Tips & Warnings
Moisten fingers and try again if heart rate does not appear within 10 seconds. Wear the Mio for a while to allow a layer of moisture to build between watch and skin. Do not press the sensors with force. Clean back of the Mio and sensors with a soft cloth regularly. Replace battery when calculations vary significantly, or digits freeze or go blank.
