Loosen your shoelaces. Place the rungee cord beneath 2 or 3 lace crossings.

Snap the rungee cord into the slot at the front of the pod. Tighten your laces and tie your shoes comfortably.

The foot pod should be firmly attached with the narrow end of the pod facing your toe. If the pod is loose, place the cord beneath another lace crossing.

The pod may remain attached to your shoe between activities. Also, the cord may be laced into the shoe and remain there for convenience and added security.

Foot Pod Buttons

The foot pod has three states (ON, OFF and COMM LEARN) that are controlled by pressing the rubber button. Unique sounds confirm the state you have entered.

PRESSES

WHAT THEY DO

ONE

Turns pod ON. When the pod is off, push and hold the button until you hear a beep. On button release, you will hear a single confirmation beep. The pod is now ready for your activity. When the foot pod is communicating with the watch, the foot icon on the watch display will be lit

TWO

Turns pod OFF. Pressing the button twice in quick succession turns the pod off. A descending tone confirms that the foot pod is off.

THREE

Allows a watch to learn a foot pod ID. Pressing the button three times in quick succession resets the COMM Address. Three beeps confirms that the foot pod is in COMM LEARN mode. Now any FS-1 watch can learn the foot pod's ID. Once the watch learns a foot pod's ID, the foot pod will return to normal operation.

Sleep Mode

If the foot pod is on, but you haven't moved for five minutes, it will turn itself off to conserve energy. You may hear the descending tone as the pod turns off. Simply press the button once to turn the pod on. If you are in the middle of an activity, the FS-1 will continue to monitor from where you left off.

    CARE AND MAINTENANCE CONTENTS

    Your FS-1 is a precise instrument that should be treated with care.

    Replacing Batteries

    Battery Type

    Both the foot pod and watch run on a CR 2032 coin cell battery. These batteries are widely available. In normal use (30 minutes of running or walking per day), the watch and foot pod batteries will last up to 3 months.

    Low Battery Alert

    The watch will alert you if one of your sensor batteries is running low.

    Foot Pod Battery Low:

    FOOT BATT

    Heart Rate Monitor Battery Low:

    HRM BATT

    You have approximately one day of use left when this message appears on your watch display. Your logs will be cleared if the battery runs out. Replace the low battery soon.

    Removing and Replacing Foot Pod and Watch Batteries

    To open the foot pod or watch battery door, fit a quarter in the slot and turn counter-clockwise. Turn the door until it unlocks and continue turning until the door lifts out of the hole. Remove the old battery, count to 20 to allow the watch to reset and replace with a CR-2032. Make sure the writing on the battery is visible. Replace the door by lining up the arrow with the "open" label, inserting, and turning clockwise until locked in place. Make sure the o-ring is intact to maintain water resistance. Your LOG will be cleared when the battery is removed. Be sure to offload your LOG to FS Interactive often.

    Removing and Replacing NetLink Batteries

    The NetLink uses two AA batteries. On many PCs there will never be a need to replace these batteries. If they run low, however, your Netlink software will alert you with a "Change NetLink Batteries" message.

    Replacing the Rungee Cord

    If the cord in your foot pod breaks, order a new rungee cord at www.fitsense.com, or use a hair elastic band that has been cut in two. Feed the cord through the hole. Tie the cord with a square knot. Tighten the knot. You are ready to lace your foot pod into your shoe as normal.
