Choose a Strap
Before you start, it's important to decide which strap is best for the type of workout you'll be performing. Follow the quick guidelines below or read our full list of recommendations here: Which Strap Should I Use for my MZ-Switch?
Wrist
Use for non-gripping activity and repeatable movements, including swimming.
Forearm
Use for improved accuracy during non-gripping activity and repeatable movements,
except swimming.
Chest
Use for the most accurate readings during all types of exercises, such as HIIT or all high-intensity functional movements, except swimming.
How to Wear
Wrist
Slide your hand through the loop and pull the strap to tighten against your skin. The module should be positioned two fingers above your wrist bone. Ensure the band is comfortably snug.
The button will turn on the device, and it will flash according to its level of charge. To turn off the device, press and hold the button until you hear 3 beeps indicating it has disconnected.
Forearm
Slide your hand through the loop and position just above or beneath the elbow with the module facing out. The button will turn on the device, and it will flash according to its level of charge. To turn off the device, press and hold the button until you hear 3 beeps indicating it has disconnected.
Chest
From the wrist or arm strap, simply release the module out of the wrist cradle by pushing down until the module pops out. Place the chest strap around your body and position the module over your sternum.
Ensure the sensors on the back of the strap have direct skin contact and wet the sensors for better conductivity. The belt activates once it detects your heart; do not press the power button in this location. It will simply turn on once it locates your heart rate.
Note: There will be no LED lights on the module when worn on the chest.
To turn off the device, remove the chest strap and you will hear 3 beeps to signify the mode is no longer reading a heart rate. You do not need to manually turn the device off.
