To record an activity, put Mio SLICE into Workout Mode by pressing down the button for 2 seconds. SLICE
will display “GO!”, then start the chronograph timer. In Workout Mode, SLICE uses high intensity sampling
rate, capturing your heart rate every second.
SLICE will display screens specific to the current activity session:
To end and save the activity session, press down the button for 2 seconds. SLICE will exit Workout Mode and
return to All-Day Mode.

SYNCING ACTIVITY DATA
STREAMING HEART RATE TO OTHER APPS AND DEVICES
Mio SLICE automatically measures and saves your activity data. Open the Mio PAI app to see your 7-day
progress and to review each day in more detail.
If SLICE remains paired to the PAI app, it will automatically sync each time you open the app. SLICE will also
sync periodically to your phone if the PAI app is running in the background.
Mio SLICE can stream your heart rate to any fitness apps and devices that support Bluetooth or ANT+ heart
rate streaming. For best results, put SLICE into Workout Mode and ensure your phone remains nearby to stay
connected.
Mio SLICE can store up to 7 continuous days of data. Memory is cleared each time the SLICE connects and
syncs to the Mio PAI app. If SLICE has not been synced in 7 days, it will overwrite the oldest day to capture
new data.
