TIME & DATE

• Displays time and date

H. 

TAKE YOUR HEART RATE

Heart rate appears in beats per minute (BPM). The small dig-
its at the right display the percentage of your current heart 
rate to your maximum heart rate (up to 99%). MIO calculates 
this percentage using your personal data. A maximum heart 
rate is an estimate with a variability of up to 15 BPM.

You will return to the previous mode 5 seconds after 
removing your finger pads from the MIO Sensors.

TROUBLESHOOTING POINTERS

1. If you don’t get your heart rate within 10 seconds, 

moisten your finger pads & try again. It helps to wear 
your MIO for a little while to allow a layer of moisture 
to build up between the back of the watch & your arm.
Do not press too hard on sensors.

2. To optimize readings, occasionally clean the back of 

your MIO case and the metal UPPER and LOWER MIO 
sensors with a clean soft cloth.

3. If MIO’s calculations start to vary significantly from 

what you have come to expect, if the digits freeze or if 
the face is blank, replace MIO’s battery (see Section TO 
CHANGE MIO’S BATTERY on the other side).
