3.1 Be outdoors
The R300 is not intended for operation indoors or under water

time and date information, and to calculate distance and
speed. For best results, always use the R300 outdoors with an
unobstructed view of the sky.
3.2 Fit the R300
The R300 is designed to be worn on the left upper arm. The
easiest way to fit the unit is to feed the strap through the
fastener to create a loose enclosure. Then slide your left arm
through the enclosure and tighten the strap after the unit is in a
comfortable position.
